AFlaccoSeagulls Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 4 minutes ago, Forge said: Okay. That doesn't prove anything. According to pff, Henry is nearly halfway to that in less than 2 seasons. That's 149 games for lynch. So 5600 in 127 for lynch, 2500 in 29 games for Henry *Edit* Just saw it was from 2016. So 127 games for lynch Yeah I really wanted to examine Lynch's 4-year stretch with Henry's current stretch to evaluate their stretches respectively, but PFR didn't track YAC during Lynch's career until 2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it's something they will do or not. It's awesome info 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrry32 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 On the Lynch-Henry debate, I've never seen a HB harder to tackle than peak Lynch. Even on plays where he got stuffed, it was unbelievably hard to get the guy to the ground. I'm not old enough to have been able to appreciate guys like Barry Sanders, Earl Campbell, etc. in their primes, so I'll limit it to the period of since 2000. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I am not old enough for Earl either, so I can't really judge. Lynch and Henry are probably the highest on the totem pole for me, just lean towards the latter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One pick was a bad drop by Sanders, he basically baby cradled it right to Harris and Brees could’ve had a 4-5 TD and probably but they decided to just feed Kamara inside the ten haha Edited December 26, 2020 by MookieMonstah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Saints put up 250+ yards rushing. Brees was late on a couple of throws. He's really declining but they didn't need to lean on him today. It's nothing new TBH.

But by the end of 16 games, his seasons are pretty consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 2 hours ago, Forge said: That one play is no doubt nice, and more emblematic on a single play basis than anything we associate Henry with, but over the long haul, I do believe Henry was more ferocious in this regard than lynch. Basically, single play peak, lynch >>>>> Henry, but I'll take the latter in anything longer The single play peak, hahaha!! I love that. Let's now add that as another way to compare players. There's entire careers, there's peak career seasons, and now there is single play peak. "Sure maybe Brett Favre is the best Packers quarterback ever, but single play peak?? I'll take Lynn Dickey, Don Majkowski, and THEN Favre." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyB Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 (edited) Oh, and I don't think saying Henry is a better runner/harder to tackle than Lynch is ridiculous. Not sure I have strong feelings one way or another, and a convincing highlight reel of either could be made. I will say I think the Beastquake made him a tad overrated, like OBJ's one-hander his rookie year. I mean sure, as an SPP -- sorry, "Single Play Peak" -- it's pretty impressive, but I think it caused people to kinda overrate his whole body of work. EDIT - Oh, and his nickname is frickin' Beastmode, which is totally awesome, but probably elevated him too.
