Quote:I see what you are saying Kane but even with those first years added in Smith still has quite a few more TDs than INTs and has a winning record as a QB...Smith's first year of 1 TD and 11 INTs really drags him down...

 

Smith has thrown for more TDs and INTs 5 out of the 8 years he has played games and had the same 1 year...so only 2 times has he thrown for more INTs than TDs...that was his rookie year and a year in which he had 2 TDs and 4 INTs.

 

Henne has never thrown for more TDs than INTs.

 

Smith has led teams to the play offs and has a winning record as a starting QB...Henne has never led a team to the play offs nor won more than 7 games when he started the majority of the games and has a seriously losing record as a starting QB.

 

Now I am not saying Smith is good...but when comparing careers Smith is the better QB.

 

Also would you say that Henne or Smith had the "rougher" road during their first 5 or 6 years in the league...I would say Smith.

 

Do you honestly think that Henne could have led KC to the same record this year or SF to the same record in 2011 or started 7 - 1 in 2012?  Because I don't even with all that talent around?

I don't think anyone can fairly answer that question.  Alex Smith has played with a talented 49 and KC team. Henne has never been given the chance to play for a talented team.  Henne is tough and will stand in the pocket and take a hit to make a play. I want to see what he has in him with a talented team and coming into the season as the starter. The big issue with Henne is he throws too many ints.  Henne is simply a hot/cold QB. At times he looks good while other times you can't stand him.  I do know certain HOF QB's like Farve made a career out of being a hot/cold QB.  I am going to give the guy a shot and see what happens.
