pennington to miami??

[TonyB0D]

chad is AWFUL!!  trust me guys, i live in jets country, so i've gotten to see WAY more of him over the years than you guys have.  if you guys hated fiedler, wait till chad comes down.  he makes fiedler look like marino.  he can't throw the ball more than 10 yards at a time, and he'll be on the DL with a strained vagina in less than 2 weeks.  NO NO NO NO NO!!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. ..strained vagina...ya I've always hated him...the only times it seemed like he played good was against the phins...I'd rather start Henne right away then take Chad.

I'm no huge fan of Pennington. But Beck looks like a washout, McCown is a career journeyman, and I don't see either sticking with the team in future years...Do you bring in a Pennington to start until Henne is ready to take over midseason? Pennington, for all his flaws and limited arm strength, is better than Beck and McCown and can be an efficient QB (career passer rating 88.9) who can run an NFL offense.

Does this potentially upgrade the team somewhat, and provide a short term answer as a starter and  in the longer term provide a decent veteran back up? "Strained vagina" and all, maybe it's not such a bad idea.

Oh, Hell no.  Say this ain't so!

What he said.

Seems to be the smae people that want to bring in Chad Pennington,are the same people that seem to have warm and fuzzy memories of Jay Feidler as a Dolphin QB....Chad's smarter move is to try to get on wirth the Vikings and the Bears...

Also as a quick reminder...Terry Glenn was supposed to be All but signed sealed and delivered as a Dolphin hours after he was released from the Cowboys....

[Spider-Dan]

Didn't we go through this last year with Trent Green?

Pennington is finished.  Enough with the cast-off hasbeens.

[Dphins4me]

  While I think Chad will be in Miami, I personally so no reason for this move.

salguero update on pennington's release:

http://miamiherald.typepad.com/dolphins_in_depth/2008/08/chad-pennington.html

folks, get used to the idea that chad pennington will be the opening day starter for the miami dolphins against brett favre and the ny jets. this is going to be a move to replace mccown, with him being released and beck serving in the #2 role.

[hordman]

didn't the Miami braintrust have a similar move when Ray Lucas came down here???

this would be very bad move on the part of the Phins and start to slightly erode or chip away at my confidence in the new regime down here.

I don't want any F*CKIN jets on my team!!!!!!!!!

Parcels making a play for Pennington

With Brett Favre now a New York Jet, Chad Pennington is now available to the man who drafted him in 2000. Bill Parcells and the Dolphins haven't wasted any time reaching out to Pennington's agent, Tom Condon, an NFL source said.

Given the Dolphins situation at quarterback during training camp, Pennington could land in South Florida. Veteran Josh McCown has looked shaky, including a three-interception day on Tuesday, while second-year pro John Beck has leveled out a bit this week following a rough opening week of camp. Rookie Chad Henne, who turned 23 last month, has been the best of the three for the past week.

But Parcells is known to prefer veteran quarterbacks, other than his first season in New England when he went with 23-year-old Drew Bledsoe, who was the No. 1 draft pick in 1993.

Pennington has a history of shoulder problems and a reputation for a weak arm by NFL standards. But he also is very accurate, a good leader and knowledgeable. Among NFL quarterbacks with at least 1,500 pass attempts, Pennington's 65.6 career completion percentage ranks best all-time. He also led the Jets to the playoffs three times and won the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award in 2006

Pennington comes in for a year to show Henne the ropes. I suppose I could be cool with that. It would be better than him learning from McKown.

I understand that we are a power run team now...in fact I like the fact that we can punch the opposing team in the mouth...but the fact still remains that when we do pass, I would like it to be a play action bomb (something Chad cannot do)...versus a little 5-10 yd out (something chad CAN do)...sure he is a veteran and could probably manage the game pretty good but seriously...I would rather have a rookie start for us who has a gun for an arm, 4 years experience as a starter in college, and a ton of upside instead of a washed up, noodle armed, injury prone, EX JET (worst part) to start as QB...Parcells better know what the hell he's doing because I seriously do not agree with this one.
