Is this like the thread that the one LSU fan starts weekly that says "I'm really worried about so and so team. They are on the rise and I can see them giving us fits"? The reverse jinx attempt?

Fox Molder- well Henry does look like an alien

All I know about Fox is that he hates Goodell so he's alright with me.

This is VERY false.

This is certainly true.
quote:
He's every bit as awesome as Fournette
This isn't even remotely true.
Can you remember who was the featured running back for the Detroit Lions in the 1990's? Sure, everyone knows it was Barry Sanders. Do you remember who was the featured back for the New Orleans Saints? Not so much, huh?
The former was like Leonard Fournette, while the latter was like Henry. Great > Good, in case you didn't know.

Henry also has 400 less yards in one more game played.

Letting that one sink to bottom? Looking for the big catch?

In his last head to head matchup vs a top tier running back, Henry was outgained by 135 yards by Ezikiel Elliot. Hopefully for Alabama, their defensive line will perform better and allow Henry to increase his touches and production.

Nick Cubb isn't a top tier running back?
Posted on 11/3/15 at 1:00 pm to Patton
Totally forgot about him. Chubb gained 2 less yards than Henry on 6 fewer carries. Pretty impressive, considering Bama's O line play this year.

Also what kind of point is there to prove by going over Henry's stats when his defense is playing a good running back? How does that effect his game?

Just an observation. Ohio State's offense was completely destroying Alabama's D, so they were forced to play from behind, thus hindering Henry's rushing attempts.

Nah

Their O was playing very well. We couldn't stop them on 3rd down for sure. I wouldn't call it completely destroying but to each their own. I think Kiffs play calling had more to do with Henry's effectiveness in that game than the D.

With Ragland out for about 100 of his yards but ok

LOL at the Tulane fan living vicariously through the hopes of Alabama.
Henry is a very good back. He's not winning the Heisman. He's not at that level. And, he's not the best back that Bama has had even in the last 5 years.
