It's so they can use White in the Wildcat. If Pennington goes down they'll bring Henne in and just have to keep White on the sideline.

It's only a technicality.  Henne is the #2 QB, but our official depth chart has to have White at #2 or else Pennington won't be able to return to the game if we use White in the Wildcat.

Not quite true. The 3rd QB rule is misinterpreted a lot. Teams can have 45 players on game day. If they choose they can designate a 3rd emergency QB to make the roster 46. That is where the rule kicks in. If the teams activates all 3 QBs they are limited to the 45 players, but can use any of the QBs at any time they want.

Technically they can list White as #3 and play him at will. They just have to leave someone else off the roster for game day.

Either way works.

Did you see the way Pat White heaved the ball down the field.  He overthrew a wide open Ted Ginn.  Pennington can't do that.  Get some accuracy on the deep ball with White in there and Ginn will be playing to his full potential.

Thats what I thought ! Holy shit he heaved it! And it was on line , just overthrown. Overthrown is good. Its when its underthrown because you don't have the strength is a bad thing. I liked what I saw of Pat White. Henne better watch his back because he might have Whites hand prints all over it as he pushes him aside.  ;D

And Fuck Ginn is Fast !  He smoked those Corners covering him. I have a renewed respect for the Kid.

We'll never realize what Ginn can truly do until Henne or White takes over.
