I've seen a few breakdowns online with some fairly complicated schemes that Staley was running

They blitzed early and often very consistently and really really attacked Henry behind the line

The Ravens stopped him. They literally stopped giving him the ball in the second half.

The Ravens didn’t run many total plays period in the 2nd half esp after their first possession

They love making Lamar play hero ball. They want their wins to be him leading them to them but that’s why I think they’re killing themselves.

They need to run Henry into the ground and let Lamar take over when he can’t.

If ever there was a workhorse RB that should get lathered up in a game and wear down the defense, it's Henry.

But, like others said, the Saints played keep away the 2nd half.

I wondered if he had been injured. Frankly, I’m just happy the defense didn’t have to deal with a heavy dose of Henry in the second half, regardless of the reason…

This. We just dared them to give him 25 carries and they didn’t.
