    Chris Henry

    Ok someone has to say it and I am sure that most of you feel this way. Lendale White is a power runner that is good for 2-3 yards at a time. For all of you that compare Lendale to Eddie you are right. He is just like Eddie the last 2 years that he was a Titan. Eddie managed to get 2-3 yards a carry also. With that being said... I understand that Chris Henry may not be ready and may not know how to hit the gaps just yet, but we as a Team need his speed. I'm not saying make him the starter, but I am saying that a 2nd round pick (worth it or not) has to be on the field or at least not the inactive list..... ITS TIME TO GIVE HIM A CHANCE... We have seen what Lendale has.... What is the worse that can happen? He gets 2-3 yards a carrie like Lendale!!!!

    guessing there's a reason he's not playing and it's probably because he's not ready

    I saw him in the preseason, and he did what Lendale did. He ran into the line and fell down.

    One difference is Henry can break some of those runs to the outside and get some yards with his speed. That's not saying he'll surely be a better rb than LW....but we can't get much worse.

    I say give Henry some plays, same for CB (if he's healthy).

    Henry isn't active more b/c we already have Brown and White and fisher can't justifiy activating 3 backs unless 1 of them plays special teams. It seems that our best bet of getting Henry active so he can get a couple carries would be if Brown's ankle makes him miss some time. I'm hoping they'll use it as an excuse to keep Henry active next week. We really need to add some explosion to the offense imo. White runs hard. He falls forward after contact but since he has no speed, poor acceleration and no explosion... that contact occurs a lot sooner than it does w/ most other backs. Imo we need to add some speed to the offense and Henry is the best bet.

    well there's an easy solution to that, make LenUseless inactive.

    Well if Chris Brown is indeed injured, we may see Chris Henry yet.

    You don't know that because you haven't seen that. He was given a chance and did about as bad as you could do.

    Three weeks ago people were humping out running game and now they're asking for someone who has been in street clothes most of the season. haha
