Going into next season am I a lot less comfortable with our rb situation compared with the past 6/7 years.
I agree.
BUT, I genuinely believe that Scarbrough is a special talent, and might end up being the starter by season's end.

This thread is full of over-exaggerations which are mainly due to ignoring the facts.
I still can't believe the same people who get mad LSU fans bash Ingram are heavily critical of Henry when he suffers from the same thing Ingram does.
The truth is Henry is a really good RB. Is he perfect? No. He is weaker between the tackles if he doesn't get good blocking. We have struggled running blocking this season so it has affected his ability to get penetration in the middle and leads to him panicking (when we do have a slight hole) and bouncing outside; which is his strength.
These RBs (Yeldon, Henry) don't even get enough carries to really get themselves going most games. While Gurley, Chubb, Amir and M.Gordon are getting 20+, these guys usually are well under that.
My main point? Some perspective is needed instead of the usual over the top reaction to everything.
Remember the over the top reaction to the Ole Miss loss on here? Remember the "Ole Miss won't lose two!" and the "We suck and will lose 3, 4 or 5", etc, etc???
How much of that was true? I'll tell you, the exact amount of the stuff I've read in here.
