DAVIE - Dolphins rookie quarterback Chad Henne seemed to be working on mental overload as he wrapped up the final practice of the three-day rookie minicamp on Sunday.

He admitted that he didn't have a sharp practice, and at one point was told to run a lap after blowing an assignment.

"I forgot the snap count,'' said Henne, who was picked No. 57 in the second round last week. "I went on one instead of our second sound. I deserved it.''

Henne said the last time he had received a similar punishment was back in high school for, "cussing.''

Henne was overthrowing most of his receivers Sunday, but some of that had to do with learning 150 pages of the playbook in four days and then trying to assimilate it on the field with rookie receivers he's never thrown to before.

"I was kind of inconsistent with my throws, missed some assignments, but other than I felt pretty good, just getting my feet wet,'' Henne said. "It's tough as a quarterback you have to know what everybody is doing, know your checks, where your progressions are, your footwork. Once I get back here again I'll feel more comfortable and do better.''

Uhh ohh,

I looks as though recently drafted Fins QB Chad Henne had a rough practice today. Gosh, I wonder what all those who are sure he's our savior will say about someone with so much upside and promise having a bad day with something seemingly as simple as rookie camp? After all, we're not talking full camp or even mini camp, but just rookie camp. How hard can it be to have no pressure just 3 and 5 step drops trowing outs and ups?

I can't wait for all the excuses that will fly, and how the Henne lovers will turn this around and somehow blame Beck for all his flaws, while protecting Henne with excuses for his poor day. Gotta tell ya, I was happy we drafted Henne and I could care less about these reports especially this early in camp. I just thought I'd use some of the same idiotic logic in my posts for Henne that those trying to trash Beck try to use. It would be nice if we could draft players and enjoy the fact that we are always trying to upgrade the talent or improve the depth at all positions without trashing young players on this team that have hardly had a shot to prove anything.

I am not a Henne supporter at all, but read the same thing with Beck last year.
 
not a henne suporter?

you hope he fails?

why for gods sake?
 
When Henne has a 4:1 turnover:TD and gets sacked once every 12 snaps, go ahead and boast. Until then..........................who cares.
 
Uh! Oh! He's a bust!!! Let's start the "draft Tebow" threads!!!!

Let me rephrase. I didn't like the pic, considering our other needs. I don't beleive he is or will be better than Beck. Do not support is a bad choice of words. I would be estatic to be wrong, if he comes in and takes us to where we want to go. I support all of the Phin's, just do not like the pic. I was just standing up for a guy, who is going through what every rookie is going through.
 
wow!!!! feel the love!!!

what is with some of you guys? didnt like his school?

his haircut? his name? his eyes? WHAT???

why would you seemingly hope a guy busts? it seems like your
oh-so happy that he had a poor last day. why?

his success, like EVERY OTHER QB OR PLAYER on this team is
better for the miami dolphins.

are you really hung up on the name on the back of the jersey?

i dont care who it is at this point as long as they can go out and
win some games and not look absolutely FOOLISH like beck did last
year [place excuses here].

hey, i like beck. liked it when they picked him. did NOT like the way
he playes so scared and couldnt hang on to a ball when anyone
came near him. you cant coach that out. that is a HUGE worry to me,
not his arm, his reads, his footwork. all can be corrected accept a guy
who's hands go numb when he sees a defender!!

so realy, you can turn this all around and say "what will your excuses
be when henne beats out beck"?

i just dont get this i dont support henne attitude that some have. what
good does it do the team who so DESPERATELY needs a solid qb?

does it really matter whos name is on the back of the jersey to you?

really?
 
Well, I'm not crazy about Chad Henne but I remember that Beck had problems last year too, so let's not read too much into that yet and wait to see who's the best QB
 
every one struggles in rookie mini camp...Beck did too last year.

I hear ya! In another thread I just posted how he must be a bust also and let's now start the "Draft Tebow" threads....:tongue:
 
Whoever the starting QB may be is irrelevant to me and it should be to all of you as well. I just want to win some football games, and I want the best QB of the bunch to lead the way. I like Beck a lot, but if he can't win games, then I don't want him starting for us. QB has been one of our weakest links since Dan left, and I think it's about time that we filled in the void with whoever our BEST QB is...
