Titans learned a lesson yesterday. Henry is vital to the Titans offense.

[Number9]

Derrick Henry had 119yds.  The most important player, our bread and butter wasn't the feature of the offense.  What works works and what doesn't, well you lose a game you could have easily won.  Henry isn't just an ordinary player.  He is Da King of all RBs.  Here we come trying to throw the ball.  When you have a player like him, you use him to get you the W.  

 

People came to see him play.  People turned their TV's on to see him run all over the Saints(God forgive me, but they ain't real Saints) and we come home with a W.  But no, we got a new wrinkle.  We going to throw the ball on confusing downs.  We were the only one confused.  Forget trying to confuse the other team.  We Run It.  Okay, stop that.  You use Henry to set up easy passes for the QB.  Yesterday, they tried to do it assbackards and we lost.

Derek Carr's New Orleans debut is a success as the Saints edge the Titans 16-15

 

New Orleans limited star running back Derrick Henry to 63 yards rushing.

 

The didn't limit him, we refused to use him.

If Tannehill hits two easy passes it would have been a big success, even with the INTs.

 

Henry isn't vital.

Just before the season, one of the fanboys was suggesting the team would be better off without Henry….lmaooo

It is amazing!

 

Now one day the big man in going to quit being able to do what he does, but there are idiots who do not understand this is his team.  He's the show.  Now we know football isn't a one man show.  But if you have the most feared runner of the decade-you get him the ball.  Don't go trying to replace the engine with what?  Hopkins?  I love DHop, but we all know why he came here.

Not even DHop, he was thinking Julius Chesnut would be just as good…..lmaooooooo

Trade Tanny to the Jets.  Rogers is done with Achilles tear.  We just need a bag of chips in return.

People say good Runningbacks are a dime a dozen. No they are not. That's basically disrespecting guys like Jim Brown, Walter Payton, Earl Campbell, Emmit Smith, Barry Sanders. Just like I say not every QB can be Joe Montana or Dan Marino, I say not every back can be Emmit or Barry...Not every back will be Henry or Barkley. There has always been those special Runningbacks and middle of the road backs. Just like you have special QBs and middle of the road QBs. Growing up some teams the Runningback was the face of the offense/Franchise, not QB. Barry, Walter, Earl. That was back when I feel men had more common sense & logic.

Henry is the face of the Titans.  It's always QB&team vs Derrick Henry and the Tennessee Titans.  Everyone knows this except some Titans fans.  They are so silly.  We have a NFL football great playing for us and people want to trade him.  LMAO!!

 

This is Derrick Henry's team.

Only because the quarterback is a liability. 

 

The Titans are a good qb away from being a super bowl favorite 

[Number9]

I'm not Tanny hater, he is what he is.  Just like Dillard is what he is.  It's not a one man show, but if you lack sense enough to feature your best player?  That's on you.

So what you mean is if they used Henry and he missed two easy wide open holes to run....wait, Da King would run through them for big gains.

No I mean what I said - with Henry's usage as it was, they were two routine pass misses away from a very successful offensive day.

 

Of course they could have won in any number of other ways too, but there was an obvious path to victory that doesn't require rewriting much.

Yeah but he wasn’t making routine passes, which is why they should have run the ball more? Because running more likely leads to victory?
