Quote:Bulleyes--first of all, excellent post, and I love your analysis.  But I must disagree on Henne.

 

 

 

Chad Henne had time to throw for most of the game, yet still opted for checkdowns the majority of the time.  He wasted two times out on poor clock management (the third was on the C).  MANY passes were at the feet of receivers, overthrown, or tipped at the line.  He overthrew a wide open Marcedes Lewis on 4th and 1.  Hell, even his two TD passes required adjustments by Hurns to be completed.

 

Yes, he suffered from three drops.

 

His inability to move the ball certainly contributed to the defense's collapse in my opinion.  They were exhausted halfway through the third and it was obvious.

Thanks for the kudos...and I can understand the disagreement over Henne.

 

I reiterate I was not exactly thrilled with his second half performance.

 

I won't knock him for the checkdowns yet, because I don't know what was called on either side, what the receivers were supposed to do vs what they actually did, etc.

 

But he didn't have the devastating, Matt Schaubesque turnover that was the catalyst to the Eagles comeback.
