Bama ties withstanding, anyone that thinks he's not the best pure back in the league is just plain dumb and should not be allowed to discuss foosball

I admit, I said he wasn’t that good and was a product of a dominant line at Bama. My football scouting credentials have been revoked.

a lot of times it's both, the Oline and the RB are both really good. But the MSB generally thinks it's one or the other.

How would have he fared with the Cowboys over the Titans?

Pure backs aren't worth a shite in modern football

Henry is good at football.

I thought Lenny would be the better NFL back, I was wrong.

I think Lenny was absolutely the better college back.

In today's pass oriented game, I'd prefer Kamara over Henry. Last season Kamara had about 300 less yards, 3 more TDs, more yards per touch, and did all of that on 140 or so less touches from scrimmage.

He's awesome but that turd on the back of his neck is horrific.

That play solidified how good Henry is for me.

I had no idea he that type of breakaway speed. Alot of backs would have been tackled.

The NFL was better as a RB league.

I remember very vividly watching him play at Bama and watching him be a product of that environment. Running behind that line made it seem like it was superficial, kind of like Trent Richardson. Fournette was the better back in college and was performing better at the same time as Henry. I think that’s why there’s so much disdain from LSU fans for Henry. I can admit that I didn’t think Henry was this good, and honestly, he’s really fricking good.
