[punch it in]

Thing is with Heineke his situation is weird. Nobody ever heard of him until he came in end of last year. He looked real good. Went through the next offseason as the presumed backup and boom - once again thrown in the fire. After 9 starts he is playing well again.

The ONLY knock on him after the playoff game last year was durability. I kept saying he was being bought in cold and it was contributing to his injuries. Now that he is in rythm/ game shape/ better understanding of the offense durability hasn’t even been uttered once.

If this was a true rookie we would be absolutely ecstatic right now. For all intensive purposes he is one, only he is more mature. You never hear about anything negative with this guy as far as work ethic, or off the field nonsense. If he plays at this level for the rest of the year and stays healthy I see no need to crown him King of the backups. Wouldn’t even be interested in reaching for a quarterback. Take one late if you see promise than draft him …as a backup with potential for starting down the road. But right now Im extremely comfortable with TH.
