Quote:Design plays to get the ball out of Henne's hands as quickly as possible and I am not talking about handing it off.

 

Just design a few different plays to get the ball out of Henne's hands in about 2 1/2 seconds.

 

 

 

The problem is that Henne just isn't very good at getting rid of the ball quickly.  He hesitates and by then it's too late.  He seriously reminded me of Gabbert last week.

 

This article has some good information in it.  It's clearly not all on Henne but a QB that could get the ball out quicker would help a lot.

A brief part of the article:

 

A large portion of the OL issue comes with the quarterback play from Chad Henne. Henne’s average time to sack is 3.22 (close to average in the NFL). When he gets the ball out under 2.55 seconds, he’s completed 52% of his passes (Last in the NFL) while being sacked 3 times while throwing the 3rd most passes (53 dropbacks). After 2.55 seconds, Henne has completed 57.1%, while being sacked 10 times in 33 dropbacks.

 

Again it's not all Chad's fault but being the starting QB he faces a lot of criticism and he's struggled with getting the ball out quickly.  I don't know if he can't make the read or what but it's been bad.  Another reason why I think Blake would fare better, he showed the ability to do these things every time that he's stepped on the field thus far.
