Wolverine said:Totally agree with you. BP would love to cut Henson. He just does not like him. But Jones will not allow that. Jones will keep Henson around and when BP retires then Henson will get a chance to improve and learn under the new coach. That is what I think Jones has planned.
You take a daisy.....pull the petals off one at a time saying...He loves me...He loves me not......which ever you end up with.....works every time.SultanOfSix said:***? Where does this nonsense come from that BP doesn't like Henson?
SofS, it all started a scant few day after Bill signed on, when he badgered Joe Torre about when Henson was gonna be cut loose, if at all. See, Tuna was looking for a team whipping boy and as a lifelong Sox fan, what better sucker to employ?SultanOfSix said:***? Where does this nonsense come from that BP doesn't like Henson?
CaptainAmerica said:Didn't Parcells just repeat at his last press conference the 3 year rule, he learned from Landry? I would say with Jones' involvement and Henson's unique circumstances with the layoff, he will get even longer than the 3 years.
Henson isn't going anywhere unless he could be used as trade bait to get us a young, good QB that is a known quantity and I don't see that happening.

Then, if you read the long and very good JJT story chronicaling the Henson signing, Bill was long working in top secret to bring Drew here. All the quiet negotiatons, the sending out of HIS scouts to check Drew's workout out, then his OC, watching the tapes, the 'dinner', the 'limo ride', the hard and soft sell..it was all carefully orchestrated plot to bring Henson here to be hated.
You can't just find anybody already around to hate, you gotta pursue him like a demon to make it worthwhile.
This offseason altho some reasonably competent coaches like Steve Hoffman got lopped from the payroll, monies were found to hire a QB coach. The 5000 odd passes thrown to correct the throwing moton were more examples of pure hate. That's how bad Bill wanted Henson's arm to hurt, and oddly enough, Henson actually acquiesced in it.
Tho folks like Dale, TH, BZ and Ad have witnessed Bill and DH calmly interacting, the real hate takes place behind closed doors. That's when Bill taunts Drew with Red Sox trivia questions, and makes DH say "Johnny Damon is better thabn Derrick Geter" 100 consecutive times.

da_boyz_mk said:i think the only time you cut someone is if you believe that there is no way that the guy can be a productive football player or if there is just other people on the team that are better and there is no room for him.
neither of these reasons applies to henson.
no way he gets cut.
cowboy4322 said:Thanks to all who answered, i feel the same way. It just irritates me that the media acts like Henson is going to get released or something. I say Henson will continue to get better and we will see the dividends next year.
kartr said:Guess again. There is no competition between Romo and Henson. It wasn't even close and Romo will build on his experience whenever Bledsoe is out of the game for either injuries or a blowout. Henson won't get into a game unless both Romo or Bledsoe go down. Henson will just continually fall further behind Romo. You can't make up 3 lost years when everyone else on the team is already better than you.
You missed Romo going 8-10 week 1cml750 said:Henson looked every bit as good as Romo in the first two preseason games. I for one believe he will get a lot of minutes in the next preseason game. As for as him getting cut .
