If Henson lites up NFLe?

Personally, I think it had more to do with discovering Cassell. I imagine they thought he had more upside than Davey.

Our resident Pats fan could probably tell us more.

I don't think LTN posts anymore

If Henson lights it up there will be calls to do just that but then again there are some(ok maybe just one) who would prefer to detox Quincy on the fly and have him start in between methadone treatments because 4 time pro bowler Bledsoe is just so bad. He's got a worse arm than Steorner, a worse attitude than Leaf and off-field habits putting Quincy to angelic status. Right?

For me its just a matter of Henson getting some experience.
I am not at all concerned about his age because QBs are plenty able to play well into the late 30s provided they have the head for the game and avoid injuries. Henson is not at risk of decapitation behind a poor OL right now and thats probably as it should be.

Its not like Staubach took over the club at 17 yet he managed to, uh, leave a lasting contribution.

If we cut Henson I'd be dissapointed regardless of how he performs in NFLE but I am also not ready to say he will be better QB than Romo because while coaching staffs can be wrong they always have more information than us.

I am actually completely on board with a QB status quo for next season.

A detoxed Quincy can get you to the playoffs. A drug-free Henson can't even beat out Romo.

Hutch started out quite hot but tailed off badly from what I can recall.

All that said I think BP recognized day 1 Hutch just wasn't really an NFL player who could handle the pressure of playing QB. He broke him in like 5 weeks. It took him a year(a seaosn at least) to break Carter.

One thing is certain tho and that is if a player is mentally soft BP will find out and expose it.

Thus far Henson has had zero mentally childish moments and thus that merits something with BP who seems to care more about mental toughness than early results. I have been impressed with Henson's comments thus far and he is smart enough to know lighting it up makes him attractive to other teams as well as Dallas. If he wants to play then by doing and saying all the right things he gives himself that chance.

Davey's problem may very well be the team that owned his rights. NE wasn't exactly gonna have an opening anytime soon.

He broke Carter by bringing in Henson and Vinny to replace him by breaking his promise, but Carter recovered nicely by saving the Jets season in 2004, while Hutchinson managed to get cut in preseason for poor play when he had only Grossman and Orton to beat out.

You in Quincy must have the same dealer, cause whatever you are smoking sure causes you to go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay far from reality.

Amazing how people forget why Carter is gone.

'cuz BP hates young, talented QBs?
