Sean Peyton is a shitty coach and don't give carries. Henry shares carries with DeMarco Murray who was given a large contract. Lacy has one of the worst OLs in football. Seattle's 2nd best OL and Starting LT is out for the year.


Smells like bullshite excuses.

Vs FBS Winning Record Teams




How about.. vs Conference:
Fournette 2015: 8 games, 193 att, 1114 yards (5.77 ypc) 12 TD
Henry 2015: 9 games, 286 carries, 1623 yards (5.67 ypc) 14 TD

Vs Power-5:
Fournette 2015: 10 games, 248 att, 1570 yards (6.33 ypc) 18 TD
Henry 2015: 12 games, 355 att, 2003 yards (5.64 ypc) 22 TD

Fournette was held under 100 yards 2 times in 2015. Henry was held to under 100 yards 5 times in 2015.. and 4.22 ypc in the 3 games post-season games he played in during the post season.

Henry was big, fast, and durable.. and drafted in the mid 2nd round. Fournette is on a different planet talent wise.. and was drafted #4 overall because of it.

I don't disagree with that. Fournette has a skillset that is not quite once in a generational but it's certainly once in 5-10 year periodish (since AP, I'd say). He's a great player.

Henry was a perfect fit and a workhorse.. and frick him for his 210 yard game vs LSU

Even if we were to accept this bullshite as fact, isn't it that much more embarrassing that Saban has been able to dominate the SEC with backs that fail to live up to expectations in the NFL, all while other programs with elite backs that go on to have success in the NFL struggle to run on Bama? Seriously... if anything this is an indictment on the run defense in the SECw teams & Tennessee who Bama plays every year if these so called subpar running back "busts" are able to continually have success year after year against you.
