mondo has some fighting words for finsxfactor

 

http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolphins_in_depth/2009/08/of-the-reams-of-emails-i-get-about-the-dolphins-the-three-subjects-most-often-covered-in-those-cybernotes-are-on-the-dolphins.html

before we get to mondo dissing finsxfactor's main crush aka the original maimi ducker, mr check down, ms butterfinger, and current cammeo love crush, john beck...

mondo points out a couple overlooked facts... that although the coaching staff mentioned that henne needs to get work this year in order to be ready to take over in 2011... he is only getting 5% of the first team snaps.

a(lthough it's not in this article but others also is pointing out that the lame ducker isn't very sharp right now and a theme from last year continues ... struggles in the red zone.. )

Mando also points out that henne is unlikely to pass the lame ducker (well isn't that a surpise when the deck is stacked against) because although henne is more gifted the lame ducker has more experience and uses it to his advantage......

but this is the part where the fighting words begin....

 

Secondly, there has been much criticism of White this offseason and again early in camp because he obviously does not have the strongest arm or most impressive build in the world. The Dolphins talk of changing the bodies of players. They need to change White's body because he resembles my 12-year-old nephew, all scrawny and wiry and looking like a 220-pound safety could tackle him into next week if given the chance.

Having said all that, White, I believe he is already better than John Beck.

Let me repeat that. White is already better than John Beck.

He has better control of the huddle. He is more mobile than Beck. And, seemingly, more courageous than Beck in that he attacks the defense rather than letting the defense attack him. White is more apt to throw down the field than Beck, who became frustratingly timid with checkdown passes.

Yes, Beck has a better arm and probably always will. But what good is a strong arm if you only use it for 5-yard dump passes? Yes, Beck is built bigger and stronger than White. But what good is a bigger body, if Beck rarely put that body in motion by leaving the pocket.?

I would say there is a 60-40 chance White earns playing time in some Pat Package this year. And I'd say he will be more effective in that package than Beck ever was in his rookie year. That package will include passes but also be a lot about running the football, and if you don't believe that check out the video

yup that is some serious Beck dissage and i'm not sure anyone other than Cam, finsxfactor, or a 40 year old byu cougar playing for bmore would challenge.

don't know

i won’t argue that Cam set Beck up for failure, but then mondo has beck’s lack of leadership and failure to command the huddle or have the teams respect right on the head… my guess it’s likely that Beck, like everything else Cam did, looked promissing at first but upon closer inspection was just the wrong move and over rated and poorly done.

IMO the horrendous o-line and the drop happy recievers

along with the huge expectations in a then winless season played with his head. beck was not mentally prepared for the situation and the coaching staff shouldve known that. i am so glad we cleaned out almost the entire coaching staff of that year
plus he had 0 talent around him. in a few of the games we had a guy named samkon gado startin at rb.

In the meantime, explain what Henne can do better than Pennington other than the deep ball?

well - how about throwing outside the hash marks

and it’s reported taht he thows the out at 15 yards better than any QB since #13….

and all of that spreads the defense which opens up the running game…. which is where the REAL talent is on the team… Henne might not be the best QB on the team(right now anyways) but his strengths let the team USE it’s best assets….

so why are you so afraid of giving henne a chance? you did see the lame ducker in the playoffs and against other good D’s last year… awful?

u just dont take a guy who was second in mvp voting last year out the game

we are in a win now mode and penny atm gives us the best chance. u keep mentioning that one game against one of the best defenses in the nfl. and even that game can be blamed on the o-line more than penny

Your talking physical strength's and you're right.

But that’s less that half the game. I’d like to see Henne in all season long. AS a MATTER of FACT, I think this idea of one QB is ALL mental. Humans are smarter than rats. We can all be conditioned to follow the maze -to get the (big) cheese.

not at all - i'm talking defenses

and development…

two points – peyton manning is frequently quoted as saying he wouldn’t be where he is now nor would he have had the same success his 2nd year had he not started every game as a rookie… so with that in mind everyone talks about Henne not being as good now… my questions always becomes who would be the better option once Henne plays 5 games???

and second – i evauate an offense on how other teams play against them… and it’s pretty clear or at least is was last year that DC’s feard miami running the ball last year – on almost every 1st down last year there was 8, 9, or 10 players in the box…. what does that tell us…. they were willing to stuff the box knowing that it was unlikely that they would be beat in other areas…. so if you put in a qb that can go over teh top of the LB’s and can throw outside the hash marks… it becomes much more dangerours to pack the box.

