Somedude Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 (edited) I never want to see Henry hit 2000. RB are rarely the same after that and those teams rarely do much otherwise. I would like to see him win the rushing title this year but not if it means missing the playoffs. Edited December 2, 2019 by Somedude Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcibiades Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 Have to sign Henry. He's basically gotten us half our wins by himself. Now that he has a real QB to threaten defenses, he's just about unstoppable. He's easily our best offensive weapon. Can't lose him right now.

I always thought he'd just get some modest starter contract but now that teams see what he can do behind a QB that can play a little I think his market will be stronger than I perviously thought.

BudsOilers Posted December 2, 2019 Report Share Posted December 2, 2019 I think the 2nd contract goes beyond Henry though. A lot of teams are just not going to pay 13 M or so for a RB no matter how good they are given the track record. I also think his value to a team like the Titans is greater though so we'll see. The risk is that it costs you somebody else down the line. Mythos27, Number9, VanCityTitan, and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've put ourselves in a tough spot regarding Henry though. We should've had his heir apparent on the roster already if we were gonna let him walk.

I will say Lewis has actually looked better running/receiving since the QB change though albeit he's a role player RB. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm torn between taking a second look at Lewis (since I'm sure Mariota flopping hurt his game as well) and drafting a young chance of pace type guy who might have some starter upside somewhere in the middle rounds. I'm leaning towards drafting a guy just because cutting Lewis would save us money and with few glaring holes on the team this might be the right year to burn a mid-round pick on a back to spell Henry and provide injury insurance.

(The rankings might alter slightly once all of the games have been played. cook and Carson play tonight. ) 1. Chubb- 1,175-CIN(32nd) 2. McCaffery-1,167-@ATL (17th) 3. Henry- 1,140-@OAK (12th) 4. Jacobs- 1,061-TEN(11th) 5. Cook-1,046-DET(23rd) 6. Fournette-990 -LAC (18th) 7. Elliott-990 -CHI(8th) 8. Jackson-977-BUF (15th) 9. Carson-879 -@LAR (14th) 10. Mack- 862 -@TB (2nd) Henry plays the Second strongest rush defense out of the guys in the top 5. Also if Henry manages to rush for 145+ next week, he will be the first player in NFL history to do so in 4 straight games. Cook left the game early last night with an injury so he only had 29 yards. The top 10 remains the same as it was Sunday night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyitsmeallen Posted December 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 BTW Henry’s 149 yards in week 13 Led the NFL. As well as his 159 in week 12, and his 188 in week 10. 3 straight games he has led the league in rushing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariota could put together a decent enough game with Henry to win. Take Henry out of the equation our offense drops off a cliff. Watch this analysis. Amazing how many yards Henry gets by himself. I don’t believe this at all. cenj, Mythos27, and OILERMAN 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 We have to resign Henry. Hes so different compared to other players. Hes also the focal point of the offense.Theres no other RB thats 6'3" 250 lbs that is also fast. Its just not because of the yards he gets its how he gets them. He gets better as the game goes on and he can take one to the house at any moment. All the great RBs are worth a second contract and Henry may be a potential hall of fame player when its all said and done. IsntLifeFunny 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry is that dude and in a lot of ways he is the offense but without a threat at QB, team would just over commit and shut Henry down. Really though, we're fucked if either of them go down.

nine Posted December 3, 2019 Report Share Posted December 3, 2019 Like every other Titans fan, I’m pulling hard for Henry to maintain his current momentum for the rest of the season and throughout the playoffs. But at the same time....If Henry wins the rushing title this year, you can forget any hope of keeping him for $11M/year. He would have every right to demand an Elliot/Gurley type contract... which is probably more than JRob is willing to spend . So the team would either tag him or let him walk... neither of which is an attractive option . Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
