    Any reason Henry is not getting the ball on a 3rd and 1? If we have a second or third and short, I am getting him the ball. Also, if we are inside the 5 yard line on 1st down, guess who is getting the ball on 4 straight carries if I am the coach. Just curious and wanting opinions.

    Because dude is soft and likes to bounce runs outside.

    DLewis is our best RB

    Hey Brad. Welcome to the board.

    If I remember correctly, he got hit pretty hard on the previous play and driven back. I believe it was second and three and I thought the refs were going to do a measurement which would have given Henry some time to catch his breath.

    Maybe Vrabel didn't want one because he knew the Cow D was gassed.

    I suspect Lewis is supposed to come in on third down automatically so did. I would have run the QB sneak there but I still think Lewis got a bad spot and the refs didn't go to the booth to review. If Vrabel, I'd been tempted to call a TO just so the refs could have reconsidered.

    He hit the hole pretty well last week and took all the easy yards

    I'll happily admit hes a bigger CJ. If CJ just fought for yards hed be on his way to the hall of fame. Henry is a tougher CJ, which is perfectly fine.

    Have you watched a single game? Henry gets stood up, upon initial contact, on 95% of his runs. He never keeps his feet churning and uses his upper body, when he should be using his lower body.

    Dion Lewis had a much higher chance at getting that first down, period.

    Thanks Jeff. I think I was a member in years past but lost connection somehow.

    Henry doesn't have many fans here. If he does something good, it's because the hole was a mile wide and the worst RB in the league could have made the same play. If the play is bad, it's because he sucks, not because of the blocking. Blocking is never the issue when Henry is the RB.
