    Or at least says something about play predictability with Henry in the game.

    Yeah because Teams stack the box 45% of the time because of Henry lol. You guys are ridiculous. You don’t remember Dion Lewis running the rock? The obsession is strong.....9

    dion lewis' involvement is not really relevant in this stat...

    when the RB in on the play (Henry) doesn't catch passes in the backfield, the defense doesnt respect it, or need to.

    he does seem to have improved a bit. i wouldn't hesitate to toss it to him in the backfield this year.

    GB had fat ass Eddie Lacy in the backfield and teams weren't stacking the box. They only do so if they don't respect the QB. And they aren't going to respect a QB who throws 25 passes over 16 yards

    mariota was injured and not throwing deep last year, so yeah it makes sense they'd stack the box when the RB who doesnt catch passes is in, he's almost guaranteed to be running it every time.

    I don’t know why it’s ridiculous to think that defenses can guess when run plays are coming. Lewis or Henry we’re in the backfield and the QB was known to be hurt and/or Gabbert so it would make sense to stack the box more anyway.
    I’m suggesting that teams know we are primarily running and even down and distance becomes predictable, so teams were good at guessing.

    Not really sure what you were assuming I was obsessing over with that post anyway.

    Interesting stat no doubt....but, how often did he throw for scores...win games....etc. whole lot of average elsewhere. This stat is an example of why he can be so frustrating. He can be great in areas, but suck horribly where it counts.

    He had the highest sack rate, as well as the highest % of pressures which resulted in sacks in the league. You are being naive if you honestly say that he plays well under pressure .
