We could be seeing a Michigan QB playing on Sunday in Foxboro not named Brady

Chad Henne and his 81 yard TD drive last week has impressed coaches a lot

Word around the locker room from reports on Sirius says the dolphins players like the rookie how he carries himself like a vet and they don't think Henne looks or plays anything like a first year player.

Kind of Ironic that we had a Matt vs. Matt debate on the Patriots

Looks like a Chad vs. Chad debate on the Phins

So don't be surprised if Pennington is getting beat down by the Pats defense that we don't see a QB from Michigan on the field sunday who is not named Brady - Henne may very well finish this game,I would'nt bet against it.

Okay...

Ten Char

Well that's a relief...at first I thought you meant Matt Gutierrez.

He won't finish the game unless we're up by 3-4 scores as the Cardinals were because our offense is beating down their defense....and they can't run the ball either so he'd be dead meat. Rickie and Ronnie have 100 yards BETWEEN THEM in 2 games. Henne can't help them this season, he can only get hurt. That's what they're paying Noodle to help them avoid. He really should have talked to the Vikes.

I watched the kid play for 4 years at Michigan.

He's awful.

I really hope they bench Pennington for Henne.

Henne's better than awful, but that's a matter of debate I guess.

What's not a matter for debate is that I suspect the Falcons coaches and players liked Matt Ryan after one outing and bla bla bla "carries himself like a vet" bla bla bla, but then after week 2, he looks a lot more like a rookie.

An 81 yard drive for a TD is impressive, but the game was over, and it was the Cardinals, improving or not.

And suddenly the fans want to throw him in up here?? Well, be my guest. Unfortunately, Sparano's not that daft and we'll see Noodle Arm instead, but fortunately without the supporting cast of Cotchery, Coles and Chrebet that have always been a thorn in our side - despite all the wins.

Parcells is not going to allow them to rush Henne's development to the point that it ruins him. They have a talented but young O-line, so once they start to gel I could see it, but not now except for mop-up minutes.

He's much more likely to play when we face them the second time around.
