Around SBN: What If This Is It For The Celtics? End Of An Era Looming

Report: Tonight's game could be beginning of the end for Pennington

Take this for what it's worth, but the National Football Post's Michael Lombardi - a former NFL exec who is one of the more accurate "rumor-mongers" in the media - is reporting that tonight's game could potentially be a very big one for Dolphins QB Chad PenningtonLombardi writes that a bad game from Pennington could jump-start the Chad Henne era in Miami rather quickly:

I hear the Monday night game is a big one for Chad Pennington, who has to show the Dolphins he can do more than just manage the game. He must prove he can make big plays in the passing game. Everyone (including me) gave Carolina Panthers quarterback Jake Delhomme grief for his last two games, but what about Pennington? Six turnovers (five interceptions, one fumble), two touchdown passes, and he was sacked seven times. Pennington needs to show up or the Chad Henne era might be starting in Miami sooner than later.

Just another intriguing storyline as we head into the Dolphins' home opener tonight against the Colts.  With that said, though, I hope somebody gets this little nugget into Pennington's hands.  A little extra motivation for CP can't hurt.

But while many will want to focus on Pennington tonight, I'm putting the emphasis on Miami's offensive line.  They have got to open up some running lanes and keep Pennington upright.  After all, if the Dolphins can't establish the run and can't protect the quarterback, then it will not even matter who is under center.

That's just what we need to do...

treat Penington like The Jets did. Where did that get them? They had to get a QB in the first round several years later.

give sanchez more then 2 games

before we crown him a franchise qb. He has had two ok games. I think both defenses they faced are weak. So lets see what happens when they play a good defensive team like the phins. Pennington should be our horse this “season” if he cant move the team forward well then next season we can move on to the youngster.

LOL these comparisons need to stop.

 Big Ben had Ward, awesome defense and a good run game.

Flacco had an awesome run game, a good o-line and the best defense in the league.

Ryan had a good o-line, Roddy White, the best run offense in the game.

Eli had a good run game, good defense and damn good o-line.

In Sanchez’s 2 games he has had a good o-line, one of the best defenses and a bunch of options at WR and a good run game.

Henne would have- no go to wide receiver, a shaky o-line with 2 new starters, an inconsistent run game and a defense that can only stop the run.

Logical comparisons would be very much apperciated but to act like Henne is in the same situation as any of those other guys is extremely laughable.

It is?

So our O-line wasn’t greatly improved last year?
Our defense didn’t keep us in games, adn wasn’t very good last year?

Who was Roddy WHite when Vick was the QB in Atlanta?

Sanchez has a bunch of options at WR huh? Any pro-bowlers in that group. I can say Penne has “abunch of options too”

So I’m posting tellin you our O-lin was greatly improved last year.
I’m also posting that we have a damn good defense.
And I’ll put up Ronnie and Ricky against any team combo of anytime you wanna throw at me.

I made the comparison to Delhomme in my arguement in the last story

I sorry. I’m seeing too many young, especially rookie QBs coming in and doing excately what Pennington is doing now. Not only that, they are winning and getting better. Meanwhile down in South Beach, some/most people are saying, Pennington is everything, we can’t win without him, what will we do?!?

I’ll tell ya what will do, we’ll put our young QB in the game and let him manage and get xp too. We’ll see what we got and see if he developes like a Flacco, Big Ben, Ryan, (hell look at Sanchez).

Flacco and Ryan were rookies last year and took thier teams as far, futher as rookies as our, excuse me, some peoples savior, Pennington did last year. Now anyone see how many points Flacco and Ryan are starting to put up now?

Its not like out offnse has been this big juggernaut anyways. Trick plays, wierd formations, and the WC is hardly a scary offense. I’m not saying Henne will be that good. I’m just saying, lets continue with our rebuilding process and see what we got at ALL postions, not just some.

that's not really fair.

i think CP is supposed to manage games, not win them, and he is teaching Henne how to do the same – be a good game manager, not a strong armed “put the team on his back” kind of QB. No team needs that kind of guy, with the big ego and wants it to be all about him.

As long as we can squeak by in games by a point or two in the last 2 mins, CP should remain QB. And we should get working on that contract extension before someone grabs him in the offseason.

Sorry left your wrong

Can’t win a cahmpionship with “just” a game manager. At some point were gonna have to quick witht the trick plays and ask a QB to win games for us.

As long as we can squeak by in games by a point or two in the last 2 mins, CP should remain QB

How many times are we gonna ask our defense wo win games for us until our offnse can muster enough points? Didn’t you see that enough during the Whanny/Fielder years? I know I had enough.

