Miami Dolphins QB Hunt

There is no doubting the fact that Chad Henne, the Miami Dolphins starting quarterback, is not living up to expectations.  After a relatively good rookie campaign, Henne seemed to step backwards last year, and the fan base has let it be heard.

I personally still believe Henne has potential.  But, I also agree, he needs to be on a short leash.  With new offensive coordinator, Brian Daboll, on board, I am excited for what this could mean for the offense.  You know, things like not running the Wildcat out of 3rd and long just because we can, or throwing a pass to the flat on 2nd and a mile.  I also hope that, with head coach Tony Sparano on the hot seat, and Daboll's "opening up the playbook," maybe Henne will break out of his overly cautious style of play, and start showing us all the arm we believe he has.

And, I believe, a big part of Henne's difficulties at the position last year was a fear of the turnover.  Following and learning from Chad Pennington, Henne learned to not make turnovers.  Sparano's number one concern was not making turnovers.  When all you hear is how killer the turnover is, you don't take chances.  Maybe, just maybe, Henne can be coached out of his over-coaching.

But, even if Henne is the man this year, the Dolphins have made no secret that they are going to sign/trade for a veteran QB to challenge Henne. 

But, who is it going to be?  There are rumors.  There are possibilities.  There is no CBA.  No matter what the Dolphins would like to do, the lack of a CBA makes it harder and harder for whomever comes in to unseat the incumbent Henne.  But, that leash will get shorter and shorter depending on who it is. 

Star-divide

Here are the possibilities:

Carson Palmer(CIN) - Palmer is demanding a trade, but the Bengalsrefuse to allow it.  Palmer says he will retire rather than play for the Bengals again.  He's probably the top target for Miami, but I doubt this deal happens.  This seems like a bigger stalemate than the CBA.

Donvan McNabb (WAS) - McNabb's most likely going to be available.  But, will it be trade or will he be released by the Redskins, who seem set on either Rex Grossman, or - try not to laugh - John Beck.  I don't think the Dolphins will consider McNabb seriously, either way.

Brett Favre(MIN/retired) - No, no, no.  Well, maybe.  But no.  Either way, I have seen/heard rumors that Miami would be interested if Favre wanted to come back...again.  I think they are just that.  Rumors and stories.  There is no way that (1) Miami wants him and (2) he wants to come to Miami.  But, there are stories...

Matt Hasselbeck(SEA) - Intriguing possibility.  Seattle seems 50/50 on if they want to resign Hasselbeck.  Being up here in Seattle right now, there are radio and news stories about him constantly.  Fans want him back.  Fans don't want him back.  Fans want him back.  Either way, I think he wants a two year deal, and the Seahawksare only offering one.  If you are looking for a veteran QB to challenge a young player, or be ready to go if that young QB fails, Hasselbeck may not be a bad choice.

Kerry Collins(CHI) - Veteran QB? Check.  Starter experience? Check.  Quarterback that has been beaten out of a starting role by Kurt Warner, Eli Manning, Rich Gannon, Marques Tuiasosopo, and Vince Young(multiple times)? Check.  Collins announced his retirement a week ago, but he's still a name out there.

Vince Young (TEN) - Young has been tossed around by Tennessee for a while, and finally was released. The story behind Young seems to always return to an immaturity/inability to handle the pressure of being an NFL QB.  He has his hot streaks, but as soon as things go bad, it seems like he falls apart completely. 

Rex Grossman (WAS) - Technically a FA, but I don't see Washington letting him go.  They love Grossman and Beck, so he shouldn't be available long.

Marc Bulger(BAL) - This is the player that most intriguing to me, personally.  His last few years in St. Louis were ugly, but reports in Baltimore say he was sharp and on his game as their backup. Bulger knows his place on a team right now is as a backup (read, not looking for starter money).  He's got experience.  He's still got talent (according to those reports).  He could very easily come in and add some pressure to Henne.  I think Bulger makes a lot of sense in Miami this year.

