Quick Question about Henson

[NYCowboy22]

There is nothing wrong with discussing the possible FUTURE of our team. This topic is a lot more relevant than some of the "possible" FA signings some of you come up with to improve our FUTURE, yet thosed don't get bashed.

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

If everyone skips threads that they do not like what other people say, would there be anymore replies to threads or just general concensus ?

Agreed...sometimes I do skip them...sometimes I don't...but if we all skipped them then there would not be the diversity and interest that many talk about and celebrate.

Why are they called threads anyhow ?

Your guess is as good as mine...unless it was the idea that a thread by itself does not make a (clothing or towels or other things) but linked together can make an item.

Who knows.

You are right there is nothing wrong with the discussion...nor is there anything wrong with someone stating their opinion on the discussion...as long as it does not break guidelines.

 

[Charles]

Sure they are becuse we all know that every time you point out a 10 page thread it is about what that player did on the field. I've noticed that you never point out all the other 10 page threads. Just the one topic.

What the hell are you driveling about?

I find it laughable that posters would spend time on 10 pager about a player that is no longer on the team. I have done it, doesn't change my opinion that it is laughable and inconsequential (thanks for the correction by the way).

First let's start with a little observation. You've never taken this stance in our previous 3 years of jousting.

I never have because last time I checked I don't seem to recall anyone starting threads about Tony Romo (3rd stringer) in 2003 (the last time we were in the play-off hunt) during the week leading up to game 14 against the Eagles after a loss to the Dolphins on ThanksGiving.

Maybe someone did. I guess it was ignored because Romo didn't have pedigree or something

The reason why you are right now is real obvious, you're gloating over the fact my pedigree beliefs aren't paying off right now.

wow you've got a serious persecution complex. I don't care what beliefs anyone brings to the board........ for or against, has "it" or doesn't have "it", the facts are every player has to Prove it on the field.....Henson hasn't yet and like I told you 3 years ago, you'll never know regardless of your beliefs until he earns his way on the field. Beating out Romo would be a start :

I'm patient. You're transparent.

I am very transparent. Thanks bro

Now as to these players being "inconsequential" that really is an ignorant statement and shows just how far you've sunk in trying to redeem yourself from the multiple butt whippings. No player on a team is inconsequential to that team. The 3rd string QB does run the scout team. Yeah Charles, there's no value in that.

Butt whippings.........

Okay I get your point!!!

At this point and time Henson is as consequential as

Crowder , Tom
Curtis, Tony
Jamison, Vontrell
Kincade, Keylon
Rector, Jamaica
Snell, Shannon
Tarullo, Matthew
Tolver, J.R.

We also know that no team ever has to use a 3rd string QB in a game. Unless you pay attention to 2001.

2005 Drew Henson
2004 Drew Henson 1/2 the year, Tony Romo half the year.
2003 Tony Romo
2002 Clint Stoerner
2001 Quincy Carter, Ryan Leaf, Clint Stoerner, and Anthony Wright all spent times as the 3rd guy due to injury.

Yet another agenda shot to hell.

This was a nice effort at least.

Its not an agenda Hos.

Your making it one because your dog in this race to replace 8ball is on the list.

The facts any mention of Henson at this point is an exercise in futility. Our starting QB is playing well and leading all votes for QBs in the NFC for the Pro Bowl. Romo earned rave reviews from Parcells during the off-season and Henson hasn't done anything on the practice squad to surpass Romo.

He'll only be of consequence if either Drew or Romo got injured or played poorly.

For know he left on a list of players where quite frankly it doesn't look good.

 

[Hostile]

Point being...if I don't like QB threads and I express my opinion on the matter...you reply with basically saying..>Skip them.

So I say if I express my opinion and you do not like it...Will you...Skip them aka my opinion, will you skip it if you don't like it.

I doubt it.

 

[rcaldw]

8ball? I guess we know where you stood on Aikman. Yea, you know QB's. (Charles' post)

 

[Charles]

Hos: Do you not know that only starters need be discussed here? No one else matters. Do not dare to pose questions, raise topics, or start threads pertaining to third string QBs, practice squad wideouts, or kickers.

Yet, you may post a zillion times daily about who does and does not think the Cowboys will win on Sunday. From Dr. Z to the neighbor's wife. If they don't respect Dallas, we must hear about that.

