Derrick Henry is still an elite back.

It's basically saying Levis threw 4 TDs vs Atlanta because of Henry(who wasn't on the field for 3 of them).

Dude is inching closer and closer to ignore for me because he rarely has a clear point and then just doubles down on weird things like this. 
 

Why would anyone engage?

[No1TitansFan]

As best as I can figure, DH is currentlytied for 3rd with OJ in best 2 season rushing yards totals behind Barry Sanders and ED. OJ doing it in 14 games seasons was just killing it .

Henry helped Tannehill the same degree he's helping Lamar this season

 

You might be on to something. Lamar is having - by far - his best passing season ever.

[BudsOilers]

Henry can be a great RB but giving him credit for either Tannehill's play or Lamar's is retard level stuff.  It was asinine in 2019-2021 and it's retarded now.

 

A good % of Lamar's production is when Henry isn't even on the field.

Well that's because Lamar is the best player in the world.

 

But no doubt this is the most dangerous version of this era's Ravens

They just can’t take a joke. Tomato Can is okay. Saying Henry was the problem here last season was a joke. Saying we should have signed Tannehill through 2025 was a joke. 
 

If you can’t take a joke. Time to quit telling them. Rather have Tannehill over Lamar. LMAO!!  That’s a gut buster!

[LongTimeFan]

Obviously Teddy Bridgewater is better than Ryan Tannehill to be a backup on a team that could go to the Superbowl. 

 

Tannehill is still waiting for the right opportunity.

In yesterday's game, Henry surpassed O.J. Simpson and Corey Dillon for career rushing yards;   Henry's  11,285 career rushing yards ranks #20 on the list of the NFL's all-time leading rushers .   

 

With a 70+ yard game next week, Henry would surpass HOF RB John Riggins for #19 all time.     Henry and Riggins are currently tied for #7 all-time with 104 career rushing TDs....two TDs behind Jim Brown (106)  and 6 short of Walter Payton (110).

 

Another 1500+  yard / 15+ TD season next year would make Henry the NFL's #10 all-time rusher, surpassing Jim Brown (12,312 yds) and current #10 Tony Dorsett  (12,739 yds).     120 career TDs would tie Henry with Adrian Peterson for #4 all-time...and just three short of Marcus Allen (123) at #3 all time.

 

I'd say Emmitt Smith's records (18,355 yards+ 164 TDs) are probably safe.....but there's no longer any question about Henry ending up in Canton.   The only question is how many more years he has left before he finally decides to hang it up....and how many more of the NFL's all-time greatest runners he'll surpass along the way.

He will rightfully go down as one of the all time greats

Among active NFL RBs, Zeke Elliot is the nearest to Henry with 9100 career yards…roughly 2200 yards behind DH.  
 

There are a few excellent, highly productive RBs who are currently at 6000-7500 yards:  Joe Mixon, Saquon Barkley, Aaron Jones, Nick Chubb, Christian McCaffrey.  But considering where they are in their careers and their injury histories, it seems unlikely that their bodies will remain intact long enough to reach 10,000 yards, much less catch up to Henry.  

[titansfan]

It'll be between Saquon Barkley and remakeably Lamar Jackson as the next 10000 career rushers

One member of this duo is benefiting greatly from this marriage and it ain't Lamar. 

[Bongo59]

Henry is a HOF back doing HOF things when he should be declining.  He shows no evidence of stopping.  He will continue to chase and catch Emmitt.  Just watch.  After a few SB in Baltimore I bet he goes into the HOF as a Raven.

Goddamn Oman just take the L already lol. Henry has had an amazing season for any 30 year old RB. He's cemented his legacy and could now retire a HOF'er.