I know this, you know this, and the coaching staff knows this, but for some reason they continue with the 500 w/l qb, which tells us that henne is either a flop and we need to be prepared to live through 3-5 more years of search and development, we need to hope pat white will be the answer, or the coaching staff while willing to take chances with the young guys at every other position is much too afraid to go 4-12 and develop a QB who is ready lead a team to greatness, knowing that 4-12 or worse can get you fired where as 9-7 gets you another year.

Defense & Development?

Nahh, Peyton’s (whom I don’t very much like) might be an exception. Who else is? What of Steve Young? Brady didn’t play his 1st year. Getting a QB’s mind right might take a coupla seasons. Maybe Henne, maybe White. But we have Pennington now.
ngton
Forcing a team forward with a QB who didn’t lead you out of the morass might exponentially drop the teams moral/attitude/confidence. Changing if you have to is a far better psychological maneuver. Greise to Morrell?
An offense can better adapt that way.

oh there is almost and endless list of great QB's

who start early…. marino, elway, montana, both mannigs, big ben, palmer takes over season two…. the reality is the good ones learn while they play and learn from their mistakes to get better, while the ones that don’t have it disappear…. (say beck)…. it boils down to leadership… if the guy can command respect in the huddle while he is young and learning then he will likely get the time needed to hone his game… (don’t forget steve young played in the usfl …. so he falls more in my camp…)

I always go back to this…. cassel stunk for the first 5-7 games and he spent years behind his best friend and the best player in the nfl…. then all of a sudden the game got easy for him…. what was the difference between the game 1 meeting and the game 2 meeting …. 7? extra games of actual game experience for him taught him to be a good qb…. sitting and watching only gets you so far.

Sitting and Watching can help...

There’s quite a few good quarterbacks that DIDN’T start right away, either.

The first one that comes to mind is that douchebag Tom Brady.

Not to mention Hasslebeck and Warner, both of whom have been to Super Bowls, Warner winning one. Philip Rivers has been one game away from the big dance two years running. Aaron Rodgers had a much better season than record indicated, throwing for 4,000 yds and 28 TDs.

Frankly, there is no one sure-fire blue print for a stud QB. However, I would rather have a young QB learn on the bench before getting thrown into the fire. For every great QB that started early, there are many more busts. For every Peyton Manning or Ben Roethlisberger, there is a Ryan Leaf or Tim Couch. Or you could also point to guys like David Carr and Joey Harrington, who came in too early, and developed bad habits that have never been fixed. You’re watching this happen with Tavaris Jackson in Minnesota right now.

by rroan28 on Aug 11, 2009 11:11 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

well we can go round and round on this one

because you are right the individual makes the difference… and maybe the staff around him … however a couple points….

brady started season 2 and he spent his first season as the 4th qb and played ST… so i’m not too sure how much his first season counts…

2nd rodgers stunk last year (just ask a GB fan… i work with a couple die hards who watched every game) rodgers got most of his stats in a couple games or when the game was gone… in the close games, the 4th, and in the games they needed to win he fell off the earth… so look for someone else.

warner – i believe started his rookie year in the NFL – yes he had the arena league but he may fall more in my camp.

leaf would have failed had he sat for his career… character issues are at fault and recent arrest further prove this…

but in listening to actual QB’s and good ones on top of that (say google P manning or J Elway) they all talk of the invaluable experience they gained by playing as rookies that helped them become the QB’s they were in spite of the fact that they struggled and had to overcome some issues.

exactly right

so it’s best to go with the guy who will give the team the best chance to win the super bowl (maybe not this year but if he plays this year maybe next) and if henne is a flub then it’s best to know now while the team is rebuild than before the team has peaked and they have to develop a new QB while the rest of the team is ready….

