    Even if he's half of the RB he is now in 2 years, he'd still be able to stick around in the NFL. Lol

    One of my favorite narratives is that our oline is awful at run blocking. It's actually above average. Meanwhile henry has been below average as far as runs over expected goes. Henry is a titans legend but his best days are most certainly behind him

    It's actually pretty incredible Henry is still as productive as he is, shows the combination of blessed genetics and his work ethic. And that's with the lack of run blocking and other offensive threats, even just based off the eye test along with the numbers, Henry is still a top 3 back. Running backs usually start declining after leading the league in carries.

    Henry's days "appear" to be behind him...give him a better OL, WRs that scare defences and an OC that has a fricking clue... he will return to BeastMode

    I think people are giving up on Henry way too early. He simply doesn't have the support he needs.

    We have No balance; we have no passing threat. Opposing teams stack 8-9 in the box majority of the time, due to the predictability of our play calling. That being said, I think all that our Oline is AWEFUL PERIOD! We cannot effectively execute blocks.

    Watching Henry get hit behind the line of scrimmage time and time again doesn't scream above average run blocking to me.

    "Runs over expected". Is that one of those "4.3 yards running left in to a tail wind when the offense is pointed east with winds over 13.4mph and the left tackles shoe lace is untied" stats?

    Outside of Henry...there's nothing above average about this team period.

    And is still #2 and close to another 1500 yard season.

    I can do the research later, but the list of RB with 3 seasons above 1500 is pretty damn short. Without injury, he’s easily have 4 straight and possibly broken the 2K mark a second time.
