Hes too damn big to be that soft ......A guy tackled him by pulling his shoestring one time.

Seriously if he would run angry like Gurley (I know tough comparison) but imo he could run a lot harder and be dominant .

Come on, some of y'all are overreacting. If he has performed soft/poorly for more than one game I'd understand, but this was one game.

This one game has done great damage to the psyche of Bammers worldwide.

Our running backs have been a bit underwhelming since Lacy left. I'm not really sure how big a difference the offensive line makes in that assessment though. Richardson/Ingram/Lacy all unquestionably played behind better offensive lines. Henry has been solid so far, but he definitely hasn't lived up to the hype he had coming into the season. He doesn't get downhill as much as you'd expect someone of his size, and he doesn't seem to have much burst into the second level. Really sucks Drake is hurt and never got many carries before that. He seemed to be the best pure runner we had both in 2013 and this season.
