    Henry has been good but Murray should still be getting the bulk. he's been killing it.

    That's great that he is showing success early, but Murray is doing well. He's only going to be a here a year or two. Let Henry split this first year, maybe even only the first few weeks, before he's the top back in Tennessee. He'll get his chances.

    It looks like they're slowly increasing his workload and I think that's a perfect way to get him acclimated to the NFL and the speed of the game. The first week he had 6 touches I believe and last week he had 10. That's a great way to let him learn the tendencies of defenses, learn from a veteran like Murray, and gain knowledge of the offensive schemes and protections. We all would like to see him play more but I do like the way he is slowly being brought into the offense. After last year it's pretty amazing that we have the luxury to do that...many teams don't.

    He needs to be starting. Murray is playing alright, but he goes down with arm tackles every time. Henry has run through them consistently.

    I'm not seeing it. Outside that big run that was all blocking and should have been a TD, he had a sub par game.

    Henry has been consistently hit or grabbed at the LOS, and has consistently been running for 5 yards anyway.

    you mean like his 3 yards on 5 carries game 1?
    you're delusional if you think he should be above murray

    Two different styles. I like the changeup Henry brings. Murray is really helping catching stuff out of the backfield. He's more a slice and dice where Henry runs through people or pushes the pile. You look up and Henry has what appears to be an average run and all of a sudden it's 2nd and 5 or 6.
