    Per Schefter. He's having an MRI this morning. Titans are done without him.

    Dude has something like 217 of the teams 230 rushes. Gotta spread the love in the running game. Just can't have one guy do it all.

    That would be a shame. The guy is a phenom.

    Not trying to be a LeBeau but, why not? Jim Brown, Payton, George, Emmit Smith, LaDanian Tomlinson….. all did pretty much all the running.

    They've put an enormous load on that guy and now he's broken. They have no one on the roster who has been involved running the ball otherwise.

    Total disaster for the Titans. That offence, passing attack included runs through the threat of Henry breaking a run to the house.

    He is almost certainly the most valuable non-QB offensive player in the league.

    Dammit.


    Love seeing him play. Just a freakish talent at that position the likes of which have not been seen in some time. Thankfully though, today's advancements in sports medicine and recovery have seen to it that athletes can get back to 100% as quickly as possible.... from the athletic aspect.




    The mental one though is of a different story. No doubt I believe Derrick Henry can reclaim his throne. How soon though is the question as that will be determined by how confident he will be heading into 2022.

    Steelers on pace to get Najee exactly 400 touches this season. He's trending higher lately, too, so look for him to top that.

    Brown never topped 351 touches. Emmitt, Walter, and LT were outliers freaks and first ballot HOF'ers. Eddie George never averaged over 3.4 YPC or topped 1165 yards following his 400 touch season. Most fall off.

    Who’s to say Najee isn’t a first ballot HOFer? It could happen.

    Could be, but those guys were all very high picks and game changers. Najee's a good back, he's not a generational back IMO. It was a down year for RBs, we took the best one out of need. I sure hope he's durable.

    The Titans will still win that weak division even without Henry.

    Probably You are correct, but it Definitely weakened them. They will have 2 play way differently now.

    I think dragging that Godzilla tail behind his head tore up one of his feet.

    They just waived Adrian Peterson. Anyone know why? Not sure what was the point of bringing him in for 3 weeks.

    Mine too! Dad was a Naval officer. Made us stand at attention whenever something happened. Then, the belt would come out!
