    Murray is worth a trade if the Browns will pull the trigger. We need a running game or it's 2015 all over again.

    Running keeps the D off the field longer

    Running keeps the qb upright

    Running tires the D and puts men in the box .. Great for mismatches Etc

    Oh fuck you guys know how imporntant that is. I dont like the RB's we have now. We need a vet.

    LOL! We had our shots at Henry or Elliot. But we thought it was more important to drop down to wr's and DE's and stock up with unknowns next year. However I would watch who Tenn. drops because they have 4 good backs now.

    Henry and Elliott are just as "unknown" as the guys we picked. Just because a guy is a high pick RB...don't mean he will do diddley. Can you say Trent Richardson?

    The only thing Henry and Richardson have ever had in common was Alabama. It's time to lose that sting and realize the difference is night & day between the two. And if Lacy can continue his weight loss he just might equal Henry some day. It's also time to make the comparisons to the Jim Browns and Eddie Georges of the NFL and not other Bama backs. Henry is a throwback to that kind of size, speed and power. And as I have flatly stated multiple times, he is going to make the Browns and the Browns Board rue the day we did not take our shot. Ogbah had better make all pro some day to make up for it.

    I REALLY wish we went after FA Center Ben Jones that TN signed away from division rival Jax. Flugels

    ******************************************************

    That is a great idea!

    Except he doesn't wear shoes before every game. Always walks the field barefoot....

    except for Cleveland. It was too cold. lol !

    http://www.espn.com/blog/houston-texans/post/_/id/14645/why-texans-center-ben-jones-walks-around-barefoot-before-every-game

    If Irving doesn't pan out at center....too bad, but Jones would have gotten frostbitsies on his toesies.

    I'm glad I didn't have any beverages in my mouth when I read the last part Cal. God bless ya!

    TN returns 3 guys that started games on their offensive last year that gave up a league worst 54 sacks. We even hit them up for quite a few. 1st round OT Lewan, 1st round OG Warmack, and OG Spain or Bell (who got injured again in OTAs I think). Like us, they had to replace their Center and an OT this offseason. They paid FA $ for Center Ben Jones and they prioritized OT Jack Conklin in round 1 of the draft.

    Following a huge down pour prior to opening kickoff yesterday, TN kept their projected starting offensive line in for the entire first half and ran the ball extremely well...

    DeMarco Murray looked like he was back in Dallas enjoying the value of a good run blocking line. Not too much later, Henry looked like a more powerful version of Eric Dickerson. Not getting touched some 5-6 yards prior to a collision doesn't hurt the physics of it all. As I said earlier, even Bishop Sankey got loose later on as that running game rolled up about 288 rushing yards.

    And SD's Defense which ranked 26th vs. the run in 2015? How long did their starters play? Hell even Sankey averaged 17 YPC with a 41 yd TD run.

    Everything is relative...

    THIS is stupid. The guy hasn't had a single carry in an NFL game ans you want to mention him in the same breath as Jim Brown?

    No, its not stupid, it INSANE

    Yeah but I apparently the starting front 4 for SD only played like 4 run plays and they were all under 2 yards for the Titans. So this performance is much ado about nothing.

    It's my prediction. He has all the tools and sooner or later you will agree with me. For the moment however to each his own.

    LOL I thought I had brought it up a tad with my Tyler Lockett selection last year. 😁

    He's now #2 behind Baldwin there in the depth chart. He is #1 for punt and k.o. returns as well. So that should give me extra credit for predicting that he would be more than just another wr. 😛

    Besides I'm more out on the limb with my Dak prediction as the Boys QB in waiting. But that one doesn't count until Romo hangs it up.

  • I was once in a Christmas Carol sketch where I played bob marley, instead of jacob marley. Instead of 'three ghosts' scrooge was visitied by 'tree goats'. We used that exact picture, I believe.

    It wasn't very funny.

    Well Henry (regretfully) is not a Brown either. But I'm counting him as my prediction for success just like Lockett and Dak because the Browns should have taken all 3.

    PS_well at least two old goats won't be butting heads over Dak. 😁

    It's not much ado about nothing here in San Diego. They're a bit concerned about the run defense even after one practice game.

    Fwiw, TN's running game ranked 25th in 2015. They also gave up 54 sacks, which was a league worst.

    I posted the starting line was in there for Murray (who played the 1st quarter) and Henry (who played the second quarter). I also specified Henry and the starting line faced SD's 2nd d-line.
