Quarterback Rank: #20
Overall: #91
It is kind of strange if you think about it, but Pennington took home his second comeback player of the year award in three years. But Pennington had a great season, his first with the Dolphins. He was picked off just seven times and accounted for 20 total touchdowns. He threw for 200-plus yards in 11 of 16 games. And his yardage total (3,653 yards) was the highest of his career. Pennington is a very accurate passer (66 percent for his career), but doesn't have very good arm strength at all. He reads defenses well and fits the ball in tight spaces as well as any quarterback in the league. He'll continue to start for the Dolphins, an up and coming offensive team.

Pennington surprised just about everyone with his play last season. That won't be the case in '09. He has good value as a top No. 2 for fantasy teams. He can be a solid spot starter, posting consistent numbers. Pennington will have the occasional huge game, which is another plus. Another season with 3,500 or so yards and around 20 touchdowns seems about right. Remember, Pennington is just 33-years old. |

| Armando Salguero, of the Miami Herald, reports Miami Dolphins QB Chad Pennington (shoulder) said Tuesday, Nov. 17, he has completed the first phase of his rehabilitation from season-ending shoulder surgery and now must map out a recovery program for the next six weeks. At this stage, Pennington said, he's not certain if he will play again. He might not make that decision until March. However, regardless of what that decision is, the chances of Pennington playing for the Dolphins again are quite slim. The team has a starting quarterback in QB Chad Henne. They have committed time and resources on making backup QB Pat White a success. They also have QB Tyler Thigpen under contract. |
