You couldn't trust either to start and win a game vs a decent QB, so if we're in that situation, we're cooked either way.

Buchele has more upside, and I wouldn't have trusted Buchele to make those plays 2 years ago, I'd probably have more faith in him on a purely athletic standpoint to do it from this point on, because Henne is literally at the point where he's hit that "wall"; he looks like he's stuck in molasses, so he can't evade rushers and is a liability to turn the ball over and/or get hurt when he does inevitably get lit the **** up, and then on top of that, he can't throw for shit any more.
He was throwing air balls with the 1s, and the balls were haaaaaaaanging in the air...he has to put all that air under the ball to even get any depth on his throws, and the result is off-target throws that have zero chance of being timed correctly with his intended receiver. It's amazing he didn't get one picked tonight.
Someone gif up one of those hanging air balls from tonight.
He'a ****ing awful.
