Those are just facts. According to what you are saying, he is the worst record setting QB in the history of the game. Also, although he's a 1st year starter, Andrew Maxwell is a Redshirt JR, and MSU has one one of the best D&Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-23668080350907904962012-11-16T15:00:52.313-05:002012-11-16T15:00:52.313-05:00Chad Henne, Mike Heart and the boys were 0-4 again...Chad Henne, Mike Heart and the boys were 0-4 against O.S.U., but that rarely gets brought up. To blame the losses to M.S.U. and O.S.U. on him over the past few years is crazy. There were 22 other guys on the field during those games, not just him. Did he struggle in some of those games? No doubt about it, was it all his fault, no way.

He beat a down-and-out Ohio State team last year, and he barely got by a MSU team with a freshman quarterback this year. The two quality teams he faced as a senior quarterback this year - Alabama and Notre Dame - he looked miserable. He will never throw a pass in the NFL and you know it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29764383.post-45250025466614413872012-11-16T09:55:03.776-05:002012-11-16T09:55:03.776-05:00I could not agree more.

It's not like the guy can't throw, you just need to play to his strengths, which the current O.C. has failed to do. He is not a drop back passer, he thrives when you spread the field out, utilizing zone read run plays, screens, slants and quick reads.
