HA! If he doesn't beat out Blaine Gabbart in camp then I think you need to come here and publicly admit you were wrong! lol lol
I will, gladly, as long as you reciprocate if he has a good season.  No excuses like "he played against crappy teams" or "Jones-Drew carried him all season"

Deal?

Yeah deal, but its a good season. Not a good game or two. Not a good month. A good SEASON. where he plays 14 or more games. The team is at .500 or better with him as a starter. He has more TD's than interceptions. QB rating and completion % is decent.

And if he doesn't start till mid or late-October because he loses the training camp battle to Gabbart then I already win right there.

Those are the terms I agree too..  Wink

So let's be clear: if Henne has exactly the season that Matt Moore had last year, wins, losses, stats and all, who would win?

For Henne, Moore's season would be a success by those terms.  I can't recall better for him.

then I would lose if Henne has the year Moore had last year. With one exception, if Henne doesn't see the field till mid-October then I win. I mean if you can't beat out Blaine Gabbert in training camp and Henne sits the first 4-6 games, I win right there off the bat.

If Henne only plays in like 9 games and those are a good 9 games, that's not a season. The deal is who has the better season. Which in my book is 13 or more games

Moore only started 12 games and only saw the field because of an injury to Henne.

Just clarifying the terms.  I'd say if you start the majority of games for a season (so, 9+) you were the starter for that season.

See, I really hate this lowballing term and I blame media hype.


If anyone got low-balled it was RT Eric Winston. EW was a $$ casualty from Houston and ranked in the top 10 at his position. He was making appx. 5 mil a year and according to sources, his wife wanted to live in Miami.  Miami came and left Miami without a contract. EW ended up signing in KC for 22 mil for 4 yrs. 

That my friend is low balling. Of course it isn't like they need a RT or anything.  Shocked

If you can't win the training camp battle and only play half the games, that isn't a successful season in my book.

And those are my terms  Grin

I understand your terms as listed below

-must play in 13 games minimum
-must have more TD's than INT's
-must have more wins than losses as a starter
-QB rating or at least 70
-completion % greater than 55%

To be clear, if he gets blind-sided by a DE and tears an ACL, its hardly Chad's fault, so your "games played" requirement seems like an easy-out clause for you.  So I would recommend modifying it to be "must start more than half the games for his team," thus making him the primary Jaguars' starter for the season.  Or perhaps a minimum of 300 pass attempts for the year.  Just to qualify as "enough playing time."

If he WINS the job out of camp and is having a career year with great stats and gets hurt then I will admit it. I mean if he gets hurt in week 2 or 3 and has a couple good games then no. But if he gets hurt in November then yeah, good enough. Not his fault.

I think this needs more than an admittance,it needs more for the spectators in the peanut gallery....It needs to be a "Poop" avatar,or Henne rules,Henne sucks Avatar might be more appropriate bet for all these stipulations to with the admittance...Maybe an I'm wrong about Henne under the avatar....

Just a thought...ignore me... Cheesy

Mike,

So basically as you define things, Drew Bledsoe not Tom Brady was the Patriots QB the year they won their first superbowl?
