Derrick Henry Thread - Is he still King Henry post injury?

[grooner]

The Colts did.

Haha, they already lost once he gained the first down yardage, didn't need to take it the extra 60!

[DJB]

I lost the 7.5 cover .

[JoshGordonsDealer]

A friend of mine lost on it. Not for the run though, but for the Succup extra point.

I'd take Henry's line from today anytime. Sign me up...

If you watched the game, I don't think you'd have been a very happy owner up until the very last play

I did not get to watch, but you can't ignore Henry's last run any more than Founette's first one. Also, I was using Henry's last game as an example of his potential if and when he becomes lead dog (in the context of Henry being a case of Ben Tate syndrome). If he gets the rock often enough he can rip off runs like that, so u can't just discount that run.

Oh god, that's even worse!

That would make me physically ill

That is quite bad. A friend of mine lost on the QB taking a knee twice in victory formation a couple years ago in one of my leagues. That was the 1st time I had seen something like that.

I’m trying to get Henry no matter what

You better not come to the table with anything less than OBJ and an early 1st!

I ended up losing on a tie breaker in our championship game because Marshawn Lynch lost 3 yards on his final carry of a game with me up by 0.3 We use decimal scoring and it is the only game in the 10 year history of the league that ever ended in a tie.

My goodness. I would’ve retired after that.

Had a league mate lose a couple weeks ago on that final lateral, turnover, TD play in the KC/Was game. It was Chris Thompson being credited with the fumble that did it though. A lead of .45 turned into a loss of .55.

[jetsfan5757]

I didn't see the game. Box score looked great but I read some comments saying he didn't look as good as his box score.

What do people think of his outlook in 2018 and beyond? I have him. I'm holding until I see what he can do with the #1 role personally...

[Pac_Eddy]

I think you've got to hold at least until we see if Demarco Murray is back next season. If he's not, Henry's value is bumped up. That's when you take offers.

As for tonite, he looked like his normal self. Killed it when he got good blocking or open space to pick up speed. Got bottled up easily when the blocking wasn't there. He doesn't create that much.

[nathanq42]

Looked good on a few runs that were big plays, but he got bottled up when there isn't a good sized hole, and when he doesn't have a good head of steam he plays smaller than his size imo

This. He needs 3 yards to get going. But when he does his momentum will take him 5-6. I would t be surprised if he had more than average negative or 1-yard plays, less than average 2-4 yard plays, and more than average 5+ yard plays. It is boom or bust, not a lot in between.