But not this. Not Drew Henson.

I agree. Your free to post whatever you want (of course don't break rules), but I am also free to post my opinion on that thread. IMHO at this point and time (in respect to out teams status), Henson and quite frankly most other 3rd string QBs are of no consequence................

 

[aikemirv]

Funny, a simple discussion on throwing motion and injury about Henson turns into this crap.

Why did it turn into this crap?

Because Nors and Charles wanted to weigh in about hoe right they are and about how wrong everyone else is.

I for one like to know what is going on with Henson.

What is so bad about that?

Future or not, Henson has put in a ton of work since becomming a Cowboy, Has the talent necessary to be a NFL QB, some will try to argue I'm sure.

The question is, can he overcome the layoff and lack of experience to become a productive QB in the NFL.

No one really knows at this point and many have their opinions.

Why can't we have a simple discussion about him without having this "I told you so" crap thrown into the middle of it?

 

[BrAinPaiNt]

I doubt it.

See...we are just doing the same thing...just on opposite sides of the feeling meter on the QB topic.

 

[aikemirv]

I agree. Your free to post whatever you want (of course don't break rules), but I am also free to post my opinion on that thread. IMHO at this point and time (in respect to out teams status), Henson and quite frankly most other 3rd string QBs are of no consequence................

Start your own thread of how you don't think Henson will cut it. This thread was not about that!!

In addition, I'm not so sure they are RIGHT. Parcells simply made the choice they would have made. Parcells chose Vinny last year. That means all Vinny Testaverde lovers were right. SO WHAT? WHAT DID IT GET US?

People are right about things (in terms of predicting what someone else will do) all the time that turn out to be disasterous.

I think the Dallas Cowboys would be a lot better off if Bill Parcells didn't think so much like Nors and Charles.

So "we were right" doesn't matter squat to me. Was the right choice for the future of this franchise made? That is the question that counts.

And, for my 2 cents worth, I think the wrong choice was made. I know, I know. I'm not Big Bill with all "his" success. I'm also not a Vinny Testaverde fan. HOW BOUT THEM JETS!!

 

[Charles]

Because Nors and Charles wanted to weigh in about hoe right they are and about how wrong everyone else is.

What am I right about. I don't know if Henson is going to get over the hump and I have never stated he won't

I for one like to know what is going on with Henson.

What is so bad about that?

Nothing is so bad. But IMHO at this point in the season with our current record its about as consequential as how well Tony Curtis is running routes and blocking on the practice squad. Just my opinion

 

[scottsp]

Doesn't look like the Casper Star Trib is liking us too much this week either.

How many threads were about a player not even on the team? TO

I did not see you complaining about those.

It gets old talking about how bad the OLine is on 20 different threads, some devote pages to who we are going to draft - not even on the team.

I don't understand your problem with this thread. It goes on every day, all day long.

Is it something you have against Henson that brought you to complain about this one?

 

[Hostile]

What the hell are you driveling about?

I find it laughable that posters would spend time on 10 pager about a player that is no longer on the team. I have done it, doesn't change my opinion that it is laughable and inconsequential (thanks for the correction by the way).

You never saw the start Clint Stoerner threads when we were stuck with Q and Hutch?

Yeah right.

Maybe someone did. I guess it was ignored because Romo didn't have pedigree or something

Last year there were Tony Romo threads while he was 3rd string. Pay attention.

wow you've got a serious persecution complex. I don't care what beliefs anyone brings to the board........ for or against, has "it" or doesn't have "it", the facts are every player has to Prove it on the field.....Henson hasn't yet and like I told you 3 years ago, you'll never know regardless of your beliefs until he earns his way on the field. Beating out Romo would be a start :

It isn't a persecution complex at all. I knew as soon as I said I really liked Drew Henson how you'd react. You've not disappointed at all. From issues with sig pics to telling me what I think, you've been entertainign to say the least.

I am very transparent. Thanks bro

Any time.

Butt whippings.........

Okay I get your point!!!

At this point and time Henson is as consequential as

Crowder , Tom
Curtis, Tony
Jamison, Vontrell
Kincade, Keylon
Rector, Jamaica
Snell, Shannon

Tolver, J.R.

You really don't know how vital a scout team is do you? That's sad.

Its not an agenda Hos.

For know he left on a list of players where quite frankly it doesn't look good.

