I sure hope Derrick Henry is a beast this year

agreed... right now the only thing keeping EG clearly #1 is longevity... but that is not a small thing.

the day DH22 hits 10k is the day he is the greatest Titans RB

 

28 carries
102 yards
2 TD

2 receptions
30 yards
0 TD

Season:
104 carries
408 yards
7 TD

10 receptions
121 yards
0 TD

 

He’s getting in the end zone and I love seeing %20 plus coming from passing. Good. Good. Good

 

You have got to think that the outside screen game is going to help open up the middle of the field for the TEs with LBers focusing more on getting to Henry outside to stop him before he gets moving down hill after the pass.

Fake the screen and hit Okonkwo coming across the middle in the opposite direction

 

What’s this fake and throw to a young rookie TE with the potential to be something in the NFL business.

You will hit Swaim, and you will like it.

 

on a 4 yard hook on third and 5

 

Better yet, hit Hooper who will just lay down on the field with no one around him inches from the first down.

 

EG had 8 season at 300+ carries to get to 10k. 2700 carries.

Add up Henry's 7 seasons he's at 1500 carries 7200 yards... He didn't have a 300 carry season until his 4th (and 5th) year. All together it's like he's played a little over 4 seasons at 300+ carries for 7200. He'd be well above Eddie by year 8 if he got the carries and was the back he has been or even close to it.

 

I really thought Hooper was an upgrade from last year which I thought would be just fine without Smith.

I was wrong twice.

 

I think it’s just a matter of time and how quickly he does it. The way he looks currently has me thinking his injury is now in the past and he’s ready for a few more dominant years.
Even after he eventually starts to wear down, he’s got the personality that I’d like to stay in Tennessee even as a second fiddle.
Let him stick around til he’s like 38 and slowly creeping passed 15k. He’s also racking up TD, currently tied with Earl for #2. I think he passes EG after the bye.
