Rashan Evans is for real... Did the OL show up for once? Can Henry be a zone runner? Is this how the run game should be?

The sequence of events last night from Evans goal line stand to DHen's 99 yarder was eerily similar to the sequence in the AFCC game in 99 against the Jags. Josh Evans sacked Brunell in the endzone for the safety and then Mason returned the ensuing punt for the touchdown and changes the trajectory of the game.

 

Rashaan Evans tackles Fournette on 4th down to give us the ball back and DHen races for 99 on the very next (right?) play, changing the trajectory of the game.

 

Obviously not identical situations (Josh Evans went to the university of alabama at birmingham), but close enough and the importance of both plays was big.

I’m sorry, but reading the thread title, all I could think of was “NEXT TIME, ON DRAGON BALL Z!”

Henry has been running better than Lewis for weeks. I really don't see how anyone else doesn't see that. Lewis doesn't run with enough conviction. Early in the game, he had a screen that was almost an

They need to give Henry 20 carries a game to finish the year

Yup, he was a good find.

Leon Jacobs, Rookie.

6'1" 246lbs and 4.48 speed.

That's impressive AF!

If they fix his tackling technique he's gonna be the terror of the AFCS

The big deal to me is that it shows up on the field.  With Telvin Smith, Jack, and this guy -- teams won't beat them on speed, that's for sure.

Why is he even running then?

He's doing that thing where players escort the runner into the end zone. Britt used to do it with CJ all the time. I bet there isn't even anybody in front of Kline. He thought they were home free. People who comment on football often forget that the game looks much different on the field.

It’s not so much the lineman who caught him as it was the fat bastard next to him running stride for stride. The guy is slow. 

Lewis was gaining fast and Kline thought he had it. Probably never saw the defender.

 

I've been joking on that play too but honestly I don't really blame any of them.

Jacksonville always finds guys like this.  The problem is that they usually are of low character and kill the team with lack of discipline.

Like every RB, Henry needs a hole unless he can bounce it outside, which he does very well. He does go down easily at times, but he often slices through a D after contact on his way down. 

 

Lewis is too shifty for his own good. He often has plays like he could juke one time, put his foot in the ground and take off. But he often jukes himself right into a defender. And he did look slow as hell on that one play last night. 

 

Just give Henry a little running room and he does special things.

That play by Lewis had to be the most pissed off I’ve ever been after a 30-yard gain.   Lewis had the angle and had the guy beat for a TD...until he freaking slowed down to stutter-step and juke the guy.

 

AAARRRGH!!!

Just watched it again and you're completely right lol. We should have had 3 pass TD
