    He’s never been a power back. He’s a big dude that runs like chris Johnson. The end.

    Except he takes way too long to get his feet moving in the backfield.


    Anyone acting like he should take any of Murray’s snaps doesn’t understand the position.

    I want him to be the lead back because Murrays at 60%, you see the only long run of the game, the hole was huge and murray looked slow as ****. I bet you if you gave Murray a 10 yard cushion Danny Shelton would catch him. I dont see him getting 100% after the bye either he needs to get healthy.

    Love the King but I wish he would run more like Eddie George did. I remember so great trucks by EG

    RB isnt all about being a superior athlete, it has more to do with knowing where to go with the ball. Outside of one play yesterday Henry's speed got him nothing. I would much rather see Henry hit the right holes than try to outrun the linemen to the edge and stiff arm a DB.

    Henry was not impressive this game. However, there was a play that could have been pretty big and Decker forgot he was supposed to block someone.

    It also seems like the O-line forgets its a run block play sometimes since Henry gets tackled 3-4 yards behind LOS too often. Can't tell if it's the O-line or the ****** play design. I'm leaning more towards ****** play design.

    a lot of times it was play design. henry isn't going anywhere if the dude is at his feet as soon as he's receiving the ball

    He also takes too long to get moving. It's ok when he has huge holes (late in some games or what he saw at Alabama), but it's generally not going to work.

    And yeah- Murray was running like he was hurt on that one run.

    Henry is not ready to be the primary. Too many mental lapses and hands are not good catching out of the backfield. Also, he's not good at cutting and finding holes in the line. I wish we got a guy like Dalvin Cook or Kareem Hunt

    henry doesn't need huge holes. he just needs to be able to get a couple of steps. the problem yesterday was that Williams knew this and run blitzed the hell out of us. robiskie wasn't smart enough to make the correct adjustments.
