That's pretty much the normal for a stress fracture. Most folks aren't really aware of the significance of that dull pain with pressure until it "pops". And even when it pops, it doesn't that bad until some swelling around the fracture develops as part of the repair process.
Henry was just being tough- which is his MO. Unfortunate because if he had rested it and/or changed his footwear, probably could have avoided the fracture.
So you’d rather miss the playoffs than give the ball to Henry 25+ times a game?
Absolutely people were complaining about that. Sure we can go back and nitpick some opportunities he could have been taken out but it’s not like half his carries happened in blowout wins or something.
Teams are gonna stack the box when Henry is in the game. If you just choose not to run when that happens we’d never run the ball. Teams are still stacking the box now that he’s gone
2-0 with henry getting 0 carries lol but ok keep thinking the titans are a playoff team because 20 times a game henry runs into a wall of defenders lmao
the obvious punishment for stacking the box is PA
do that until the box aint stacked... and if that means a damn occasional 3 and out drive that only takes a minute off the clock then so be it... would rather that than those useless between the T plunges where the OL does jack shyt
We don’t win Seattle w/o Henry’s workload. Same with Indy the first time. Buffalo too.

If only it were that simple.
It doesn’t matter how much PA the Titans run. Teams will stack the box with 22 back there. It will not change. Hell teams are still doing it with him out of the lineup.
then the PA should be successful
Lol you're missing the point
I've never heard of a "workhorse back" complain about his carries, or a team not feed their best player the ball... especially at mid season. Henry's injury is unfortunate but we are continuing to roll on...it's not perfect but the last 6 games we are 6-0, scoring 25 + points in 5 of them... I'll take it.
Weather the storm until everyone is healthy, go into playoffs strong

I think people overrate the "stack the box" thing. What I think is more important is getting the defense "on their heels". Going to play action early and often should do that. You either fool them and get big plays or they adapt and then we can start getting our OL off the line and let our backs see some holes.
We need to be pleased with where the team is standings wise at least...lost Henry, no real RB threat has replaced him, no Julio for most games, AJ and Tannehill aren't playing like they should.
being up three scores and going cover 2 does that... and shut down... nope but the cows were in fact more prepared to play today without a doubt
