Do you trust Sparano and Ireland with another young qb?
start && end > -1) {
if (start > -1) {
var res = data.substring(start, end);
start = res.indexOf('>') + 1;
res = res.substring(start);
if (res.length != 0) {
eval(res);
}
}
cursor = end + 1;
}
}

This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
Would you trust this regime with the next qb, after they basically ruined Chad Hene. The guy threw the ball down field in college and was
decently accurate, yet with this regime the guy can no longer play.
How can you not coach up a guy with a strong arm and decent accuracy?
The only thing I fault Henne for doing is doing what Marino would have done and yelling that he was going to run the plays HE wanted to run which means no wildcat and that when the running game was clicking, wave off any pass play brought in and when the passing game was clicking, wave off any running play brought in.
You wait until Daboll takes over until you blame Henne.
The QB coach (whoever that ends up being) and Daboll will have the most to do with developing a young QB. Ireland won't have ANYTHING to do with it, except either drafting, trading for, or signing a QB as a FA.
I've always heard that Henne is about as intelligent as a bag of rocks, so despite the horrible play-calling from Henning, I'm not sure they really "ruined" him. On the other hand, they didn't exactly help him develop either. Regardless, the two people responsible for that failure are no longer members of the staff.
You need the total package to be successful in the NFL, which includes being both physically gifted and intelligent. Dumb, athletic QBs are rarely successful.
here's the thing---sporano and ireland are gone after this year. so the bigger question is, is any QB they bring in going to be appealing to the new regime (and will he be OK with learning 2 different offesnive systems in the first 2 years), or will he be dumped like John Beck.
maybe it's better we don't draft a QB high this year and sink or swim with Henne, and then let the new folks bring in a new guy. By the time the offense is good to go in 4 years, it will be time to rebuild the defense. groundhog day......

True, but another down year and a fanbase in revolt and Ross will dump the whole crew if it means bringing in a Cowher.
I think they need to make the playoffs and win at least one game to be retained. And I don't see even the first part happening, unless Henne or whatever QB we have has a pro bowl season (yeah right). This team is on the precipice of heading to a very bad place.
