He is so fun to watch. An RB forged from the molds of Eddie George and Earl Campbell.
Eddie George was a great power back but had nothing in the way of breakaway speed compared to Henry. After his first season, George's longest carry was 40 yards (yes some ended in TDs).
The only season Henry's longest carry was less than 40 yards was his first.

He's such a throwback player too, workhorse types just don't exist in the modern game.
I was too young for Bo, Barry, & Herschel, but Derrick Henry (and Adrian Peterson) is
the best I've ever seen

That 75 yard run was amazing. He had three DBs chasing him down and none of them touched him

He was underused his first two years at Alabama.

Kamara was there a year and never touched the ball. Henry is one of the best, but Bama had an embarrassment of riches at RB then.

Titans organization is completely fricking useless.
I was on their bandwagon in the last 90s/early 2000s, but I was looking for something to latch onto other than Alabama football during that time for obvious reasons.
But since 2008, frick 'em. I don't care. Glad Henry got somewhere that he can be utilized correctly.