Miami has a lot of choices out there, and could very easily go a completely different route, especially in this lockout shortened free agency period.  Like I said, I still believe Henne can produce.  He can fix his issues.  But, he has to do it now, or else he's got to move over and let someone else try.

Either way, the hunt for Dan Marino's replacement continues.

None of these options are better than Chad Henne right now, God help us.

I would like to bring it a Matt Moore or a Caleb Hanie type of player that would be low cost, high reward transaction for us. Matt Flynn, maybe. Vince Young, if he’s actually been released, could be someone we should at least take a flier on, although locker room cancers can eat away from within.

Marc Bulger might be a good option but I see him being like Trent Green for some reason.

Matt Moore or Tony Pike would be awesome. (whoever they let go)

Moore has all the tools you look for and put together good performances when he had a decent team around him.

Pike has some potential and would be some easy picking. Would be a good #3 QB.

no matter what Carolina does at QB, we win.

Forget this debate already...

…it’s freakin’ loser talk. There’s no reason to swap mediocrity with mediocrity. Henne is your man, enough said. Bulger is the only thing to possibly happen and to bring in, and he’ll sit on the bench with a 1 or 2 year contract. Done. All names mentioned here are garbage. Swooning over someone the likes of Carson Palmer (stop for a second here, CarsonPalmer) is loser talk. Being excited over Vince Young (stop again here and say it slowly… VinceYoung) is loser talk. Being excited over the dregs of the NFL is loser talk.

on these comments regardless of the topic. I still dont believe in Carson Palmer. I dont believe in any of the Free agents out there. I mean, I know they exist, but i dont want them stifling the growth of this team. I love the idea of Bulger or McNabb becoming a back up QB. We need something better than Tyler Thigpen.

The debate portion is fine

But I think everyone is fulled resolved in where they want Miami to go in finding a QB to compete with. I know Jimbo will want anyone other than Henne and that CT will not support Henne either.

We know who wants Hasselbeck, Young, and Bulger. We also know that why they want them, such as Bulger’s underachieving offensive line, even though history shows the offensive line has always allowed Bulger to be sacked just as often when he was good. We know that a few will blame Vince Young’s problems on Jeff Fisher.

We know Ozkar will act like someone shit in his Wheaties again and will complain to TCP. He will also go on a rant about how Carson Palmer will not only be the savior to the Dolphins QB woes, but he will deliver SB championships to Miami. Palmer will even arrived on your doorstep when your wife goes into labor to deliver your child. After all, in Ozkar’s eyes, Carson Palmer is the Chuck Norris of the NFL.

And furthermore, we all know your post will eventually be hijacked by Alpha, Pot, TCP, Flip, Beave, Bacon, and the rest of the crew until it is littered with butts and monkey pictures!

I may have just forecasted everyones comments from here on out! Ms. Cleo will be so jealous…

No mention of Troy Smith,...

I like this idea for a couple of reasons. Troy is young, and I believe hungry to prove he can be a starting QB. Also I think he would come a cheap price. This I think can a healthy battle for the starting position….
But here again, is it a mediocrity for mediocrity. In the end I’m hoping Henne wins the job outright and has a pro bowl year.

Not to mention hes a buckeye,huh,lol

Most likely we end up with Vince Young,simply because hes a name to fill seats.

Troy Smith is my choice,but I am beginning to warm up to the idea of Grossman. Hopefully,Washington doesnt see what I see,and attempt to raise his contract too much.

Say what you want but there is something about Daboll that makes me think that he will work out Hennes kinks in his playability. TBH,i think the change in his demeanor comes from not only having an offensive coordinator that is more daring,but having an offensive lineman that has played with him since college that the team respects having sit downs with him.

Its well documented that Long is assisting in these unscheduled and unmonitored practices. He has less of coaches barking in his ear,and more of someone he trusts guiding him in how to be a leader for this team. Things that he might not take from the Marshalls or the Williams’,he will take from Long. I think thats why we see the most improvement this year.

What about...

