The latest on Chad Pennington: Done for the season
According to ESPN's Chris Mortensen, who likely has good sources within the Dolphins organization thanks to his relationship with former ESPN employee Bill Parcells, Chad Pennington has a torn capsule in his throwing shoulder and will miss the remainder of the season. But Pennington will seek a second opinion from the famed Dr. James Andrews - the same guy who performed Chad's two other shoulder surgeries - before making any final decisions.
We probably should have expected this news after watching Pennington's body language on the sidelines yesterday. He's a guy who has suffered through two serious shoulder injuries on his throwing shoulder to begin with. So he knows what a "serious issue" would feel like as it happens.
Pennington initially suffered a dislocated right shoulder on the field - which the training staff immediately had to pop back into place. The question, though, was if the dislocation caused any further ligament damage - such as a torn rotator cuff - as the joint was coming out of place or being moved back into place. One of our community members who has gone through this and explains it well in this fanpost.
Pennington had an MRI done this morning and the results clearly aren't good.
I had a bad feeling about this all day - especially after hearing WFAN's Mike Francesa give us a little insight. Why is anything a New York sports radio host says relevant to the Dolphins? For those that don't know, Francesa is a big fan of Chad Pennington as a person and is hoping for the best. He's also a long-time personal friend of Bill Parcells. And though Francesa didn't have any concrete news at the time, he did say that the feeling he has gotten is that Pennington's injury is a serious one. He said there isn't too much optimism within the organization for Pennington at this point. As it turns out, Francesa looks to be dead on accurate here.
At his morning press conference, head coach Tony Sparano did not rule out the possibility of Chad Pennington playing in week four. He simply told the media, "I won’t rule anything out. We’ll wait and see."
But this news basically means it's now time for Chad Henne to go out and make us all believers.

A big yes
I am not a Henne fan, but prolonging this is pointless. The Dolphins know two things:
1 They need to find out if Henne can play
2 They know they wouldn’t have gone to the SB this year so CP playing all year is forestalling the inevitable.
Take it for what it’s worth, but Chris Mortensen is reporting that Pennington has a “torn capsule” in his throwing shoulder and is out for the year – but he’s seeking a second opinion.

No
Pat White. I have no confidence in Henne whatsoever. None. He proved all I needed to see in the preseason last year and this year. Oh and not to mention the game yesterday. Henne will soon prove enough that he will not be the future and we will have to look for something else. If he doesn’t prove that then I’ll be enthused and happy to have him for the future.

But I don’t want White to be a John Beck… he needs snaps with the first team in practice before he can take over on game day. Give Henne a few games to try and develop a rhythm with Ginn.

ehh I dunno
from what I’ve seen out of White and Vick so far this year is that they stall drives. The team uses them with the idea that they can add another playmaking dimension to the offense, but the reality is that it just takes everybody out of rhythm, and more often than not results in a negative play. I’d rather Ronnie run the Wildcat, and Henne run the base offense. Use PW as a receiver. Stick him in the slot, throw him some screens where he can use his best attribute (run ability), and occasionally throw a double pass with him. He can be a great weapon, but I don’t think it’ll be from under center.

I seem to be asking this allot this season.. Have you actually been WATCHING the games? White is NO WAY NEAR ready to play and has not even shown a glimps of anything outside of being able to run the ball so far. I just people who praise guys who are unproven.
5 months ago it was all about V Davis….. and where is he now? Playing some, however still has not made ANY impact at all.

I seriously cannot believe some of you want Pat White
Look i’ll say it. He SUCKS! I hope one day he develops the skills to play QB but no way in hell do I want him playing QB for us now. I assume we’ll look to acquire a veteran backup now

From a jets fan. i told em that they didn’t know what they were talkin about. who’s eatin some crow now?
As for Henne, even though he threw the ball beyond the line of scrimmage, look at what that play would give the team. Someone compared him to Big Ben Rothelesberger(sp?) I saw a glimpse of that minus the mistake of throwing two yards(one step) too late. I’m not saying that the team is gonna turn things around, instantly with the scedule they face after buffalo, but there is alot of hope for this sunday to win. Both Donte Whittner and Leodis McKelvin will be out most likely, McKelvin for sure. That should free up our recievers to some bigger plays this week than they’ve had all season. The onus is going to be on our offensive line to protect Henne against Schobel and The rest of buffalo’s pass rush

They’ll let Henne go a full offseason around him, and a full season after before even considering acquiring another QB
sorry bud, as much as i like henne
i see the same thing happen with him like all the rest of the quarterbacks who have don the phins jersey. Unitil we use a high first round pick on a quarterback we will never compete!!
They will sick with henne for a least two years and see were we go.
Its his show now. Good luck to him.

