XFlash Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 did he tweak his ankle on the 18yd catch? Tackle mid-air and looked to land funny. Now Henry in since. I missed if there was any commentary on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABearWithFurniture Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 He was in on the last series, so guess he's okay...Henry was just in more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XFlash Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 that's good news. Hopefully Murray will get more touches 2nd half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kdko Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I really wish they would just give Henry the reigns so I don't have to keep him benched every week of the year and have him blow up on weeks like this where his performance would have won me the game We've seen what Murray can do, which is impressive by all means, but why not give Henry a shot and see what he can do? He's shined every time, and you don't miss Murray when he's in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdko Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Outside of the musing, for Murray owners I think this is going to start tilting towards at least a 50/50 split sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that was going to be the case earlier when Henry went off for a big game. It might be game flow that is keeping Henry from taking over. If both can be productive like Freeman/Coleman of last year would be great. Maybe if Mariota can stay healthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Henry had 18 carries for 59 yards (3.3 ypc, same as Murray) before that long TD where the Colts sold out to force a 4th down and left nobody at the second level. I wouldn't exactly call those dominant numbers. That being said, I don't think we'll have any clear cut answers until after the Titans' week 8 bye. For now, both Murray and Henry are probably worth starting vs. Cleveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take away Henry's he's 61-246 with a 4.03ypc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boltnlava Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I don't understand the take away the best run approach...you know they can do it who cares if its once or twice? ....pass on talent cuz they almost run the whole field once? In a season where 6 games have played? Murray wears them down and then henry comes in and wears them down more...luck of the draw ...for either.

Well, someone else threw out the 'if you take out his best run,' so I just did a lil' of the same. Truth about not understanding the logic behind it. I don't count big runs against RB's.

If the defense isn't selling out to stop them maybe they don't get that far. I've watched the play now on NFL.com and not sure if I completely buy the "that run doesn't count" angle.

XFlash Posted October 20, 2017 Author Share Posted October 20, 2017 Well, it is not looking good for Murray this week. This is Henry's chance to have an awesome game against CLE defense and take over for TEN RB1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heehawks Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 (edited) Didn't we just go through this exact same scenario not that long ago? Everybody (including me) benched Murray and started Henry. Murray ends up playing and goes off and Henry lays an egg . I am benching both in favor af CJ just to rid myself of the headache.

For this to make sense you'd have to assume that Murray's hamstring has gotten better since that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
