Henne is looking like a great backup during fantasy playoffs......

Week 14: @ Jacksonville

Week 15: @ Tennessee

Week 16: Houston

 

All 3 of those teams have proven that they can be torched at the passing game.

 

Just picked up Henne in 1 league to back up Rivers.

 

Just picked him up in another league to back up Ryan.

 

I don't really intend on rotating him into the lineup, but just in case there's injury concerns with my studs, it's nice to know that his playoff schedule is 100% favorable!!!

Wildcat offense = QBBC...

 

Seems to me you got just as much chance as Brown or Williams throwing a TD as you do Henne...

Wow...

 

The Wildcat was employed on 15 of Miami's offensive snaps vs NYJ. I recall two Brown pass attempts.

MIA ran 64 total plays.

Henne attempted 26 passes.

 

The Wildcat is not a passing formation. Passing out of the Wildcat is a gadget, not a game plan. The Wildcat just makes MIA a run heavy team, not a QBBC. Also, any "**BC" where there's a 13:1 split is not a committee.

 

Henne has value, almost any week as a FF backup, if he can manage the type of efficiency he showed versus a pretty good NYJ defense despite the run heavy offense. It's not just the 9.3 YPA, 240/2. It's that Henne, unlike Pennington, can make every throw on the field while maintaining a high level of efficiency.

 

And another thing re: this Miami offense... depending on the format, Pennington was a top 10 to 15 QB last year.

anyone have further thoughts on him after the average game against the saints?

 

i am not sure he's in the top 20 for fantasy football purposes. there are plays in the red zone where he's not on the field - pat white is. they love to run the ball. i really think he's got a low upside fantasywise this year. i picked him up in my keeper league but i think i'm going to drop him for alex smith.

I just dropped him for Alex Smith in 2 of my leagues. In a dynasty league, I'm thinking Henne will be solid. Alex Smith has a nice matchup with Detroit in week 16. That's enough for me to horde him as a backup.

Henne's receivers are looking more pitiful than Henne, especially Ginn. I think for that reason alone, I've been on the lookout for better options... including A. Smith.
