Hey I couldn't find this so I figured the experts on this board would know... anyone have any idea as to how long Chad Pennington will play? I hope it's at least a half. Blowing off a party to watch him play
If Penny's all you want to see, you should go to the party.. j/k It's typical preseason subsitution. Pennington for a half, and Beck/Henne for another. If anything else happends, it should be VERY interesting.
From what I've gathered the starters are supposed to play the first half but they haven't decided yet how long to play Pennington. Apparently they are looking at it from a series rather than a playing time point of view. Expect Pennington to have a couple of series but don't be surprised to see him only play one and a half quarters if the Dolphins get more time of possession than they had in the first half of the Bucs game.
Sparano said he wants to give him plenty of series with the 1st team tonight with the majority of the rest going to Henne. I'd expect to see both Chads throwing a decent number of passes, so the WRs on the bubble can be evaluated one more time and to try and increase Pennington's timing with the WRs. JMO Just sad it's not televised for the rest of us tonight.
I found this a few days ago and posted it in another thread. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/brea...ry/640513.html Nevermind, the link has expired.
Guess I'm stuck with listening to WQAM if it will stay up this week. Last week, it was silent except for the commercials and sent me scrambling for another station.
Thanks guys, looks like it will be a wait and see tonight. Hope you all get to watch and I know it's preseason but I want to see the offense be efficient and maybe even win!
