Henne had a great game, and I hope he continues to play well. He did get lucky on a couple of plays that should have been intercepted, but I did see improvement. It is however just 1 game. Let's be patience and see if he can continue to improve before we decide that we have found the answer at QB.
I think "great" is too strong of a word, not when he led his O to 17 pts during the competitive portion of the game BUT he certainly looked confident and he played pretty well. That should at least give you guys some hope for him. let's see if he can build upon this game.

Last time I checked, ginn was drafted to return kicks. There was never a mention of him being a number one wideout. He couldn't help where he was drafted and the hefty south Florida expectations. Ginn now has 6 returns for touchdowns in his career. Not shabby.
We left some points on the field, but I don't really blame Henne for them. I say great because he did not kill us with turnovers. I thought he made good decision and some nice throws. I would be singing a different tune had NE actually caught those two bad passes, but he got lucky and I will take a little luck. I also like the fact that he is now willing to tuck it and run. He is no Vick, but it will give defenses something to think about.
The dropped INT in the endzone is entirely on Marshall. He points to the inside, cuts in, then cuts back outside right as Henne is throwing the ball. You can't do that to your QB.
2 for 13 on 3rd down. as good as he looked you cannot ignore that stat. lets wait and see what happens with Henne after a couple of games. don't plan on tearing down the Marino statue just yet.
