Quote:Henne's best year he had 15 TDs (to go with 19 picks).  Not trying to take shots at the guy, but historically, he just isn't very good.  The numbers do not lie.  And they do not reflect a guy who is going to turn a corner.  Rookies like Manuel and Glennon and sub-par retreads like Campbell and Cassel put up similar or better numbers than he did.  I get that there is value in a guy knowing a system, but it isn't going to change much (unless he gets bit by a radioactive spider).  We can do better by doing pretty much anything OTHER than re-signing him.  We can keep making excuses for the guy or we can bring in someone who is competent at the position. 
That's the same fanspeak that the Jags have had about just about everything. Coaches, General Managers, Quarterbacks, and just about everything. The irony is the one constant. Every time the fans think they can do better, and start screaming for an upgrade, they end up worse off than the position they hoped to upgrade. The team is finally righting the ship from the look of things, but the fans simply won't let the process take it's course. At least this time around, I don't think it will matter all that much. I think the PTB are going to do what they think will make this team great, in spite of what the "know it all fan" thinks.


What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
