Popular Post tgo Posted December 19, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) Great read. “I said to him: You now have to run as if your career depends on it, because it does,” George told Henry. “The rumors of them trying to trade you, that says that they are looking elsewhere. And that’s why the bulk of the carries were going to Dion Lewis. And I said: Your career depends on this, so you have to run hard every single play, whether it is one carry, or 25 carries. You have to run like it is your last carry, because it might be. And from that point on, it seems like he’s been more determined. My God, this guy has taken off.” George gave Henry a specific example from the team’s game against the Chargers in London, which George attended. It was a second quarter play, an off tackle play to the left, when George felt Henry turned contact down against a Chargers defender, despite having a big size advantage. From one big back to the other, George hammered Henry about it. “I’m like: There was an opportunity for you to square him up and run through him and impose your will on him, and one of a few things were going to happen. You were either going to run him over, or you were going to hurt him, or you were going to run through the tackle,” George said. “And that sets a tone when you do that, and it establishes who you are and what you are going to be about. I felt like there was an opportunity lost for you to do that.” Also - why don't we just hire Eddie George as RB coach?

That might actually be a really good move, and not just because he went to Ohio. He's always seemed like a coach. If he can get Henry to unlock his inner tractorcito then maybe he can help others.

Yeah or at least Assistant RBs coach if they want Tony Dews for scheme stuff and heavy lifting and whatever.

FRT Posted December 19, 2018 Report Share Posted December 19, 2018 Think this was said many times by many on this board. Funny how “run like your career depends on it because it does” got him going. Somebody wants to get paid. I wonder if Eddie would mind talking to another “back” on the team and light the same fire. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The two players have spent time together at various events, and when George has stopped by practices. Henry has visited George's house in Nashville on numerous occasions."