This line is the part that scares me about Henne
but for some reason they continue with the 500 w/l qb, which tells us that henne is either a flop and we need to be prepared to live through 3-5 more years of search and development

If Henne was showing anything in practice, OTA’s, etc. I believe this coaching staff would do everything in their power to make him the starter this year. Not only does Pennington have a lame duck for an arm, he also has a lame duck contract. If Henne were performing better there is no reason not to start him in ’09. But he is not. And that is the scary thing.

Henne should know the playbook. He should know the checks. He should know the audibles. But he can’t make the plays. Kellen Clemens (the Great Kellen Clemens) beat out Pennington with the Jets in ‘07. If Henne isn’t as good as Kellen Clemens, then the fins are still a long way away from finding a franchise QB.

by ct1361 on Aug 11, 2009 10:04 AM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

exactly

but a couple of points… henne started camp very slow last year and came on as the camp progressed.

two – he’s playing with the seconds (only %5 with the firsts is BS) and he is likely suffering through turner and hartline learning the offense… you rarely hear him making throws to ginn/bess/cam…. hence it’s hard to entirely blame the QB….

finally i don’t think the staff has the balls to put henne in… the safe play is start the lame ducker and if he struggles they can justify the change …. but the staff won’t risk their rep (a la wanny) of putting in the new guy and have him struggle and then go back to the lame ducker and have to say you all vets were right … he wasn’t ready…. which is why bringing in the lame ducker was a big mistake in the first place because now you are turning over the team to a guy who hasn’t done a thing 3 years into a rebuilding process and you have to go at least a year with him on the learning curve before you know what you have.

Couple of counter points

1) IMO, Henne started slow in camp last year because he was a rookie and was getting used to the speed of the nfl. He shouldn’t have that excuse this year. He did get better as the camp went along, but that is expected for rookie QB’s

2) Playing so much with the 2nd offense is another indication that he is failing to convince the coaching staff that he can play at this level.

3) Maybe i am being an idiot, but I refuse to believe that this coaching staff can’t see the problems with playing Pennington. I am not the smartest football mind on the planet, but I do know the game. There is no way that the coaching staff could watch what was happening on the field in last years playoff game and realize that a Pennington lead offense could beat the Ravens. I was at the game and watched what was happening. Pennington physically could not take advantage of what the raven defense was giving to the offense.

And all the people who defend Pennington on this site and other places will say “the offense was ineffective”, “it’s a team game”, “you can’t blame one player”, etc. But only one player on offense throws the football, and that is the QB. And when the defense is giving the WR’s room to run 10 yd outs, 17 yd sideline comebacks, 25 yd fades along the sideline, and the QB can’t get them the ball when they are open, whose fault is that?

it's nice to have a discourse around here....

classy as always CT….

but I refuse to believe that this coaching staff can’t see the problems with playing Pennington. I am not the smartest football mind on the planet, but I do know the game

oh, i’m not saying they don’t …. i believe when they annouced that henne would take over in 2010, they mentioned (through and anonymous source) that ginn likely won’t develop into a quality receiver until henne takes over…

what i’m saying is that they are trapped… they can’t turn the team over to henne and have the team struggle without turning henne into clemens… i’m pretty sure they are aware that they are going to struggle especially early (you don’t change 5 guys in the secondary and expect to improve right away) it’s just that they need to let pennington fail before they can make the change and they didn’t have the balls to turn the team over to henne in 2009, without losing the veterans on the team… you know all that BS we heard with wanny and then again with cleo…. the vet gives us the best chance to WIN this game…. not we need to start the guy who likely will give us the best chance to win in 5 games.

ehh

Doesn’t matter whose fault it was, the bottom line was that he couldn’t get it done. There’s a million stories about QB’s like him that couldn’t cut it, and it’s never solely on their shoulders, but at some point, can we all just agree that Beck was just not very good, and no amount of coaching or blocking was gonna make him the All-Pro people wanted him to be?

2 things

1 – The way I read DIB’s comment was that he was happy that Beck was gone from the Phins, not that he parties ’cause someone loses their job.

2 – I’ll take your word on Beck’s abilities, (I have no opinion either way), all I am saying is that he IS gone & he ISN’T coming back, so why get your titties in a wringer over it?

