I want you to come and eat your crow. You had better NOT be starting threads to praise this guy...

All I can say from last night is that Henne played his *** off. He did NOT stare down his receivers, he checked down when nothing was open down field and my oh my he hit a PERFECT throw to TG over his shoulder with 3 count them 1..2..3 guys trailing him.

Sure it just one game but last night showed me that Henne, after only making his 2nd start, has potentially what it takes to be THE guy in Miami. He stayed in the pocket for most of the game except on designed roll out plays and he even took a pop when delivering that ball to Camarillo (which by the way was thrown PERFECTLY) when the Jets brought the house. That play set up the eventual winning score.

Also you have to take into account he was playing a top NFL defense and on Monday night in front of the world. No easy feat and he passed with flying colors.

So take your funky robot mechanics crap as well as your Henne stares down his wideouts and you know what you can do with it. I told you to give the guy a chance. I have a been a huge Michigan fan and have been able to watch this guy come up through college football and know he has what it takes to be at MINIMUM a serviceable qb in the league. Nobody is saying he is the next Marino or even the next pro-bowl caliber qb. However let the guy practice with the first team and this is the end result.

It may be too early to tell but personally I can tell you that what I saw last night had the recipe to be something special for this kid. The media was against him, some of his OWN fans were against him, we traded for another qb (it was needed though due to the injury but still he had to feel the pressure of an young ex starting qb) and the dude still delivered in the biggest game of his young career. Will there be bumps along the way? Yes. Will he maybe make a bad decision that loses us a game or two. Possibly. However so did Flacco and so has Matt Ryan...
 
I have said all along I didn't think he'd become a good QB, I was wrong last night. he played great. He's got a long way to go but he's off to a good start.

He does have quite a way to go but the dude made excellent stride and really fought off any notion that he is incapable of making progressions and handling game pressure. IMO, you couldn't ask for more from a guy making his 2nd start in the NFL. His poise was a big reason we won that game last night.

He has a long way to go to Canton...? We were just considering the next 10-12 years of Henne shutting up the Not Yets fans on this site...

If he's got a long way to go looks like he'll be traveling that road with The Sanchize. It remains to be seen whose journey will be rockier. In the meantime, I'm thinking of copywriting "Hennetration/Hennetrated" as in "The Jets just got......."

Sanchez also has a long way to go.

Surprisingly enough, I am pretty impressed by the poise of sanchez. I thought for sure we could get in there and rattle him pretty bad. Kudos to your o-line and for only having 23 starts or whatever in college, maybe it could be the start of your Ken O'brien/Esiason against our Marino.
 
They are all with the Ginn haters, having a study session about football. Trying to learn the game!
 
I'm a henne supporter but i'm gonna reserve judgement until the end of next season and some playoff wins. Look at Romo and Trent Edwards, they were ready to make them the second coming and now look at them. With that said Henne does look like he is headed off in the right direction.

No doubt judgment is WAAY to premature right now, however some of the things I saw last night made me think that Henne CAN be a starting qb in this league. You cannot teach pocket/situational awareness, poise or leadership and he had them both last night. He seemed to be in command of the offense and his players responded.

Let's give him the benefit of the doubt as I called for all of last week, only to be greeted by posters claiming his mechanics were flawed and irresponsibly calling for the starting of Thigpen even before Henne had a chance to prove himself.
 
I am here to munch on some crow. I really did not believe Henne was going to be a decent QB. He still hasn't proven he is the answer at QB, but he played much better last night than I thought he could. My biggest problem with him was his pocket presence. I thought he held on to the ball too long, but last night he was decisive and got rid of the ball quickly and accurately for the most part.

So I will now dine on crow. I have to admit the crow tastes much better when seasoned with the tears of Jets fans.
 
I want you to come and eat your crow.

BTW, I started a thread calling it the Funky Chicken not Robot...

In case your wondering, the crow tastes fantastic. Thank you Henne for making me look like a complete idiot.

Yummy crow is soooo good. :up:
 
I will eat my Crow, its always good to eat Crow when it benifits your team.

I didnt think Henne would be as good as he has been. He held his piose when he was getting sacked by the Bills, he kept his cool when the pocket was collapsing around him last night. I know its still early but just by watching him these past few games I can say I am jumping on the wagon....Im just happy im not jumping on the "Henne is not our Future" bandwagon.

in the end henne will be better than your guy.that big big brace on the jets qb who has knee discomfort,and being so young.that just doesnt look good.almost like a ticking time bomb.
