Look at the video again...DJ can be joined by:
77
78
And I think even Warren himself
All reacted like the play was over/dead. I'm guessing MOST of the offense thought it was over.
I get why people like to complain about DJ. He makes a ton of money. His body language is lets say "vivid"....but he wasn't the only one guilty on this play...
And I will add that to be totally balanced...DJ made a really big third down shoestring catch later in the game....if we are going to dissect and comb over his every play....we gotta look at the good ones as well.
so will I but I am going to continue to monitor this , I mean it was against the 30th ranked passing defense so I will not anoint anyone after 1 performance , show me some 300 yard games with multiple TD passes and we will talk , ya know ?
this was progress but lets temper exceptions for now
you may not be wrong , its an anomaly for big backs to last long , they take a beating where as faster shiftier backs do not get as many hammering blows on the body , they take more glancing blows catch the corner and run OOB etc ... Henry is one of those anomalies that has been productive longer than most big guys , Bettis was another but for every one of those guys you have 10 Peyton Hillis's who are spectacular but last 2-3 years and fizzle out