Kyle Orton? He still can play. All he did was win 10 games for the Bears and lead them to the SB until they turned it over to Rex Grossman to screw up in that game. He has proven his worth more than any of the above stated QB’s. Kevin Kolb? Will he be on the market? Worthy of a look see!! Both would definately challange and compete for a job. Hell, they would probably put a real short leash on Henne if he doesn’t perform.

Conspicuous by his absence

Is the only FA that intrigues me: Kyle Orton. Bulger wants to sit on the bench…where’s the push that Henne needs? McNabb’s a dinosaur, VY a head case, Palmer a remotely possible consideration with maybe a year left in the tank, Flynn too expensive and unproven, Kolb = Feeley.

Orton could cost us but chances are he has the leadership to make us competitive with the Pats and the %$# Jets. Just sayin’…

Palmer would be the best choice if the price was right ,he has always been on a losing team in the NFL.I think the QB gets a lot of the blame on losing teams,IMO he has upside.

Take Henne off the leash.

Henne hasn’t won a lot of games and he hasn’t looked particularly impressive. While the end results aren’t good, his numbers are solid and we all know that physically Henne has the tools to be a great quarterback. You say Henne should be on a short leash, I say Henne should be taken off the leash.

Anything we do with any of the other quarterbacks possibly available will just be a bandaid solution. I doubt any of those guys will take us to the playoffs in a single season the way CP did. At best will be stuck with a middling record and middling picks in the draft.

So what have we got to lose? Without a solid QB to build this team around, we’re not going anywhere anyway. So I say let Henne go nuts, let him play and have fun. If he crashes and burns, we trash him and do what it takes to grab Luck in the draft (even if we trade our entire draft for him.) If Henne surprises us, great.

The only way we going to really see what Henne can do is if we let him do it.

Well heres a shocker for you that no ones brought up

Henne has actually won more games than he has lost as a Dolphin. Check the win loss column on his stat sheet.

When he was put in due to the injury to Penne 2 seasons ago,we were already 0-3,we finished with a 7-9 season. Meaning he equated to 7 wins and 6 losses.

Add to that that he was sidelined for two games we lost last season,and that equates to 7-7 on his resume for last year.

Now do the math,that equals 14 wins,and 13 losses in his favor. not a substantial amount of difference,but difference all the same.

Also even though it was 2 seasons ago,5 of those wins came in the fourth quarter. Meaning only 9 of his games were won before the final 15 minutes.

We took away his strengths last year,and attempted to turn him into a strong armed Pennington,either way,hes still won more than he lost,which may or may not proove that our best chances this season ride on Henne’s arm.

Couple guys I like:

Hasselback: Good Vet that was on a bad team. His WRs seemed like they dropped the ball whenever they were going over the middle or in tight coverage.

Bulger: Vet that has actually played behind Flacco for a year. He won’t mind starting or sitting the bench. He played great in STL until the O fell apart.

Grossman: Will be a good replacement if we can’t get Thiggy back. Watching him a little in Washington, he might be a good fit seeing that Gates won’t be able to develop like most of us hope. He’s a classic WCO QB with nice accuracy. He settled down a lot in DC and can run that O. (This isn’t the same CHI QB we all know)

Young: A great talent without the head to use it. I have some questions about his abilities (not all QBs can throw over 35ish passes and look half decent), but he has played well so far. I’d rather get Hasselback, but he wouldn’t be a bad consolation prize.

just posted on rotoworld

NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora reports that the Dolphins will pursue Reggie Bush after the Saints release him.
“From what I’m gathering, the Miami Dolphins might actually set the market for Reggie Bush,” La Canfora reported on Total Access. La Canfora also mentioned the Eagles and Rams as teams likely to have interest, but he was the most adamant about Miami. The addition of Bush would bode well for rookie Daniel Thomas, who would likely still dominate carries in that scenario. Bush would handle third downs and probably return punts.

Ozkars come in a wide variety of types: the tiger Ozkar, the red Ozkar, the pink Ozkar, the veil tail Ozkar, and the pink veil tail Ozkar. Each Ozkar has a different temperament, but they all have the same growth rate.