We, (as in all the posters here at Phinsider), agree to disagree many times here. That is no reason to get all worked up.

I, (& I think most if not all others here) love you X, ’cause you do have good things to say.

Why can’t we stop this hating on each other over someone who isn’t on the team anymore? We argue enough about guys that ARE still here!

first off the guy is from buffalo – so don’t bother trying to explain morality and civility to him…. buffalo is a city short a C and a L inorder for them to have Class…. they all are and if you expect otherwise well ….

and those are the guys who a feel for when they don’t make the team, cause beck will be ok…. bryan will be back at arby’s if he doesn’t hang on.

so i guess what i’m saying is, you’re right that it is tasteless to “throw a party” when someone has misfortune but its a little misplaced when the misforturne really isn’t that lifealtering (a la beck)

IMO the Beck debate is a little ridiculous,

because how in the world can anyone come to a conclusion after 5 games on a awful lame duck 1-15 team in his rookie season, I can give you a list of HOFers that were worse in their rookie seasons, and they played on better teams.

Bottom line, there is just not enough evidence to come to any conclusion regarding Beck, it’s just guessing at this point.

Beck's real problem

was how he handled the pass rush. The guy simply looked scared under center. My mind still goes back to those two games against Buffalo and Jets where he made back to back fumbles and ints. They knew that an aggressive pass rush would rattle him and they were right. He does have a good arm, and is a very hard worker but the intangibles (leadership, etc…) just weren’t there.

It hurts losing a high 2nd round pick, but it certainly wasn’t the first time we did it (Feeley, Culpepper)..

Its just so funny how most, if not all, of you guys have quickly just bam changed your mind. There was a resounding majority last off-season who felt that John Beck was indeed their franchise qb.

http://www.thephinsider.com/2008/6/21/556327/i-have-been-wondering-this#6931797

First lets settle on one thing. He does have the tools to succeed. Some people will right away claim “he has no arm strength! He cant throw it down the field at all. He’s just noodle arm part 2.”
FALSE
Look at this throw..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dHBy7uIV_iE
Noodle arm no more. Or quack or any of that bull. Because It’s simply just crap

Then theres the whole ability to play the game and what not.
In his college career he had a 69.3 completion percentage, an average qb rating of 116.3, and a td-int of 32:8.
He consistently showed accuracy, anticipation, and a drive to win. He excelled on a team with absolutely no surrounding talent where his “best” reciever went undrafted.

If you want to bring up other things such as Handsize and what not. Go here. Nicky outlined a few false rumors.
http://www.thephinsider.com/2008/6/30/561917/john-beck-myths
 

Here’s a good summary on his draft day evaluation, by our good friend Jaws.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MflFK7Q0o9E

Now first season into the NFl. You can bring up how he fumbled or how he seemed to not be up to speed with the nfl and kept relying on “dumpoffs”. Do you remember that season? Relatively no production in his recievers, piss-pour running game, and an O-line that seemed to have more holes than a sponge. Like my goodness he would take the snap and a defender would already have his hands wrapped around the guy.
Heres his first game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXLIVDOawcI
Notice how when given some time he made accurate throws (although many were drops by useless recievers). Notice how well he moved in the pocket and avoided defenders and there were many just coming at him as if the o-line simply said “F-it”

Overall this season was marred with lack of protection, and absolutely no support by coach or players (because of little talent). Plus he was a rookie! A rookie! What do you expect? Him to all of a sudden become Dan Marino? It takes a little time and experience for qb’s to develop.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRpAnUdgWqA

Then in his second season he was poised to start. And he was going to be our starter intill we signed the progress-stopper. He had a good enough showing at camp that made coaches have him atop the depth chart when the first pre-season game came around. Why he was not given the starting job then and why the trifecta signed cp can be chalked up to the team message. If this was supposed to be a new beginning and a revitalized team then how could the coaches use beck as their leader (from a previous regime) even if he was the best player. They cleared out players from the 2007 season as if they were the plague. This stubborness caused us to have beck downgraded and eventually released. This bias against john beck in his 2nd season by this current regime is why I question some of their decisions. He was a franchise qb and they just let him walk away.