What a way to end..
Thanks for everything Chad! Last year was incredible and will never be forgotten. This was inevidable (the change to Henne), it’s just too bad it had to happen like this. It’s likely that yesterday was his last game of the year…and with this team.. and possibly his career. This hurts but it’s probably much worse for him..
At 0-3 it’s hard to think that Henne can make a serious run for the post season but if we don’t have hope and faith, then what do we have? At least get some quality learning and progressing experience and hopefully the team can rally around him and put together something good. As long as we can stay somewhat competitive and not see the team pack it in, then I’m okay with this… let’s just stay positive.

He is still talented.
Those are the only two player who can make this team better and will come cheap, meaning not having top give up high draft picks.

I mean, is a team going to follow a QB that had the police called to search for him because the a friend and counselor thought he might consider offing himself?
What part of that screams Leadership?
I agree.
I know he served his time but his crime turns my stomach. I dont care what he or anyone else says. What kind of a person could do what he did?

I heard a GM once say that a team should draft a QB every year even if its in the last round.
Eventually you will hit on one and if you already have one then you have another if and when he goes down. There may be something to that theroy.

not to kick anyone while there down but…
we shoulda known this was gonna happen. might have gotten a high draft pick for him predraft time, now its 2 late.
as a dolphins fan, im hoping this is a blessing in disguise and that such a loss will turn into an oppurtunity for chad henne. never really liked henne but hopefully he will surprise us all and be the future of our team.

Well Said.
This was a predictable occurance. Pennington has never played two complete seasons back to back and there was no reason to think that he was going to this year. If Pennington was going to get hurt, in a way, I am glad that it happened early in the season. Now the phins have 13 games to try and find their next franchise QB. Hopefully that guy, either Henne or White, is on the roster. If not, there is always the 2010 draft (Stafford, Tebow, McCoy, Clausen). There will be plenty of good ones available.
stafford again in the draft???????
u mean bradford i think, personally out of those 2010 qbs i think only 1-2 will be good nfl qbs. so the draft class IMO for franchise qbs isnt looking to good unless we get a top 5 pick which is a sad thought but is possible

No way we draft a QB next year....
No matter what Henne does this year, the Front Office is going to want a full offseason program to develop the playbook around his abilities that they discover this year.
seeing what they did with mr john beck
i dont see them givin henne that chance if they didnt give beck it. we might still let henne start next year but not without draftin a qb in the 1st two rounds

Agreed!
If Henne proves he can’t play in the league, a very real possibility, I don’t think this FO would hesitate to draft another QB. Especially if the phins get another high draft pick, potentially top 10.
You keep drafting the position until you get it right. QB is the most important position on the field and the surest way to be a consistent winner is having a franchise QB.
and thanks to the horrendous 07 year we have a franchise LT
which is ONE of the keys to a QBs success.
lets juz hope it doesnt take another lousy season for us to get another franchise player

Henne
well Henne has 13 games to prove that he can play, if he does than we win 6-8 games, and get a pick thats around 12-16, if he stinks up the place and only get 3 wins and he looks lost and awful we have a top 5 pick and can finally get a QB of the future

Time for Ginn to man up.
He needs to stop avoiding contact, and go for some of these balls that are “just out of his reach”, but that ANY other reciever in the NFL would get a handle on. Unless he learns to take a hit, he won’t be fielding punts or kickoffs.

Never want to wish injury on anyone, but I’m glad that it happened. We arent talented enough to win a SB so lets see what we got w/ Henne. Alot of other QBs are doing better w/ less experience. Theres no excuses for him now.
excuse: nfl's toughest schedule, inconsistent o-line, zero defense, no off season with 1st team

What I'm worried about
i’m worried that if Henne doesn’t do good, our coaching staff will give him another shot next year without trying to either draft and QB or make moves for one…. i got to admit that i’m worried about our coaching staff this year..
I know right.
cause of all the changes from the coaching staff from last year that happend we don’t know what’s going on……
oh wait…..
It is time for Ginn...
theres no doubt about it. But Henne’s eyes were glued to Bess everytime he had the ball. Some might say crazy glued, some like ooo, i dont know, Eric Weddle??? But in all seriousness, I think he’s really gonna rely hard on Bess, he looked like he was favoring him big time.
No Thanks to Jake Long
For the record, that was Jake Long again getting mowed over.
Draft
Is it already bad to be thinking about the draft next year? I feel like that is the next time to get excited. Not that I want to wash this season, but or Defense is playing less than spectacular, Ginn was the worst number 1 draft pick ever, and we can’t seem to scout a good quaterback from college.
On the bright side, I hear that Dan Marino might be taking 1st team reps in practice starting Tuesday.

