I sure hope Derrick Henry is a beast this year

I don't see Henry just falling flat on his face any time soon. He's such a freak athlete. Even at half the RB he is now, he'd be a great #2. I hope the Titans recognize what he's given to the team and keep him around for how ever long it makes sense.

 

I'm not sure if he's any good or not...but the 2 catches I remember him making he just laid out on the ground for no reason short of the first. Lol

 

yup, this "running back shelf life" has been based off of running backs who are a little bit taller than dree brees, and weigh about Marcus Mariota weight (220)

plus I haven't read anywhere where derrick refuses to eat meat, and replaces it with instead dried asparagus bacon... (shot at Derrick Morgan --- whom took the vegan path, and was ALWAYSSSS injured)

 

Think Henry will have a similar career to AP. Abnormal human that has the desire! He embodies that imo. Wants to be the best. Rare to have the ability and desire- he does. The foot concerned me greatly, as I have had work done on mine- not great return by any means, but he is looking better, although a bit off, but his level is so high to begin with.

 

I think that foot is just something odd that happened....

What would be worry some would be a knee/thigh injury -- but a random bone in the foot? Odds are low it could be re-aggravated.

If we were talking muscle, I could see it... but a tarsal?

 

Yeah, that metatarsal broke for a reason. I X-ray ankles all the time, and the base of the fifth must be imaged for a reason. Common fracture and ligament attachment. I have personally witnessed hundreds of similar repairs over my years, never have I seen a plate added. @Riverman suggested a faster return for last season, and I agree. Obviously using different foot support in his footwear now.

 

Almost our whole defense was vegan including Casey at one point if I remember correctly.

*Edit* 15 titans I guess? including Casey

AP only really had one good season after 28. Kept going forever but was never that impressive

 

Frank Gore had good longevity for a RB also.

 

Another good comparison.
