Nobody outside of the Bama fanbase would put Derrick Henry in this conversation. It's like how only Cowboys fans think Emmitt Smith is the best RB in NFL history. Yes, they're great players, but it's easy to rack up yards when you're running through gaping holes.

That's bullshite. Is that what Henry has done against NFL defenses? Run through 'gaping' holes? Henry has ran against stacked fronts his entire life. High school, college, NFL, and it hasn't mattered one bit. On all three levels he broke records and was/is the best back in the game.