Depending on whether Penne decides to retire or not...
If he does, it’ll be interesting to see if the FO offers him some sort of position to coach. I think his knowledge of the league and solid preparation skills from a veteran’s perspective are still a benefit to have around to mentor the young QB’s and WR’s we have. Either way, he’s been nothing but a class act and has represented the Dolphins professionally in every way.

He is a good but not great QB yet, and he has an excellent supporting cast (true #1 receiver, best TE in history and one of the best rushing attacks in the game). Don’t compare please.
Henne is now thrown into a not so great situation, just hope the line holds up well and we get enough plays on Defense to help him.

but I gotta disagree.. Knowing what we know now about Matt Ryan, he would be better for our future. Regardless of what he has around him, he’s shown that he’s a good QB. Long was a good pick, and at the time, I argued that it was the right pick, because nobody was really sure about Ryan, and we couldn’t afford to miss on that pick. Jake Long will be a great LT, but IMO, it’s always better to have a top-flight QB than anything else.

But, I am not ready to think about the 2010 draft right now. There are 13 games left and I plan to enjoy cheering on the Fins in every one. I hope we get to see the promise and the reason they drafted Henne in his play in the coming weeks.
The only roster move should be to grab some cheap pickup off the scrap heap to have as an insurance policy #3 qb. This is Henne’s team now, let’s see what the kid can do.

and i think this goes to show just the kind of player and person Pennington is.
I am very thankful for all Pennington has done for us
He got us to the playoffs. He’s the reason why I bought my 2008 AFC East championship shirt.
Now I’m torn, Pat White who I was a HUGE fan of during his college career, or Chad Henne, who I love now only because he’s a Dolphin, and HATED during his college career cause I’m an even BIGGER Fighting Irish fan.
I think Pat White is a serious winner. Tim Tebow credentials, if anyone else on earth has any, but something in my gut knows this Michigan boy has what it takes, too. This is gonna be a fun season after all.
Here's to hitting your head jumping off the bandwagon.
A system qb?
Or just a guy whose talents were well suited for the college game?

We're looking at this wrong way...
about 8 years ago, a certain veteran QB got hurt early in the year, and an unproven young QB from Michigan, who had a less than stellar college career, stepped into the void. 7 years and 3 Super Bowl titles later, he’s widely considered one of the best QB’s of this generation..
Ladies and Gentlemen, our Drew Bledsoe just got hurt, and hopefully our Tom Brady just stepped into the huddle… We’re going to the Super Bowl lol

Reminds me of the scene in the Wizard of Oz movie...
… where the Dorothy and the three companions are walking through the scary forest and see the sign Beware of Ghosts… and after the tin man denies their existance and is thrown thru the air… you find the cowardly Lion saying:
“I do believe in ghost, I do believe in ghost, I do I do I do I do..!”
I do believe in Henne, I do believe in Henne, I do I do I do I do!!!!!!

As disturbing as it will be to see you
in your birthday suit imagine the level of legend that you could achieve not just on this site (levels not previously seen or imagined) but in general just for one crazy stunt. Of course this will be followed by a stint in jail and the millitary may have something to say about it.

Im kinda excited guys...
Lets see what Henne can do! I know he will make mistakes, but lets hope he makes big plays and makes our team more exciting! I am so tired of 5 yard check down throws all game!

The best spin?
The offense has every reason to circle the wagons and let young Chad shoot his gun.
The defense now has a mission. Head ’em off at the pass.
Armchair QB's always complete the pass and armchair coaches always pick the right players.
Yes, Larry Little is still the man.
Screw Tyler Thigpen
We should be going after Jeff Garcia!
In retrospect
Tyler is more experienced than Henne & White, so it’s better than having nothing. But they still better activate P Turner dammit!
