They will

People wondered why Henry wasn't getting 25+ carries a game during the season when he was obviously successful.

Now Henry is fresh and ready to be full time workhorse.
I do hope next year Keaton emerges. Hill is good for pass catching, but they need someone to help cut into Henry's regular season carries next year.

16/21, 175, 15 carries, no WR over 25 yards :patrice:

Yea you might be wanna relax on the victory lap my boy. It’s the same shyt we seen before. It looks great. But there’s one path and one path only a chip nowadays and that’s passing the ball. That air force shyt ain’t gon cut it against better teams
They won't have the same gameplan vs superior opponents. They played it this way because they could and if you watched the game Lamar had complete control from start to finish. It was the best game of his playoff career to date, and this is a great sign because he's looked shaky in all of his opening playoff games...

Nothing looked shaky about him tonight...

Broah I don't think that you get satire. :beli:

I would never pick Ryan Tannehill for MVP over Will Levis. :unimpressed:

why was my post quoted :mjlol:
I don't know why mine was quoted either, because it was clearly true and I standby it: Derrick Henry was nothing without Ryan Tannehill handing him the ball 30 times a game and telling Derrick which direction to run in. :birdman:

Give that man Ryan his flowers. :to:

You act like Lamar didn’t pass for over 4,000 yards and 40 tds this year
:heh:

I repeat, no WR had over 25 yards. So yea Lamar had complete control and played perfect——however, he was tucking and running faster than usual. Season high in carries.

So the takeaway should be, man they NEED Zay back. Not, ‘ well nothing to see here we’ll just run over everybody’.

The lions of all teams had to abandon the run vs Buffalo. Bills either shut down or game scripted teams out of the run vs Detroit, LA, SF, and Miami. This is bc the Bills can be unstoppable on offense, long drives, dominate TOP…if you watch the games:beli:

They’d prolly have the same game plan if they played the Bills. They beat the Bills 35-10 earlier in the season the same exact way. Ran for almost 300 on them. The Steelers have a better run d than the Bills

I never said they'd just run over everyone so you're inferring something that wasn't said 🤣

I'm of the belief that if they run into someone who takes away the run and makes Lamar have to win as a passer, he gone do it...

Which is why I said, they need Zay.

The chargers aren’t the ravens of course but we just saw in 4k what it can look like if you can’t win at WR at a high rate come playoffs. They got away with a Subpar receiving core all year then voila. Playoffs is different. And the causal eye will see Herbert 4 picks and think it’s all on him but a lot of that is on subpar WRs not winning, bad routes, poor at the catch point, etc

Bills pass d is elite. Bateman is aight but that Agholor and Tylan Wallace shyt ain’t gon cut it

They don’t NEED Zay to beat the Bills. He had one catch for 10 yards the last time they played and they still won 35-10
:heh:

How are people not liking this move? He was on a poor Titans team with Tannehill and Levis and still produced.

He's going to absolutely tear it up this year. I'd say a minimum of 1,300 yards. Wouldn't be surprised to see 1,600+ rushing yards from him.

Looking forward to a Henry to Lamar TD pass as well.

Genius. :wow: .

:heh:

Yall still don’t get it :snoop: why has Lamar never gotten far, never won a chip? Bc of the run game?! No. It’s bc you are not wining come playoffs vs elite teams without a high end WR1 or at least super reliable WR1. These are razor thin margin of error situations.

Chiefs- Kelce, then Kelce and rice
Rams- Kupp
Tampa- Evans , Gideon, AND AB
Plus the Bengals w/ Chase and Higgins and Philly w/ AN and Davante

Nggas see all these recent trends yet think ‘mmmm nah we good Lamar will find a way’

Also you bringing up a regular season game but what did Buffalo do? Added Amari cooper. Also last year ravens should have won it not for that Zay fumble. And they wouldn’t have got there if not for Zay 5/115

Yea, they need Zay. It’s Deja vu. They crushed Houston last year with no notable WR games but the next week vs KC, better comp, they needed Zay