And we should get working on that contract extension before someone grabs him in the offseason.

pennington cant win games from behind

last year the dolphins played the easiset schedulein the NFL they actually didnt play from behind by 10pts or more much.This year they play the toughest schedule in the NFL they will be behind a lot more.Pennington is a winner but playing for the Dolphins when they get behind by 10pts or more since he is limited because of shoulder issues in the downfield pass the defenses and coaches know this and it makes it very difficult to improbable that he can play from behind and win.Now it is a different story if ahead or in a close game as he plays a conservative game which is relatively mistake free and is great with the lead.I think the Dolphins need to bring in the reliever quick when pennington is having a bad day or gets too far behind.The whole NFL seems reluctant to bring in the reliever and in this case Henne is supposedly the heir apparent to the job well then bring him in lets see if he can bring the Dolphins back from behind.

Atleast Henne wont spike the ball and completely give up on a play 2 seconds into it. he's not that type of "leader"

He can make all the throws – pennington cant
He opens up this offensive because he can actually get the ball down the field

  • thus no more of that stacking the box crap
  • thus helping the Run game
    And its a legitmate step into the future, no more of this panzy ass progress stopping nonsense.

Flacco and Ryan, 2 rookies took their teams to the playoffs. I see Sanchez and the Jets sitting at 2-0 with a credible road win at Houston and w win over the Pats. We have a good defense and a solid running game just like those rookie qbs. Only difference? Our QB has sit a year to watch, which benefits us.

o-line

that’s the biggest reason. Sanchez, Flacco, Ryan – all of them were protected well. Until this o-line is playing as good as it should be, there’s no reason to subject Henne to a potential beating. He won’t be able to make reads as fast as CP.

Says who?

Last week I saw a very indecisive Chad Pennington, One that held the ball too long and isn’t able to extend to play at all.
I’m not saying henne is as quick in the pocket as Dan Marino or John beck, but he can do that.

Plus defenses will have to respect the passing game. Opens up the run game.

I’ve looked at CP10 as a gap filler since he arrived in South Beach, and while I am extremely appreciative of what he did for us — both on the field and with educating Chad Henne — last season, I don’t see the point of a Penne/Henne argument because Henne is already being groomed as his successor. Whether it takes one season (like the Kitna/Carson Palmer situation) or two, Chad’s our choice as a franchise qb. Again, I really like Chad Pennington, but he’s not taking us to the promised land.

All of that said, I am going to be watching our O line and #21 tonight. I still believe our offensive line needs a bit more time to develop the kind of chemistry that will make them the best line in the league (and I firmly believe they will soon become just that. Call me crazy, but I think they are built to dominate once they fully mature as players). Jake Long can make HUGE strides as a premier blindside tackle by bullying around Indy’s DEs tonight.

I am also intrigued to see how Vontae Davis looks tonight. I don’t expect him to be anywhere near perfect — far from it, actually. He’ll probably make a few stupid plays (as any rookie would on their first MNF appearance), but I would love to see him come out and be aggressive with Indy’s wide receivers. I started hoping for Davis to fall to us during the 2008 college football season, and now that we have him, I am hoping he’ll live up to my expectations and add some real teeth to our secondary.

Man, I am jacked up for this game. I am so glad the Dolphins are back on MNF.

Let's look at the silver lining admist our "QB Dilemma"

At least we didn’t take Brady Quinn! Cleveland traded away their ass for him and is now already speculating whether they should look for a qb in the draft next year. Can’t say Ted Ginn Jr. was my first choice at that #9 spot, but I’d say we dodged a bullet there (which is the ONLY compliment I would ever give to the Cam Cam-moron/Randy “I will trade away our future for a box of Krispy Kreme doughnuts” Mueller draft alliance).

I'm still a little upset we got ginn instead of quinn

not because ginn is bad, but because of our qb situation. Right nwo we would have definetly had our franchise guy with 1-2 years under his belt….would’ve been epic…

I'm not going to debate this - especially on a game day

But the bottom line is that it’s much easier right now to be in favor of Henne than it is against. People who are in favor of Henne have much more ammunition to use in their arguments than those in favor of holding off on Henne right now.

But that doesn’t mean it’s right. Let’s just give CP time. If he continues to struggle, we’ll see Henne soon enough and all the “pro-Henne” people can rejoice. But the debate itself is tired and old.

