I specifically say that I dont want Henson to fail,

Then why take every opportunity to bash him, call him out, and rehash your same, tired old lines without actually seeing the kid.

Give me one reason, any reason, as to why i should have hope based on these games? Give me one, and I'll never speak on the subject again.

Progress withing the offense. Leading sustaines scoring drives. Making smart plays, not turning the ball over. Not taking sacks. Showing good athleticism. Good decision making. Definite improvement over the last time we saw him in the preseason, and marked improvement over his first NFLE game.

There, I don't know how many reasons that is, but I'm sure that won't keep you from opening your mouth again on the subject. After all, you haven't even seen the games. :rolleyes: So you're MORE than qualified to speak on Drews progress, or lack thereof.

Moral victories are something else, arent they? He was the reason we almost lost that Chicago game, and was pulled at halftime.

He was playing against 2nd and 3rd teamers when he went 6 for 6.

He only "outplayed" Romo in 2 games, and was dominated by Romo in the last preseason game.

Good QBs play through injuries. Farve, Aikman, Roathisberger, Elway, Marino, on and on and on.

Ed Reed has been demoted to 3rd string ?

Would you stop watching the Boys if Henson ever became the starter ? You seem to have serious hate for the guy.

He "almost" lost it? But he never trailed in the game hmm funny how that works

He was playing against 2nd and 3rd teamers when he went 6 for 6.

Wow I didnt realize Reed and Lewis got demoted that day

He only "outplayed" Romo in 2 games, and was dominated by Romo in the last preseason game.

Oh poor HH we went over this already Henson outplayed Romo in the first 3 games, by the time the 4th rolled around he had the backup job wrapped up already, and only played one series in the 4th game and then the third stringer (Romo) played the rest.

Good QBs play through injuries. Farve, Aikman, Roathisberger, Elway, Marino, on and on and on.

And he played through it without omplaint.

He threw no INTs last week, then he throws 1 this week, has a fumble, and completes 50% of his passes.

That's not progress, thats floundering in a talent pool not worthy of American play.

And you saw none of it.

Guess no NFL QB would ever throw an INT, or make ill-advised throws, huh? Never mind the fact that he rebounded quite nicely in the game (which, I might point out, you didn't actually see).

so any qb that ever has a week like this is a failure? i would think that would be every quarterback.

Stats don't tell the whole story. Why are you guys arguing with someone who hasn't even watched the games? How can you give his opinion credence - at least with respect to what Henson is doing in NFL Europe?

In other news, Roger Staubach was WAYYYYYYYYYY overrated.

I mean, I never actually saw him play, but.....

Nobody is giving his opinion any credence, just exposing it for the agenda driven nonsense it is.

I understand that you're not doing it explicitly. All I'm saying is that it's sufficient to say, "you never saw the games, how can your comments on his progress have any credence whatsoever?"

I know this question wasnt directed at me but I'll answer it. No I wouldnt.

I blame JJ for all this. He's had 6 years now to get a young QUALITY NFL QB. Instead he goes out and brings in MLB rejects on the cheap. It's been so bad for Cowboy fans that we actually try to convince each other that these guys are IT and none of them were/are.


I cant believe we actually debate/debated over these guys.

You have to see the game before making a comment like that. Because it is very obvious your conclusions are way off base.

Too many defencive starters shown there BigD....

I was looking for the scrubs but couldnt find them, I guess they didn;t actually play that game. I guess HH was wrong, who would have guessed.
