    Well, ofcourse it had to be a Jet, the team I loathe most. But, he is a Dolphin now so I will give him my 100% support.:up:

    10 is the ceiling. 10 might get you a wild card, and even if it does, this season would be a disappointment. you guys spent like a team going to the SB and you wont

    Well my first reaction is here is the Fins starter opening day. My second is that Beck or McCown are in deep trouble.

    My stance on Pennington is still the same...I hope he is a backup to Henne or Beck. Although I hope that I know its false but between him and McCown I'd pick him but I'm not elated. I think he had potential in NY but his injuries and weak arm held him back. I hope he does well in Miami as he will have a chip on his shoulder week 1 but Beck/Henne/McCown better be ready to take his spot when he gets injured.

    A C grade move imo. Overall I'm pleased if McCown gets the boot.

    so who's the odd man out? We really going to keep 4 qb's? Maybe Beck gets traded?

    If its a crappy Pennington then yes. If its Pennington as a backup to Beck or Henne then maybe not.

    We don't have the possibility of paying for 18 interceptions with a 3rd tho.

    I hear ya. Maybe they want Henne to be the future?

    I see it as Beck,Pennington, and Henne on the roster. Maybe not in that order.

    Kinda feel bad for McCown though.

    I cant see us cutting a 2nd rounder from last year. Traded? Maybe.

    Why would we keep two vets? No good reason. Which I hope the FO agrees with.

    Josh is the odd man out IMO, its not fair to kick Beck out so soon.
    We all know that McClown is terrible.

    When we went back in time and cloned Dan Marino, oh wait that was a dream.
    ****ing reality.

    IMO you guys are gonna kick *** or suck donkey dick.
    Favre was i decline before he was surrounded with a good team and teh Packers have more talent then the Jets right now.
    Too many guys you picked up are no sure thing (with the excption of Faneca and maybe the rookie TE)

    He's your problem now guys. Good luck. He is better than what you had previously though.

    Can't wait for Opening Day:

    Favre vs Pennington.

    Facts are the facts, lets not compare apples to oranges.:up: truth is, the guy has averaged 20 INT's over the past 5 years. I never said he wasn't better than what you had, I just think Favre is a shell of what he once was.

    WELLL...

    If your going to get technical...

    in 2002 Farve started all 16 games...Fiedler was injured and lost 5 games but even then look at the stats:

    record/att/com/com%/yrds/tds/td%/ints/int%

    FARVE: 12-4-0 341 551 61.9 3658 27 4.9 16 2.9

    FIELDER: 7-3-0 179 292 61.3 2024 14 4.8 9 3.1

    not really that big a deal given one guy (Fiedler) lost 5 starts...

    Well, Chad didn't get a two year, $11.5 million deal to be the back-up. He will be the starting Quarterback in Miami for at least 2008, possibly 2009 as well. Expect a release of Josh McCown to come soon enough as Chad will tutor Beck and Henne.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3526489

    Chad IS the starter in Miami. Do not worry about Chad learning the playbook as Chad is a very smart guy and a veteran in this league. There will be a lot of similarities and with Miami's running game they shouldn't except Chad to pass it more than 25 times a game which will suit him well.

    That doesn't mean I can't wait for one of his awesome 4th quarter floaters being picked off by Darrelle Revis or Kerry Rhodes and taken to the hizzie!

    It'll be interesting to see what the week brings.

    And...does the "odd-man out" play on Saturday to display trade value?

    Seems like Beck has no chance here in Miami unless he really picks it up (thusfar). Hope I am wrong though.

    Easy to do that when 95% of your throws are dumpoffs 3-5 yards downfield and you've played in one full season in eight years.

    I really don't understand why the media keeps bringing up the possible cutting of Beck. Sparano and co. said they wanted to see what Beck can do for them, they "want" him to win the job. Don't you think that if they wanted him to win the job, they would keep him and see what they have in him? In the link that FreeStyle provided us, it said he has NOT been impressive in camp. What the hell? He has been improving over the last week and aside from the first week of camp, he has been just as good as the other competitors. Am I missing something about Beck here?

    McCown has regressed in the last week aside from today where he executed on 12 scripted plays. He has been the worst of the bunch in my opinion and should be let go. He is scheduled to start the first pre-season game and I figured they would see one last time what he brings and then they would acquire Pennington. Apparently they thought otherwise and brought in Pennington today. What I expect is after McCown's display on Saturday, he will likely be shopped around. If that fails, he will get outright released. The cap hit is $3.5 million but it is not a big deal due to us having $21 million in cap space.

    Pennington in my opinion is the better mentor for these young guys whether he starts 3 games or he starts 10. All in all, I'm not surprised to see Pennington brought in due to the familiarity with Parcells.

    Cant wait to see Ronnie Brown and Ricky knock the **** out of Rhodes or Revis en route to the said Hizzie.

    What does bother me is that we need Beck or Henne to see time this year or we're back to square one next year, of course with Chad getting hurt whenever the wind blows, we might see that earlier rather then sooner.

    Welcome to the party. 80+% of us have been doing so since 2005 when his arm became as weak as a six year old girls. Only the people who are still in love with Chad's performances in 2002 and 2004 still supported him as the starting Quarterback. Chad's a great guy, but now its war.

    Bring it on Chad. Bring it on. Bring those three yarders on! :pointlol:

    Say what you will about Favre but he doesn't throw floaters. He may throw bad passes but they aren't by any means lame ducks.




    The video posted above made me look like a moron. lol
