Are you stating this was a steller performance?

He had 1 good drive that was aided by a long pass interference penalty in garbage time of a garbage game.  This proves exactly what?

Neither one of them is starter quality.

Based on what, your magical any/a stat?  Unfortunately your any/a stat is meaningless when it comes to wins and losses.  Henne was 7-7 in games this year where he took the majority of the snaps and is 14-14 lifetime.  Thigpen was 0-2 this year and has I believe 1 career win to his credit when he has taken the majority of snaps in a game.  Yeah, most of those starts were for KC when they weren't very good, but it's not like Miami has been some powerhouse while Henne has been playing.  Thigpen has been given plenty of opportunities to produce and hasn't fared any better than Henne.  Most anyone who pays no attention to any/a and judges more based on his production on the field can see that.  Ultimately you are judged on wins and losses and how you play coming off the bench in 38-7 blowouts are meaningless to most people. 

But it doesn't surprise me that you are trying to make it into something as your agenda has been very clear all year long.  That doesn't make you right, just consistent.

any/a is production on the field. Miami was coming off a 11-5 season and henne brought them down to an under .500 level.

A first place schedule, poor play and poor coaching brought them down.  No one did it single handedly.

Stop. By the time Thigpen got in the game New England had the game won and was playing their 2nd team.
