Quote:You're not getting it.  I'm not saying that a new QB will equal more wins.  I'm saying that expecting more wins out of Henne is stupid.  He played to his ceiling last season and it was just as unimpressive as he's ever been.  He gets garbage time stats when we're being blown out and throws INT's when it does count.

 

I'm not saying that a new QB means more wins.  I'm saying that doing the same thing while expecting a different result is insanity.  The only way to get away from the insanity is to change one of the parameters of the equation.  The one that is the most easily changed is QB with the 3rd pick of this years draft.  And you can't say with certainty that if we do pick a guy like Teddy/Bortles/Johnny that we don't have a chance to shock some people.  Maybe we get the pick right and we're South East Seattle this season.  You don't know, just as much as I don't know.  But one thing we can both agree on is that nothing is going to change at all with Henne under center and there's nothing better than this years' QB's coming out next year either.

 

I'm saying you can't be afraid to pick your guy and play him.  I'm glad Blaine got thrown into the mix when he did.  We were able to figure out he wasn't an answer that much sooner.  You don't get 6 years in the league as a QB anymore.  And in regards to Henne, he's been here for multiple seasons and he's been exactly who he was in Miami.  You have to change one of the variables to get a different result.

 

Don't just sit and wait.  Pick the damn QB and play him.  It's time to get moving instead of sitting in neutral just revving the engine.

 

Impatience always works out well.  Just ask Gabbert.  You don't double down on the lunacy by repeating your same mistakes over again.  There's no QB worth the third pick no matter how much you wish to dream it so.  The NFL isn't fast food.  You don't order what you want and consume it immediately.  Good luck to you, I don't think you'll be happy with the Jaguars for another couple years.
