To me, with nothing to gain with a win Thursday that maybe keeping a totally unrealistic chance at a WC alive, Vrabel would be committing malpractice playing Henry given the importance of the Jags game next week.

I get it, they are players and if healthy enough they should play. But he won't be 100% and if you get him hurt against Dallas and he's out against the Jags, woo boy, Vrabel would be facing some serious heat.

I hope they don't play Henry, I don't wanna watch him tear up our defense.

I really wanted this game to mean something. The Titans are a poor man’s San Francisco 49ers. They have a great front 7 and King Henry. We would have been able to see how tough this team is now.

The Titans have lost five straight . Dallas needs to show up stick a fork in them . Serves the owner right . She has a fit AJ Brown punked them so after the Eagles beating she fires the GM . On a first place team. :facepalm:

Derrick Henry always adds a threatening dimension to the Titan's attack.

That's ok, though -- they'll bring forth their best and we'll do the same! ;)

They might sit their guys cause next week's game is for a play off spot, so try again.

Henry....319 carries for the season, 4.5 ypc

Zeke....204 carries, 4.1 ypc.


Yes @CowboyRoy ...number of carries DO matter.

And shut it with the 3 yards and dust bullcrap.
Maybe Henry gets more carries because he's more productive with his carries. I mean a 4.1 average is not someone I want to hand 300 carries to

No point in him or any of the starters to play which is good for us. Should be a W for us, but the easier the W the harder it is for us to win.

Then you do not understand how giving carries to a power back work.

Sorry...not trying to insult you. But if you are 50 years or older...you SHOULD know emmitt got more yards when he had more carries.
4.1 versus 4.5 isn't THAT much different come on man. Especially when you commit to it and allow him to PUNISH the defense through he whole game.

I get it...that isn;t the offense we run now. We got pollard. It';s fine. You just have to understand what's happening. And not bash Zeke for not having the kind of team Henry has.

Look at emmitts number of carries. Okay> Just go and look.

These guys HAVE to have more than 20...or you aren't using them right. Henry often has 25 -30 carries. Even when it's still 4 ypc or so.

Sorry dude...just facts man.
