Quote:maybe i miscommunicated my point. i think garrard would have been a better qb if he had taken more chances. alas, his supporting cast of receivers left something to be desired and perhaps this is why he didn't. henne has by extension had a worse set of receivers to work with (sans blackmon) and still had the balls to put the ball in play. again, this isn't an indictment of Garrard, simply a contrasting of styles. most ppl here reference henne as it pertains to his nfl career (and correctly so) but may not be aware that he can look and play better with a better cast.

 

Yes, Henne can look and play better at times. I have seen stretches where Henne actually looked like a Pro Bowl caliber starting QB (Yes our Henne). The problem is that these stretches are very few and far between and just don't last very long. In other words, for very short stretches Henne has looked really really good. A few times the hot stretch will end in a TD, but most of the time it will end with Henne resorting back to below avg Henne and end with either an INT, a ball that misses the rec by 5 or more yards, or a sack.

 

I consider the Jags lucky if it ends up with them getting a FG try out of it, b/c odds are Scobee will make it.