You assume no career can ever happen that doesn't begin as a starter?

I think I'll go with the coaching staff's contention that they want to develop him a certain way and that they are happy with his progress. Call me silly.

 

[Charles]

How many threads were about a player not even on the team? TO

many........still doesn't change the fact that those threads lost all consequence in relation to this season once the abitrator ruled against TO.

I did not see you complaining about those.

Who said I complaining about this thread. Don't confuse stating ones opinion with complaining. I've stated my opinion, you don't like it the world isn't a fair place

It gets old talking about how bad the OLine is on 20 different threads, some devote pages to who we are going to draft - not even on the team.

I agree, but our Oline play could be the difference between a play-off run and .................... get my point much more consequence.

I don't understand your problem with this thread. It goes on every day, all day long.

I don't have a problem. I just gave an opinion that ruffled some feathers.

Is it something you have against Henson that brought you to complain about this one?

I have nothing against Henson. I just think he's of no consequence at this time. If he's to play due to injury or poor play then he'd be of consequence, but I am afraid that would definately conicide with a lost season.........a season of no consequence like 2001 and 2002. Funny that the last time our 3rd stringers got any air time during the season. There's a reason their listed as inactive on game day.........

 

[CowboyManDan]

I would just like to see Henson get play much more. I like his physical tools, plain and simple.

I want a young QB (whether it's Henson or someone else). I'm not a fan of bringing in retread QBs. A retread vet QB might make us competetive for a short time, but it will probably not ever make us elite.

Since when, on a Dallas Cowboys board, did the threads have to have consequence with the current season?

Why did you chooses THIS thread to complain about threads with no consequence?

If you opinion is about consequence then this is one of the last threads to complain about because it is about a Cowboys player, on a Cowboys board.

Hide it all you want but you chose this thread to dump on Henson, not because it was the one of the least consequence!

 

[Jarv]

I like knowing whats going on with Henson too, probably because I'm not satified with Drew Bledsoe. heck I'm interested with whats going on with Romo, for the same reason.

Both of those guys played extremely well in College. Wish we could see practices to make our own decisions instead of hearing the coach's see them in practice and know what they can do.

I guees it comes down to belive nothing you hear and only half of the things you see.

Well, I saw Vinny last year and was not impressed. I wanted to see the young guns last year in the last 2 games that meant nothing...i didn't get to do that and I'm pissed.

I would rather see with my own eyes that these young guns suck in a REAL game situation than just hearing about it from practices I never get to see and really only hear rumors about.

Heck, this whole thread (Whatever a thread is BP ?) was started because we really don't know what is going on ? Someone was looking for info an wether Henson was hurt at one time this year. 6 pages and I still don't know...lol

 

[Charles]

You answered your own question.

Let the butt whipping commence

You never saw the start Clint Stoerner threads when we were stuck with Q and Hutch?
Yeah right.

During the 2001 and 2002 season

Wow......I've never had a butt whipping like this.

Last year there were Tony Romo threads while he was 3rd string. Pay attention.

Its kind of hard when I am getting a butt whipping.

It still doesn't change the fact that the cowboys were in the hunt for the play-offs until the last 3 games and neither Romo nor Henson had done anything in practice to surpass Vinny........ so then..... again any threads about him would have been of no consequence.

It isn't a persecution complex at all. I knew as soon as I said I really liked Drew Henson how you'd react. You've not disappointed at all. From issues with sig pics to telling me what I think, you've been entertainign to say the least.

I can't take this whipping any more :spanking:

You really don't know how vital a scout team is do you? That's sad.

I do. They are very vital to every team, but at this point and time when our starting QB is playing well and our back-up hasn't given up his spot, then quite frankly Henson is as inconsequential as Kincade is to our Running game.

You assume no career can ever happen that doesn't begin as a starter?

No.
But it would be nice if your dog in this race could atleast show the ability to push for or earn the starting job. He hasn't done either in the last 2 seasons.

I think I'll go with the coaching staff's contention that they want to develop him a certain way and that they are happy with his progress. Call me silly.

Thats cool. So do I. It doesn't change the fact TODAY based on our QB situation, leading up to the Chiefs game Henson is as conseuquential as to the passing attack as Kincade is to the running attack capiche!!!

I am tired of the butt whipping you get the last word.
