Except this is consistent with what McVay has been saying all week. So in this case I trust Rap more. I think Schefter is trying to get a jump on the breaking news. It’s stuff like this that’s a pet peeve of mine with this sport.
I dunno man, I drafted MJD several years in a row after he took himself with the 1st overall pick.
Who else is there to handle mop up duty though? They just put their 3rd RB on the depth chart on IR.
MJD is by far the worst fantasy player in the world. His predictions are hilariously wrong all the time. He would come in last in a casual league, even with inside knowledge.
Yes, no question, but he helped me to a ‘ship with his playing. People have been chasing “the next great” Jacksonville back ever since.
Sony will have a huge workload if Henderson is out.
Pretty much facts right there. They decided he wasn’t a good fit - I guess they wanted to be terrible.
Remember when MIA was tanking for Tua? It seemed like every week, if you played well in MIA, you were quickly traded the next week.Pretty much facts right there. They decided he wasn’t a good fit - I guess they wanted to be terrible.
If Henderson is out I hope Stafford goes 400/4/0
I don’t trust any of them any more. That’s my point.
In this case, the correct order of trustworthiness when it comes to injuries is:
I have to start 3 of these 4: RB Henderson, WR Aiyuk, WR Jefferson, TE Knox. Even though he will be active, I don't trust him to get enough snaps or touches, and plan to roll with the others, even though Knox faces the Patriots, which allows the fewest points to opposing TEs.
I don’t know about that. He is looking really good. I’m concerned that with this performance he will be tough to keep on the bench.
He got Stafford killed at least twice while I was watching and cost them a few other plays by missing blocks.
Would you have thought the same thing if that guy accepted Ridley for Michel 2 weeks ago?
I would have accepted the points but I think Henderson does better against Jax if given 28 touches.
The problem is that would never happen. The most he has had is 21. That is encouraging. The Rams want to run it more. Henderson can continue to get his normal workload (15 carries a game) and Michel shouldn’t eat into that.
Never underestimate McVey switching on a dime. Remember what he did to a healthy Todd Gurley with CJ Anderson and Malcom Brown?
lol no. The RB picks in that draft were historically bad. He isn't a 1st round talent. He has the ability to step in vs a scrub team running out the game clock and produce. Perfect game script for him. If he was good NE would have kept him.
Yep, I have both and this is the worst case scenario. I think there is room for at least Henderson to have his normal roll since they want to run more.Cluster coming....no doubt.
Just in time for the stretch, of course.....
I don't think we can make this assessment after yesterday. Could run the gamut depending on how McVay wants to run the offense. Henderson may have more explosiveness than Sony, and is probably better in pass pro, but McVay may try to use Henderson more situationally to keep him healthy.
I'll be surprised. The performance of a fresh backup with 4 years of samples against one of the worst teams in the league should not influence future decision making.
Maybe - the Jags have not been that of a defense though. Henderson has been solid, but it's not like we're talking about a McCaffrey or Cook coming back to re-inherit his job.
Jags are one of the worst defenses in the league that had an outlier performance against the Bills. Sony is fine with the ball in his hands, but his issues when the ball is not in his hands limits his usage in any offense...but especially McVay's.
McVay didn't say as much in his post-game comments below, but who knows. IMO, it's really a crapshoot how the RB distribution will be going forward.
