Chad Henne says Orton chants hurt his feelings

#22

I can understand his feelings, we all want to be respected for what we do. But here's the thing... Chad Henne is a professional. He is paid millions to play. How many of us would even be able to keep our job if we consistently did as sub-par a job as Henne does... and get paid millions to do it to boot! Answer: none of us.

 

Look... I wish for Henne to have success. I will not 'boo' him or any of Jaguar at games. However, Henne is a professional engaged at a professional level of sports. The Jacksonville fans have had to endure years of sub-par, even out right awful performance from it's team, particularly, it's quarterbacks and receiver corps. This is a performance driven market. That's just the way it is; that's the nature of  professional sports. If Henne wants the loyalty of the fans he first needs to earn it; he has not. Henne has time and again demonstrated his inconsistency. He is a 'stand in', a backup quarterback. He's someone to take the snap until Bortles gets on the field, that's all. This is not to say that we should 'boo' him; however, he doesn't rate the admiration of an elite player;

 

If I were getting paid the kind of money he's getting, I would be concentrating on doing my best and not worry about if the fans like me or not. As a backup, popularity isn't part of your benefits....


I y'ams who I y'ams and thats all I y'ams...
