Oh, Shut up. NO one was screaming for Thigpen. WeLead and Mia1 and others were screaming for Penny but no one thought of Thigpen. He came in due to injury.
And Thigpen is not the reason for our completely incompetent play at every position tonight.
You are totally lost with this post. If Henne was in there he would have been killed. He is playing behind a line that was literally just thrown together and all throws were going to the right person. Put him behind a good line and we win.

Sorry. With Icognito at Center? Even the great Dan Marino would not have had time.
Just because Thigpen sucked last night dosen't mean Henne didn't.
Let's face facts. At this point there is no viable NFL QB in Miami. Not on the field, not on the bench, not on IR and not on PUP.
This is the result of 10+ years of management that has marginalized the QB position and believed that all they needed was a journeyman or lower rounds 'Project' to go with the dominating defense and unstoppable running game they were going to build. What is needed is a philosophy change.
Shula took the players he had and designed the team around them. They were ALWAYS competitive.
Jimmy Johnson, Wanny, Parcells, etc, etc, etc have tried to force the team to be what they wanted it to be. The results are obvious.
How can we be so hard on Thigpen, he had maybe 3 practices with the first team offense! Not close to enough time to develop chemistry with the center, or your recievers or even your running backs. Not to mention the fact our line is holier than a catholic church. The bears knew what they were doing in focusing on the run, they knew Thigpen didn't have time to get rhythm with the team. Give him this next week to practice and he will improve and hopefully we get some of our oline issues resolved
"It's been fun to get the reaction of visiting coaches to the color of their locker room. Most don't notice it, but those that do are in trouble. . . . When I talk to an opposing coach before a game and he mentions the pink walls, I know I've got him. I can't recall a coach who has stirred up a fuss about the color and then beat us.” Hayden Fry

Honestly, lets face it, all our QB's suck. Watch other NFL games out there and teams that are good easily get 3rd down conversions, with us, its like your hoping that they dont get picked off so you can kick the ball away and not give up field position

Correct, and thats why I am hoping we handle this issue in the offseason but mathematically we are still alive THIS SEASON and we now have some time to recover & prepare for a good Oakland team and Id rather have Thigpen at the helm with the risk and chance of him having a game like he did vs Tennessee
Henne, Thigpen, Pennington,......DUH!!!!! The team sucks. Yeah, that zombie brained Theisman stayed on Thiggy back but did you LISTEN!!! PLEASE LISTEN!!!! PLEASE LISTEN!!! To the announcers tearing down EVERY OTHER ASPECT OF OUR TEAM???????????????
AND THEY WERE RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We can't wrap up and tackle worth a damn. Despite the one interception barely ruled legitimate, we DROPPED TWO OTHER BREAD BASKET INTERCEPTIONS.
EACH FRIGGIN' RECEPTION MADE BY A BEAR RECEIVER WAS MADE WHEN THERE WAS NOT A DOLPHIN WITH THREE SQUARE YARDS OF HIM.
EVERY FRIGGIN' PLAY THE CENTER HIKED THE BALL ON THE SHOTGUN, THIGPEN WAS BENDING DOWN LIKE A GOLFER SETTING THE GOLF BALL ON A TEE.
RONNIE AND RICKY LOOKED LIKE THEY BELONGED IN SENIOR CITIZEN HOMES. (I tried to tell you we needed to draft Jahvid Best but you guys said I was crazy. No friggin foresight.)
The other running backs are no-named gumbies. Lousaka is only good for short yardage.
THE BRILLIANT MANAGEMENT TRADED AWAY BOTH TED GIN AND GREG CAMARILLO (WHO TO ME IS KNOWN AS WES WELKER II).
THE OFFENSIVE LINE WAS VIRTUALLY SELLING TICKETS OF ADMISSION TO THIGPEN. FOUR FRIGGIN' SACKS BY URLACHER ALONE!!!!!
DON'T GIVE ME THIS "IT'S ALL THE QUARTERBACK'S FAULT" SH_t! And if Penny had remained healthy it wouldn't be his fault either.
Now any knuckle head who wants to challenge me, godd_mnit, specifically AND I DAMN MEAN SPECIFICALLY ADDRESS EACH AND EVERY POINT ABOVE!!!
