Quote:Downplay Henne? Agenda?


I am downplaying him because I am realistic about his limitations as a QB and can't drink the Kool-Aid that he is going to magically become a better QB than he has been? He got beat out by Gabbert last summer. My agenda is I want this team to win and I think Henne blows. I will wave my pom poms every Sunday for him even though I think he is a bum. But I don't believe he has what it takes to deliver. You can crucify me for having a differing opinion or think I have an ulterior motive. I truly don't. I am just a fan who spends good money on tickets and wants my team to look respectable. Henne has been well below average and a primary cause for our sputtering offense. Maybe he proves me wrong, but I can not allow myself to raise my hopes on someone I have no faith in.

The thing is there is no all or nothing. It's not hall of fame or scrub. The thought is that with a push from Bortles and improvement at all areas around him he can play better. 20 plus tds and 3500 hundred is not a huge task to achieve. Henne can average 250 a game. That was Gabbert barley hitting 100


The guy has shown he can play within the game plan. That's the point. No one feels he will be a top 5 probowl qb this year but if the cast around him is better then I think he can play better
