Henry is so underrated. The guy has yards and TDs a tick behind fournette. Saying he is as good as fournette doesn't mean fournette is not a generational talent, one of a kind.

Couldn't disagree more. His straightline speed is very deceptive and underrated but I think he runs too stiff and upright to be as good as Fournette in that category. It's not a fair standard though. His vision might be a little better but that's pretty damn hard to tell at least for an untrained eye like mine.

Dude has gained like 46% of his yardage after contact this year. He's a monster and his numbers would be damn near as good as Fournette's if they had switched teams.

It's a stupid, loaded statement to claim he's "as awesome as Fournette."

Henry is like Jeremy Hill. He looks like he is running way slower than the people chasing him but for some reason they can't catch him.
I wouldn't say he is as good as Fournette though. Fournette seperates himself from defenders quickly. He seems much faster this year than he was last year.

What is your definition of "tick"?

He's every bit as awesome as fournette
-his line opens holes big enough to drive a semi through.
-he is running in a straight line, forward.
-tacklers try to stop him high, with a bump, after he has gained momentum.
-he is in wide-open space and can make one (1) cut, which is his maximum ability.
I don't know a lot about his hands but with his running straight-ahead speed, he looks like he'd be a pretty good tight end/H-back.

Henry has nearly 300 yards less than Fournette on 4 more carriers. He's played the 4th quarter of every game as well, unlike Fournette. Henry is a fine back, but he isn't on Fournette's level. Dalvin Cook and Chubb are the only ones who even approach LF's level of greatness, but neither can stay healthy.

bullshite. LF'S worst rushing game is better than all but 1 of Henry's games.

fournette has better acceleration and is better at the second level (not by much) but henry has better vision.
No he doesn't. Henry doesn't do anything better than LF.
LF has better acceleration
LF has better top end speed
LF is more agile
LF has better vision.
Not one person that is paid to evaluate talent agrees with you.

bullshite. Henry isn't close to being as good as LF. Henry runs like a 200 lbs running back compared to LF.

While Henry has played 1 more game. Their season averages aren't close and neither is their talent

Maybe to Bama Nation, but not to the rest of the objective college football world.
