He wasn't doing this shyt behind that awful Cowboys line alongside Dak and being forced to play from behind every weekend. People need to let that shyt go. We've seen with Saquon this season how a bad football team can make an elite player look pedestrian.

Baltimore was simply the perfect team for him.
The Cowboys don't have a NFL caliber RB on their team currently :skip:

Even if Henry wouldn't be as effective for them as he has been for the Ravens, not signing him was complete idiocy. The corpses of Zeke, Dalvin Cook and Rico Dowdle isn't a professional team's RB room

He and AD could've have dominated the NFL as freshman. The only RBs I've said this about in my lifetime.

Looks like the Titans and the Cowboys were simply just stupid and sorry

We had no use for him anymore...in a good way. You see the product we're putting on the field right now? It was time let him go to stunt on these heaux and get a shot at winning some hardware.

We got to the playoffs a few times where he got a chance to shine but that shyt over for us right now.

Not to mention, another RB the Cowboys could ironically use is doing pretty good for us either way as we go thru our growing pains.

Derrick Henry wouldn’t be putting up these numbers currently anywhere else. RBs look good playing with Lamar.

King Henry has regressed and don't let the stats fool you. He goes down on first contact and doesn't make anyone miss. His big gains come from wide open holes and anyone with that speed should break on some of those





Why y'all just come on here & say anything when Google & so many other resources are right there is beyond me :laff:

nikka you proved my point. That run you posted, he wasn't touched at all because of his big hole that I said ppl with speed should get big yards on. Then you posted how he has the highest yards per carry BEFORE CONTACT...Which further illustrates how this nikka is running thru big holes

The video wasn't the point. The reply to the video was.

He still has same amount of yards AFTER contact (which you conveniently ignored) that he's been averaging most of his career at this point. So more or less, it's been about the same with little to no drop off.....at 31 years of age.

So yes, you are correct that he's seeing holes he hasn't seen in a long time, but you're INCORRECT in that he's lost a step *because* he goes down after first hits a lot when he's top 4 this year alone in yards after contact, and comparing it to HIS career, it's about the same.
