    We also added Conklin, Ben Jones, and Rishard that year. Chicken and egg argument here. I'm going with the improved line and WRs made the bigger difference.

    Benny Snell probably isnt an option if Derrick Henry ends the year strong, but Rodney Anderson still would be a good pick up if he declares. Dion Lewis has shown he's only good for passing situations, still need another RB that can split with DH.

    Mariota is on pace to be sacked like 80 times... I think OL is a problem.

    They started the year pretty strong...then there was the Baltimore game and it's been terrible since.

    He will not be sacked that much. That b more game was a statistical anomaly

    We saw last night what a good RB can do for a bad line, Henry basically made all those yards on his own

    Henry has averaged over 4 YPC in 6 games this year. The only game that he averaged fewer than 3 was the Miami game where they jacked his TD . That's while getting hit at or behind the LOS 2nd most out of all RBs. He was top 10 in yards after contact before the game, I can't imagine where he is now.

    He hasn't impressed before now, but he clearly wasn't the problem. Just look at the other RB, who was averaging in the upper 4s in YPC prior to this season.

    I'm saying the same thing you are. I think we have an OL and WR issue, not RB.

    Just look at Pittsburgh. Top Oline and WRs, start Henry or Lewis on that team and they are top 5 in the league.

    No, we saw the OL played better and allowed the RB to actually get past the LOS. That was the difference.
