Should we have played Henne the entire 2nd half?

If you have an untested rookie playing in that situation you end up with turnovers. You need an experienced hand who's not going to get carried away by "this is my moment" feelings, someone who can just unemotionally run the plays like he's done a hundred times before.

Henne's very first pass was almost intercepted. Probably should have been. The running game bailed him out.
