Guys, I can't say enough good things about our Chad Henne. He was putting the ball where it needed to be all game but our crap for WR's cant seem to catch it. It look as though Teddy has rubbed off on the rest of our WR corps. So I say kudos to Henne, as I really believe he would have led us on a game winning drive if our WR's would have helped him out and caught the ball.
 
pretty frustrating isn't it... i thought he looked better then someone with as few starts as he has had....dropped passes friggin' piss me off.. as we start to see weaker opponents hopefully we get to see some of our other depth... i mean technically, if we sweep the rest of our games (..ahem.) we can still finish 11-5. ...zzz.zzz.
 
Dropped balls are KILLING ME! I thought it was bad when it was just Chris Chambers by himself, and then Ginn by himself, but now everybody's doing it.

On the last drive alone it was very upsetting.
 
i dont blame ginn for his drop on the last drive, he isnt known as a leaper and that was a high pass. I'd faster blame Hartline for the play before where he had it, excellent pass but he dropped it, it was a 1st down too. at least camarillo can catch everything wow did you see his catch on the last play of the game. but even bess dropped a pass, made a few tough catches as well. our lack of weapons in the passing game is hurting us big time.
 
I recall quite a few WR's available in FA this year....
Amazing how much faith Sparano had in Ginn this off season.
This position better be taken care of in next years draft.
 
I think he needs a larger helmet.

Looks like they squeeze his large melon into a helmet that's 2-3 sizes too small for him.

I'm surprised he can see with his forehead squished down over his eyes.

Is it just me?

No. Stupid CBS cut away from the game with 30 seconds left to go to the start of the Giants game. What was Camarillo's catch and how far did the drive progress?

Really? An NFL receiver gets 2 hands on the ball in a crucial situation and we're going to make excuses for why he ONCE AGAIN didn't come through? He didn't drop it cuz it was "high". He dropped it cuz he sucks and he's unreliable. TWO HANDS ON THE BALL!
 
This is really going to be a problem going forward until we get some playmakers at the WR and TE position. Its pretty clear we are lacking them severely.
 
I think Chad he your best option in years.

While the Wild Cat does work, do you (being Dolphin fans) think that formation is hampering his growth.

Most QB's in the league are rhythm QB's and taking him out after a few completions, or lining him outside definitely confuses the defense but I think it also takes him out of what he's locking in on.

It's a tough task to ask of any QB but to ask that of a freshly inserted QB must annoy the crap out of him.

There was 1 drive in particular where he completed I think 4 in a row, then they took him out for 2 plays and asked him to complete a 3rd and 9, it just seems like a tough scenario for Henne to be in.

Hopefully as you face these weaker opponents you can see what Chad can really do running just a straight offense.

On the other hand that drive with Pat White was pretty impressive too, it seems the WC causes problems for defenses but for OC play calling as well.
 
Was a pretty lack-luster performance by our WR's. Ginn just looks scared on every play unless it's a fly pattern down the field where nobody can lay a hit on him. Still drops 99% of those. But I agree, many of the other WR's just looked as mediocre as the rest of the NFL thinks they are. Although Cam had a pretty good catch at the end of the game (too bad it was a waste). I think until we spend a top pick or $$ for f/a true #1 WR, we are not going to have any passing threat against anyone. As painful as it's been to watch, you can see many of our younger guys (QB, DB's, OL, etc.) progressing with the playing experience. Problem is, until we shore up a few spots (WR being at or near the top of that list), we just won't be a contender for the SB.

he made a one handed catch stretching for the ball too, think Gadson that kind of catch. the drive ended on that play cause time ran out we were down by 10 the game was lost at this point

I think the Front Office shoulders the blame for this. Parcells had made comments about Ginn from day 1 yet we have gone into 2 seasons now with no clear cut number 1 receiver.
 
Believe it or not Henne was part of the problem. I agree these receivers need to make the catches, but he does not routinely put the ball in the best spot to be caught. You want to say Henne is doing a decent job I will agree. You tell me Henne is playing like a savior I have to disagree. I know Henne is young and should get better, but he is not playing great right now. Can we please stop talking about this guy like he is Dan Marino.
