Mythos27 Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Just now, BlueThunder said: The real problem is twofold. RBs are a lost need. Look at the draft. WRs and CBs. Tit for tat. Nobody cares about RBs anymore, because it takes too much dedication to make them work, from blocking to scheming. Henry is a true, what you see is what you get type back. He has no wiggle, he won't juke anyone, but get him a crease and he can motor. Problem is that height has and will be his downfall, because backs now know to just go for his legs and stay away from those arms. And the fact we have to have a 3rd down back doesn't help. I appreciated Henry over the years, but seeing two backs off the street put up better numbers and had never played here at all pretty much said it all. There are more ways than one way to get running yards. Henry is replaceable. The league has seen years of him so nothing new to see here. We know how to play him. I disagree with so much of this I'm just gonna agree to disagree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if JRobbed believed Henry was going to bounce back he would have loaded on OL instead of WRs. We also brought in a passing specialist. I believe we are finally going to get away from the run and try to modernize our attack. You're of course entitled to your opinion. I just know that it would take so long to explain the ways in which I disagree with you that it would take more effort than I'm willing to give right now. Perhaps another day.

Because discussing the possibility Henry may be in the decline means everyone thinks he is.... No, I just know this will be a polarizing thread that will be fun to visit at the end of the season. Personally I’m going to wait until he has a full season of declining stats before I side with him being on the decline. Henry is notorious for being a second half of the season RB and he was hurt last season before the second half. It seems silly to me to declare he is done based off of last season. It was his first injury that landed him on IR. We have no reason to believe he won’t regain form based on how seriously he takes taking care of his body.

Jamalisms Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Time and touches are the great equalizer and injury seems to play into that (though did limit wear). Hopefully he comes back full strength and hopefully they learn not to run him 30 times a game. IsntLifeFunny, and oldschool 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJClown Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Our QB can only operate on P/A... Were obviously handicapped on the passing game so of course it be idiotic to go away from that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

One proceeds the other. Uncle stepped on an icy patch. His body declined to stay upright. Broken hip. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepingTitan Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 They tried to say Henry would regress after his 300 carry year. Next year he breaks 2k. japan, and oldschool 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsntLifeFunny Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 Asked it earlier: anyone want to take the time to see what this metric looked like his previous years in the first 8 weeks versus the last 8 weeks? I imagine it would be similar. Mythos27 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number9 Posted May 14, 2022 Report Share Posted May 14, 2022 6 hours ago, Jamalisms said: Time and touches are the great equalizer and injury seems to play into that (though did limit wear). Hopefully he comes back full strength and hopefully they learn not to run him 30 times a game. They have always felt Henry needed a certain number of carries to be effective. How would he do with less carries? Just thinking of the Seahawks game, they were real comfortable running him even though they were down 24-9. They ran him 13 times for 35yds first half. Tannehill had kept them in the game making great 3rd down conversions in the first half. Pretty much the recipe for throwing the ball to catch up. Not the Titans, Henry is who they counted on. Will they get away from Henry getting that magic number of carries, not matter what. If he's unable to perform great the first month or so, do they continue to wait for him to return to form. Or do they plan on the Willis pkgs, the new pass catchers and Haskins to convert 3rd downs? What if Henry has 31yds in the first half in 2022? Is it still business as usual?
