Romo v Henson from BP PC

5Stars · Jul 31, 2006

Wouldn't it be a shame if Bledsoe were to go down sometime during the season, and Romo came in and won a SuperBowl!

Poor Bledsoe...gets shafted...again!

Dale · Jul 31, 2006

Wait, DBoys, I'm confused. Romo is in his fourth year. Henson is in his third.

It would seem to me that Romo has "passed" the three-year rule given that he is still here, while Henson is in the "prove it or bye bye" stage, as you called it.

Employing the same bad argument to emphasize it's weakness isn't creative?

He's in a spare prison, and I hope to see him break out of that spare prison this year.

Back to Henson - At some point in 3 years, don't you need to have a dynamic game or practice, atleast 1?

Yep your right my bad at least on the 3 year rule. Oh yeah Romo has proved a whole lot on the field :lmao:

Don't get me wrong though I want to see Romo play just as I saw Henson in Europe. I will feel better about about giving an opinion.

Well obviously both players still must prove themselves, but one can easily surmise that Romo has proven himself on the practice field to a much greater extent than has Henson given Parcells' public position on the two (and their placement on the depth chart).

But, my original post dealt solely with the three-year rule, and how I couldn't understand how that applied to Henson still having more time while this being a put-up-or-shut-up year for Romo. As I said, if anything, the three-year rule would seem to indicate the opposite.

Are you saying you did not see some improvement in Henson?

BP talked about how Romo is ready to play alot in the preseason. Didn't mention Henson. Preseason is a test for him.

Let the slinging begin.

HE will go with the depth he has now, but is always looking for upgrades.

at least when parcells gives these types of answers, i DO believe what he said:

We are always looking for a back-up QB, but we will also go with what we have. If you try to read anything into it you would be wrong, so don't. (but we will!)
Henson is not in that equation, he is independent of that, so we will see with what we have in him too. (no! he's gone i tell you!)
Who said I don't think highly of Henson? That is a misconception on your part. I am trying to create a situation for him to get more exposure (NFLE) and we will evaluate him when the time comes.

so - is henson gone again now?

I saw good things and bad things. All in all it was impossible to tell with that joke of a line he had.

Alexander · Jul 31, 2006

That’s a misperception on your part. He hasn’t played much football, so we tried to create a situation on him where he gets some more exposure before we put him through his test.

Clear enough?

WE MUST ARGUE THIS!!!!!!!!

wileedog · Jul 31, 2006

Even if, as seems likely, Romo enters the season as the solid #2, why would they just kick Henson to the curb?

IMO they will keep him until Bledsoe hangs 'em up. Then they will draft another developmental guy behind Henson. If/When *that* guy passes Henson on the depth chart, that will probably be the end of the experiment. Or conversely Henson may have developed enough over that time to challenge Romo for the top spot.

Either way, I don't see a zero sum game here.
