Yep this will be very interesting... Henne needs to get signed quick and let the competition begin.
!) beck
2) McCown
No particular reason... maybe Beck has put in more work... hene isn't a starter this year, mccown will be gone next year too

I think it'll be Beck, McCown then Henne.
Beck SHOULD play much better with another year as a pro, a much better O-line to protect him & two healthy RBs, BUT ...
If he continues to play like the ball is greased he will lose his oportunity....

DA M.I.A IS WHERE I STAY
no offense,but I wouldnt count on anyoen having the starting job now.Parcells will probably judge who gets it after training camp,hell,it may take the pre-season to find out...
yea right now I think its:
Beck
McCown
Henne
UDFA
Beck
McCown

Beck wont start. My guess is McCown starts till Henne is ready in 1-3 years. Id say they are HOPING that Beck can bulk up and be a decent backup for now should McCown get injured. If he dosent, they will look for a veteran to fill that role. Henne has an outside shot of stepping in and starting. If he dosent start Id say he will be the 3rd stringer till he is ready, which is most likely.
Someone please tell me WHY Beck would start???? Based on what??? His stellar play last year??? Why would they start Beck if they hand picked Henne to be the future in 1-3 years????
The only way Beck starts is if he blows everyone away in camp and preseason. McCown was brought in to start and I dont know why that is difficult to understand.

I think it could be anyone's job at this point......Parcells is going to let them battle it out at training camp.I have a hunch that McCown's days may be numbered if Henne and Beck turn on the juice.

The hope in me says:
Beck
McCown
Henne (if Parcells follows his own council of NOT playing rookies at all)
The realist in me actually believes the same thing. Here's why:
1. Beck has been working his TAIL off this offseason. QB Coach Lee has been impressed, and both Sporano and Lee impressed with his work ethic. Beck has stated that the work to "go over the top" on his throws is actually more comfortable (if you didn't listen to the interview, you'd know about the injury, taping down, and shots after a seperated shoulder his Soph year) going backto that throwing motion. I think the greased ball was more akin to butterflies and a lack of confidence in his line (understandable, in his situation, to me) and I believe lack of preparation overall. To the last point, Beck has also commented that he's gotten more instruction coaching these past months than the entire last season.
2. McCown, its very possible, has never really gotten a solid shot in the NFL. Hence, the forever backup he's been for 6 years. I don't know a lot about him, but he sounds determined. I don't think the FO really wants to look to him as "the answer." I think, that between Beck and Henne, they're hoping they've got their guy. Of course, this will take a couple years IN THE LEAST to figure out, unless Beck wins it and totally blows (which I seriously doubt, as he won't let what happened last year occur ever again).
3. Henne is a great value pick, and will provide great competition. Beck has an upper hand here, though, because he's been working out with the receivers, and his timing will be that much more crisp. They'll be more in sync with each other. I can see Henne competing, but not with much chance of gaining the starting job THIS YEAR. I think the real competition will be next year. Henne will take this year to aclimate (depending on how long he waits to sign on).
All in all, I believe Beck will start this year, post competition, and in the coming years it will be between Beck and Henne. I can't, for the life of me, after a 6 year career, imagine that McCown suddenly becomes "the answer" for Miami. That's why in other posts I've said that even if the competition between McCown and Beck was close, they'd go with Beck. People have seen what McCown can do for 6 years. Beck was thrown to the wolves, and they need to really see for themselves what he can do. If he burns, McCown will be able to step in. It really won't be expected of Henne this year. He'll be really green and wide-eyed. And they'll want to take their time with him.
We'll see what the REAL future brings, but this is what I see, and the future is open.

because as much as you dont want to admit it the majority of Becks problems last year were related to team issues and coaching. I hate to break the news to you but Beck is a better QB than Henne. He was in college and will be in the pros. This year will be between Beck and McCown with Henne no chance of starting. He has some flaws that need to be worked out before hand and BP doesnt typically start rookie QB's. If Henne is his guy then expect him to sit an learn. He wont risk throwing Henne in his first year, just so you can declare he is a bust after he struggles.
Face the facts that Beck will probably be the man this year, so start supporting the players on the team and stop acting like an A**.

Beck will be starting he will beat all other QB's on the roster in training camp (those of you who have passed judgment on Beck after 4 games on a horrible team two of those games in horrible field conditions are being quite absurd). McCown will see time if Beck is injured or struggles Henne in my opinion will not see the field this year other than preseason I feel he is a career backup at best unless the coaches can fix his accuracy problems.
