Indy Dave Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 I'm one of the biggest Travis supporters here, but if the Raiders keep playing this overly-aggressive defense, I think Willis' style is a better fit today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
respk Posted September 19, 2004 Share Posted September 19, 2004 Let's face it. Henry is a good back, but nothing spectacular. His penchant for dropping the ball seems to be a problem again. He almost lost one fumble and his butter fingers on the pass caused an INT. Let's hope Henry has a good year, McGahee shows that he is ready and we can trade Henry next year.

BigDaddy12 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 The kid has the goods.......give him the rock!!!! 36991[/snapback] McGahee is nothing but subterfuge, he has no explosion and is tenative to hit the holes. He's a slower, whimpier version of Henry........for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I just don't get why MW isn't getting carries. It has to have something to do with TH's fragile ego. There are lots of top backs in the league who get spelled from time to time by their backups. WM should be getting at least 5-8 carries a game in relief of Henry. And if we're truely the "smashmouth" team we're supposed to be that would still leave Henry 22-25 carries a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it has nothing to do with TH! So don't bring up that stevestojan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gore tore both ACL's and is tearing it up this year for the hurricanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB2004 Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I'd like to see Travis Henry run behind an average offensive line. Then that keep most people quiet about Henry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure it was catchable...but it was a tough catch, Drew threw it much too high and too hard...once again the guy shows he has no touch on the short routes.
