Perhaps, but not this year.

So did Randal Williams, have you seen him dropping passes in camp anymore?

OK, we've heard it from the horses mouth. Parcells let the cat out of the bag today regarding depth at the QB spot ...

If (key word) someone is brought in, who do you think gets cut at QB?

Surely, we won't keep 4 QB's on the roster ...

Henson, I'll buy his ticket and drive him to the airport if need be.

Hensons suporters over estimated his chances to be NFL ready last year. This year its almost denial. Romo is taking the job from him. Good news is we are going to hava nice prospect backup QB.

Decision sooner than later - Per BP.....

To spread the money out and backload the contract. Also, time to develop. Henson wont be around for the final years of that contract (if he makes it that far, who knows?) if he hasn't shown something.

It's like I had a crystal ball.

I don't have anything against him personally, but if we have fans/coaches who keep holding onto this pipe dream that Henson is somehow our future QB (or even future backup, for that matter) it will only hold our team back as we wait, year after year, for him to be ready when we can do in FA or the draft next year to solve it now.

one of the young guys would go on IR

which prompts me to wonder: is there anything wrong with Henson? maybe the change of delivery is straining his shoulder.

If this because somebody said that then speculate what if........the point of all this is what?

I don't care if the QB of the future is Romo or Henson. At this point I would just like to see each get some extended playing time so we all can see if either has a future in this league. Once proven they do or do not then we have something to talk about.

So in your mind Parcells should cut him tomorrow and if he doesn't he's a dunce?

The team quite obviously sees something in our players or there would be roster moves.

Next you'll tell me all about 30 yard slants and how he can't make that throw. It's all good, I can break out that passing tree any time you need another lesson.

Evidently, your patience is infinite. The hallmark of a great educator, as I'm sure LTN will attest to. As for myself, I have far less optimism regarding the prospects of redeeming the incorrigible. Even a waste of pixels, trivial though it might be, seems a shame to me. Suppose that makes it a good thing that our education system is populated by people like you and LTN, rather than jaded sorts like me.

Barring injury, we will have the same 3 QBs on our roster at the end of the season that we have on our roster now.

No, in my mind IF Henson is really playing as badly as the reports are saying and IF BP really wants to cut a QB, in my mind its got to be Henson. I have no problem keeping him if we are going to keep everyone, but if we are signing someone else and someone is to be cut, Romo is playing much better this year (and last year, as well) than Henson.

The team quite obviously sees something in our players or there would be roster moves.

Or maybe Jerry doesnt want to admit how dumb of a move it was? It wouldnt be the first time he's kept a player for his own prides sake and was trying to save face.

What can I say, I laughed. ;)

I tend to fluctuate between patience and amusement. Right now I am amused. I doubt he picks up the gauntlet I tossed down. The bruises from the last time he tried are just starting to disappear. Still you never know, he may give it another shot.

You have your opinion, I have mine. However, when Henson is left rotting on the bench for the rest of his career, you and those of your mindet will be left thinking "damn, was I wrong".

I'll believe there's some smoke to the "bringing in another QB fire" when I actually hear Parcells bring it up as opposed to answering a question that was meant to get the response it did. In the meantime this is a non issue.
