SPERRY definately needs to be the guy now.
it is obvious he has some real talent and appears to be
an all around football PLAYER!
last night, he wasnt in the pass game plans [wierd] but he
sure was making some killer blocks in the run game. that
shows he is tough and not just a pass happy wanna be wr.
i think what we saw last night was the staff telling haynos that
he still has his job and its his to lose. the staff gives vets the
nod over rookies untill they COMPLETELY fail or the talent behind
them is just to good to ignore.
haynos didnt make much of a case for himself and didnt reward the
staff after they kept him in after sperrys eye popping performance
the week before.
i am not a haynos fan, but i do know why he has been in there because
of the injuries at the position. but this team has a shot at the wildcard
now that we are getting back to normal football. ronnie just waasnt getting
it done with conventional run formations and it was becoming a liability.
with that in mind, having the shot at a wildcard, they cant let the TE position
start losing games for us. agaisnt the bills, the dolphins MUST get sperry
more involved in the passing game. and if he is the playmaker over haynos at
the end of the game, then GO WITH THE HOT HAND!! they cant afford at this
point to stick to a guy just because he is a veteran if he costing us plays and
even games.
ricky and ike are going to be a MASSIVE load and both dont need the wildcat
to get there yards. now add in a young productive TE like sperry and what appears
to be a star in the making with garner plus the young talent on defense and the
youth movement is steam rolling. and lets not forget our young qb who is looking
better every week and is tough and competative and a born leader.
the more young guys who can get reps on the field this year will pay DIVIDENDS
towards next years success. we get a BONAFIDE playmaking wr or two in here
and a lb and NT, next year looks pretty damn exciting with all that in place.
we wont have to go out and get the wr's and fix the pass game just to have a
first year qb trying to run it all. this was the PERFECT time to have henne step in.
lets get whatever talent is showing promise on the field and get them in there and
not let old traditions get in the way. get sperry rolling and get henne that target
over the middle and the reliable saftey valve he needs.