The Pink Ozkars are the least aggressive so having them in your tank would require you to see that it also receives the appropriate amount of food to survive. Although, the Ozkar fish are known to be very aggressive, their wild side may be seen when they tend to feel overcrowded in the aquarium or during the breeding period.

So your saying

So your saying being coached to not make turnovers, resulted in his high turn over rate?? Does this make sense to you?

“And, I believe, a big part of Henne’s difficulties at the position last year was a fear of the turnover. Following and learning from Chad Pennington, Henne learned to not make turnovers. Sparano’s number one concern was not making turnovers. When all you hear is how killer the turnover is, you don’t take chances. Maybe, just maybe, Henne can be coached out of his over-coaching.”

I’ve heard everything except the “Phases of the Moon” implicated in Henne’s poor play last year. I’m a bit surprise how few people actually blame Henne! Did you ever think, perhaps he just sucks?

i don't know where you are getting this but it is obviously taken out of context, misquoted, or misunderstood.

Occam’s razor states that one should not increase, beyond what is necessary, the number of entities required to explain anything. The principle states that one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed. It admonishes us to choose from a set of otherwise equivalent models of a given phenomenon the simplest one.

The most useful statement of the principle for scientists is,

“when you have two competing theories which make exactly the same predictions, the one that is simpler is the better.”

That's not logical in this case...

… “Henne just sucks”, is not the better (though simplest). It demands a better, more logical process to arrive at that “theory”.
… if a lamp is broken and a leprechaun is standing next to it, one would assume the simplest theory; that the little rascal did it. But it’s not necessarily the better conclusion.
… “the razor” trims assumptions to arrive at the simplest/better theory. Maybe the leprechaun did it, but there are other assumptions that could be considered and be razored off before coming to that conclusion.
… “Henne just sucks” is good, but how did one arrive at the conclusion without trimming away the other assumptions?

Now we're taken Occam's Razor away from its original intent...

It was originally meant to help scientists formulate theories in regards to nature and physics, but has also been adapted for medicine and even tried with religion (fail).

Occam’s Razor was never meant to apply to human behavior or human performance, thus I don’t even see why it is being brought up with a debate about Henne. There are too many variables that you can come up with any theory, none of which is complex and all are rather simple.

But if you want to really get into the theory on Occam’s Razor, which many dispute, well… just remember one thing: Simple theories come from simple minds. Simple minds often lack the ability to create complex theories.

After all, Occam’s Razor would originally suggest the Earth was the center of the universe and everything rotated around Earth because from perspective viewed on Earth, that appeared to be the way it was.

However,

just because a theory is simple doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Also, the OC isn’t a “simplest” extrapolation, it is a practice that is meant to streamline other theories, to take as many unknown variables out of a possible theory.

Of course it may not be wrong

And yes, I do agree it is taken out of context. I like to blame it on the movie ‘Contact’ as for why it is interpreted the way it is.

The funny part that is ever since Occam’s Razor was used in fields in medicine and religion instead of nature and physics, where it was originally applied, it has been surrounded by controversy and heavily criticized.

Now that Occam’s Razor has been butchered to a simple phrase, does a patient really want the Doctor saying “The simplest theory is often the most correct” instead of doing their diligence to come up with possibly a more complex diagnosis, or finding that it could be multiple conditions/diseases?

I’m sure many religious leaders wouldn’t be thrilled by an Atheist claiming, “The simplest theory is not God, but evolution and possibly a mixture of other events, but not a higher being.” Yeah, Occam’s failed miserably with religion, even with the original application. Oops.

Quick question

Could Palmer retire and then come out of retirement for another team ala Old Man Favre? Or was Favre out of contract when he retired?

No, he can't

Palmer would be on the Bengals Retired-Reserve list. This means that if Palmer comes out of retirement, he still owes the Bengals the same amount of years he had left on his contract.

Brett Favre was initially on the Jets’ Retired-Reserve list, but they agreed to release him from there, thus making him a free agent, when he requested they make the move. The Jets probably assumed he wanted to sign a 1-day contract with the Packers because he still claimed he was not planning to return to football. He came out of retirement a few months later as a free agent and signed with the Vikings.