I've always said Chad Pennington is feast or famine QB

one year we feast, next its famine.

We are in a famine year. Lets hope the football gods have decided to break the cycle.

Yup thats why the Jets traded for Farve and released him instead of Clemons

Because he is soooooooooooooo great

Everybody knows by now that 99% of Jets fans regret that move.

With that running game and defense there is no chance in hell he doesn’t take them to the playoffs.

Let's get the f!&@%#$ running game going!

Great posts Matty, I gotta say i agree with most of what you write. I don’t think we should give up on Chad P just yet, he’s too smart to sit on the bench and Henne ain’t quite ready. Let’s get the damn O-line straight, we have TWO great running backs that just need room to break loose! We just need the threat of a passing game to open things up for RB and RW. GO F’IN FINS!!!

i was already thinking this

if the o line protects him and open holes for R and R, and the D fense limits the points our opponents score and we lose three more games because CP10 dumps it down every time. IF ALL THIS HAPPENS THEN PULL THE PLUG AND PUT CHAD HENNE

Well, considering we went 0-2 last year and won our division, I think we can win with CP10.

I have faith in our coaching staff. When it is time to pull the plug, they will pull the plug.

A int and a fumble lost

he did contribute to the loss. Was he the sole reason no. Just like he is not the sole reason for us winning 11 games and going to the playoffs.

yeah but why isn't every calling for Longs, Careys, Browns, Ginns, Fasanos head?

They contributed to the loss just as much if not more than CP10.

And CP10 was the biggest reason the team won 11 games last season. Him getting runner up MVP says alot.

No he wasn’t. Coaching, better o-line play, better defense play. running game. ALl those were bigger reasons than Pennington.

yeah but why isn’t every calling for Longs, Careys, Browns, Ginns, Fasanos head?

Because they are our future. Pennington isn’t. Isn’t like we got people on the bench waiting to take over their spots.

CP is the man!

I don’t know where all you Chad Pennington haters came from, but he is the best QB on the team period. In week one the O-line did not do there job and it showed(not CP’s fault). This week they showed up, look at the stats. 45 minutes the offense had the ball, the run game went for 230 plus yards, with the exception of his final two passes CP was spot on with his passes. Five or six passes hit receivers hands and they failed to come down with first downs or more importantly touchdowns(yeah, I’m talking about you TED GINN). Missed field goals, dropped passes, and the secondary not respecting Manning is why we lost, not CP’s fault. I would like to see the next Dan Marion just like everyone else but we are a running team. Four half backs and a fullback, its not rocket science.

have to agree

it looked to me that ronnie was the 2nd best QB to take the field yesterday.

Chad Pennington - The Lame Ducker aka the progress stopper.

So do you think the Jets intentionally did it to set the organization back 3 years or was it just an unintended side effect of their move.

AS I SAID LAST YEAR I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST CP…GOOD HEADY QB WHO DOESNT MAKE MANY MISSTAKES…BUT OBVIOUSLY DOESNT HAVE THE MOXIE TO LEAD US TO A SB WIN..AS PROVED WITH HIS YRS IN NY…WE NEED TO PLAY HENNE TO FIND OUT IF HES OUR FUTURE AND LET HIM TAKE HIS LUMPS…ALL WE DID LAST YEAR WAS SCREW OURSELVES OF A BETTER DRAFT PICK..AS THIS TEAM ISNT SB CALIBER YET ANYWAY..STILL NEED CPL STUDS ON DEFENSE AND A TRUE DOMINANT RCVR…ATL IS PLAYING THEIRS AND SO IS BALTIMORE…ITS TIME FOR TONY TO MAKE THE TRANSITION THIS SEASON RATHER THAN NEXT

So how does everyone feel, now that it's Tuesday..?

I was glued to the tv from pre-game till the game clock tick triple zero….

So this is the first moment I’ve come back to see what has been going on on the blog… very interesting to find this post. Read most of the comments… feel sad for our loss.

I really do wonder what is going to be decided in the next two days over the team’s QB situation. One thing that does stick with me from last night’s loss….. the two-minute drill at the end was non-existent. Seemed to me it was all on CP10 for that failure.

First time to the site

I feel CP had a great game last night. The coaches need to have faith in him, and let him try to win the game and not play soft. If that was Peyton, he never would’ve settled to run on 3rd & 6. If anybodies to blame it’s the receivers, preferably Ted Ginn(I’m soft),jr.

Welcome!

Good points… you’re right in that here was no faith in the passing game… don’t know where the weaker area was tho….
