Don't understand the nonsense going on in this threat about Henry. Most of us have been critical of him because he hasn't made plays in the last year or so. It may easily be that he was playing injuried which apparently they had to do to keep their jobs and satisfy Parcells. Now Henry is either healthy or the new 34 scheme is allowing him to return to the kind of play Henry gave us in the early 05 season.
I fully admit I became critical of Henry & was very concerned how our secondary would play once Newman was out. Cutting Aaron Glenn & playing Reeves in his place didn't thrill me initially. Now Henry is really stepping up & making some big plays which we really need from our defense. I think that's great and hope he wins DPOW; he deserves it. Also admit Reeves has been doing a more then decent job which seems to mean cutting Glenn wasn't a bad decision at all.
Remain concern about our pass defense but that should improve once Newman returns to full action but primary when our front 7 began to consistently put pressure & sack the QBs. They should be able to continue their initial sack effort against Bulger since he's got OL problems, lost his starting RB, has broken ribs, etc.
We have to be ready to play the Pats in less then 3 weeks. They protect Brady well & right now he has an 80 per cent completion rate. But we are playing in Dallas and seem to have a knack of wearing down opponents. But that's only good if we can hold their offense down, until our offense ready to go. I'd love to see us start strong cause if we unable to do so until late 2nd quarter and 2nd half, we could be out of the game.
