Henne looked good in the 1st pre-season game, but his inconsistency is well-documented. We do not know enough about Brandon Allen to even consider him a reasonable option at this point.

Back in 1995, Tom Coughlin acquired Mark Brunell from the Packers for a mid-round draft pick. It was probably the best move he ever made along with trading Rob Johnson for a 1st rounder who turned out to be Fred Taylor. I suggest that he calls Green Bay again to see if they would take a 3rd or 4th round pick for Brett Hundley. There are similarities between Brunell and Hundley. Both had very good careers in the Pac 10 and were stuck on teams lead by future Hall of Fame quarterbacks. The odds of Brunell becoming a pro-bowler who would take the Jaguars to the AFC Championship twice were not very good at the time of the trade. But it did happen and there isn't a close second as far as best quarterbacks in Jaguars history.

Brett Hundley is the best option right now. It would not cost the Jaguars a lot and they would have a year to see if he has what it takes to be their quarterback of the future. If not, next year's draft has several excellent prospects. Forget about McCarron (the price is too high ) or Kaepernick (for the obvious reasons).

Make the call, Tom, and let's see if deja vu can happen again!

Quality post dude. People need to stop holding on just like when they accepted Gus for another year. Cut the loss now. Its smart business to stop the hemorrhaging. Last time Henne started he did not have this running scheme and talent. Bortles has already shown that it wont matter the scheme or scenario. He threw two more pick sixes on his day off for God's sakes.
