Quick Question about Henson

[sonnyboy]

Nice Henson thread RCLADW!

 

[Hostile]

No offense to anyone, but there were times last season where I was almost hoping Testeverde went down so we could see more of our young QBs. And if the playoffs ever get out of reach this season, I might start thinking evil like that again.

I never wish injury on anyone but it would almost take that for Parcells to come to his senses on the issue. I understand exactly what you mean for last year and for this year.

i find it odd to read how our 3rd string quarterback is inconsequential at this point when he could potentially be a 2nd-stringer through injury. arguably, it would be relevant in the event bledsoe does miraculously sustain injury in the upcoming games. the question the coaching staff would pose is, "does romo starting give this team the best chance to win?" perhaps, then again, maybe not.

on another point, knowing whether we have a potential quarterback in henson would best serve this organization to determine whether we may indeed need to acquire one through the draft.

There really is no senses he needs to come to this season. Unless we are mathematically eliminated, there is no reason to play either. And chances are we won't know that until kickoff of the Rams game, which would not allow us any prep time with the QB.

Last season was a different story, however. He certainly missed the ball with that one as even a blind man could see we were eliminated after the Saints game.

Nice Henson thread RCLADW!

COMMERCIAL: THIS HENSON THREAD BROUGHT TO YOU BY FOLKS LIKE SONNYBOY, NORS AND CHARLES.

My intentions were exactly what I stated. I just wanted an update. It was others who turned it into what it has become. Anyway, if the thread cures some boredom and gives some good discussion, I'll be glad to say I started a Henson thread.

I dunno Hos... Are we sure absolutely, positively sure that wheelchairs aren't allowed on the field?

I searched the rules. I can't find anything. My hopes are now dashed.

Thank you.

According to Key ,the liar, Henson did suffer a thumb injury.

The playoffs don't start today. Capiche?
We are on a 2 game losing streak. Capiche?
If we lose to Kansas City this weekend you can kiss this season goodbye. Capiche?

Romo is our backup, and our headcoach has shown great judgment on QB's, ask Vinny, he will tell you.

Your right, lets move on.

if we lose to KC, we still have the playoffs, we just need to beat Washington and Carolina to keep the conference record advantage we hold over Atl

Last year that was enfuriating. Parcells said we were still in the playoff race although realistically it wasnt gonna happen. We should have at least played Henson 4-5 games at least, just to see what he can do. Doesnt seem like Henson is ever gonna play though. I think that was a JJ experiment, and Parcells wants none of it.

 

[Bob Sacamano]

quick question

why are people still stuck on last year?

guess it comes with the territory...

Henson threads lol

 

[DIAF]

A nice, friendly thread drug though the mud.


Sigh.

Add a few dash of Nors and everything becomes ********. He drags the IQ of this forum down.

 

[Joe a Cowboys fan]

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.

Yah gotta give Clint his due(Arkie where are you now), he hung on forever at third string QB. Props to Clint. My only question is this discussion so impassioned because we could lose all three of our QBs and not do any better next year?

Nah, me and Charles have been squaring off since he called himself Qcard. We actually respect each other. Just like joking.

 

[Joe a Cowboys fan]

Just like joking.

I know, just like siblings. The QC era was good for QB discussions. I preffered the Roger/Troy eras when the only question was are they healthy. IE can they stand up and throw the ball.

If we hypothetically lose two of the next three I would love to see Henson, or maybe Romo take a turn at the wheel. When Tuna won the SB it was with a QB he actually drafted. So far he hasn't drafted any and it makes me crazy.

 

[kartr]

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?

Henson=crap. Not even worth thinking about. Romo has been struggling in practice, yet Henson is still third string. Nuff said.

 

[kartr]

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?

Because we were better with that player who is no longer on the team. We routed the likes of Detroit on their own field, not sleepwalk to pitiful lackluster 20-7 win. That player also never lost to the Skins and always played well against the Giants and beat the Eagles when they were good even though he had a less talented team than the one we have now. Big difference between him and the likes of Henson who can't even beat out Romo. We would be laughing at Washington if they were pinning their hopes on Henson as their qb of the future. If we had Washington's qbs and they had ours, we would be laughing at the idea that they thought (Bledsoe,Romo and Henson) had more potential.

No we weren't better.

Parcells himself said this is a better team. I wouldn't be laughing at Washington if the were pinning their hopes on Henson as their QB of the future. Just like I won't laugh at Campbell as their QB of the future.

This is how things get taken out of context.

the quote by Parcells was

"Romo is not as sharp as he was in preseason"

But you now say he is struggling - there is a big difference!

Henson= crap
? for you - Have you seen 1 single practice since the season began?

How in the world would you know?!!!!!

I disagree, Henson has not seen the field but for a single half and a bit of another...

So Nobody has had a chance to see enough of his in game performance to make any assessments at all... Not Bill, Not Jerry, Not Shaun and certainly not Katr... so all we have to go on still is the pedigree and he still has it like it or not... even if he was playing for Washington or Timbukto
