Welp, DH22 finally gets out of his slump, but his big day was overshadowed by his 2 lost fumbles. The first one was huge right before the half and a a momentum killer.
17/121 and Tammy with 250 2/1 would think a win right? Can’t win if you don’t have the ball. Crushing loss on a win that would have basically sealed the deal. We fielded a team of misfits and mothballs, while our “players” are on crutches! Hopefully we get healthy for the run.
Lol use henry like CMC? Henry is like a semi truck, he takes forever to get going.
17 carries
121 yards
1 TD
275 attempts (1st)
1199 yards (2nd)
11 TD (tied 3rd)
4.4 YPC (29th)
Also with henry fumbling twice he is now tied for second in the NFL for fumbles outside of QB's. The guy who is first? Was released because he was fumbling too much.
We now have a top 5 positional cap hit for an average back who fumbles too much. Yikes.
That is an absolutely laughable take.
Agreed
12 RB tied with 4 fumbles.
Only 4 of them have 150 carries.
Only 2 reached 200.
Henry is 55 carries ahead of #2.
that doesn’t take into account total touches and we know 1 of Henry’s fumbles was on a reception.
Fumbles per touch would be a much better way to look at it and 4 in its own right is a pretty low number. Although it is high for Henry’s career track record.
Fumbles are not a problem, blocking is
We’re in agreement. A few posts up, someone believes fumbles: pay ratio is an issue. Likely somewhat sarcastic but you never can tell round these parts.
Yes
I was seconding your notion
Henry has 15 career fumbles on 1800 touches... I don't think fumbling is an issue. Just happened to have a few knocked out this season. (Still not at his career high of 5 in a season)
He's up to 5 this season.
All the way down to 1 every 65 touches.
All the way up to #1 for non-QB's =]
don't understand why we take out our best offensive player pretty much automatically on third down's, especially on 3rd and 2 situations, you're pretty much letting the defense know there is zero chance we are running the ball.
In a tie with other non QBs.
Here’s the fumble rate for the others with 4-5 fumbles:
Damien Pierce -4. 1 in 62 touches
Kamara -4. 1 in 54 touches
Pacheco -4. 1 in 44 touches
Etienne -5. 1 in 42 touches
Ekeler-4. 1 in 40 touches
Melvin Gordon -5. 1 in 23 touches
Montrell Washington -5. 1 in 11 touches
Amari Rodgers -5. 1 in 7 touches
Henry is absolutely fine. Bad year, sure. Far from a fumbling “issue”.
I’ll never understand that especially if they’ve tried to use him in the passing game and he clearly attracts so much attention.
If anything proves the offense is moron Vrabel offense, it is the Henry 3rd down and finishing games thing. That has been in play since Henry was drafted, regardless of OC. Vrabel takes Henry out, not the OC.
and honestly, Vrabel's stubborness is really making me start to dislike him. I may end up hoping we lose every single game next season to force a change if he isnt willing to make some changes and grow.
His fumbles are up, his ypc is down, his ypg is down, his big runs are down. He's fine, but just fine. If we had another piece on offense, that would be great but him as the focal point right now? It's not scaring anyone.
Also thanks for putting that list together it's interesting to see. Amari Rodgers is fucken hilarious.
