I’ll have to see how his career pans out, there’s a lot of great RB’s out there still ahead of him. He’s really good but I put him in the Arian Foster category at least for 2 more seasons of the same production before we start talking goat status.

Arian Foster was my guy but was less durable and was at 6309 yards thru 6 completed seasons, only one of which where he wasnt the full time starter...

Henry didn't start full time until Y3, is already at 6213...

Foster was more of a complete back and more elusive but Henry is more dominant runner of the ball, period. Excellent ball control, footwork, vision, these are things Foster excelled at too but Henry starting basically just his 4th season has already amped to a level Foster didn't reach...

And Foster was my guy!

Tomlinson and prime AD still the best I've ever seen

Tomlinson was overrated, he was Diet Faulk. Henry is better and more unique and dominant in his era. LT's prime overlapped with guys like Ricky and Curtis Martin and Fred and Corey Dillon doing they thing, amongst others, and peak for peak Ricky was better than LT, he just ain't have the longevity of consistent greatness LT had...

But watching Tomlinson play was like nuts who say Kobe is the GOAT or better than Mike, he's Diet Mike.....we already saw an original, better version of LT. His name was Marshall Faulk. And I maintain Faulk is pound for pound the greatest back I've ever seen, ALL things under consideration...

Faulk was better than AD...

AD is somewhat overrated, he had ball control issues that Henry doesn't have but the straight up dominance was certainly there, no question...

Was that rushing only or all purpose yards? He was the only 3 down back I’ve seen in a long time that would split out wide and run a go route for td’s ON CB’s! OUTSIDE THE NUMBERS!
Whenever we would run empty backfield it would fk that defense completely up because they had to pick a poison of Andre Johnson, Daniels, or Foster taking the top off slow ass LB’s or not enough corners on the field.
