D. Henry - Injury/Surgery Thread (MERGE)

Yep, just heard it. Wow!!!

 

If he does have a chance to come back for the playoffs, I am sure that is what they will try to do first. Their schedule, outside the Rams next, is set up for a top 2 seeding in the AFC with Tannehill running the show, IMO.

Their win came with an expensive price tag. Could be our window to climb back in if teams don’t have to scheme against him anymore. 
 

Need to take care of business on our end. 

 

After yesterday, I do not have any confidence in beating a team we are not favored to beat, to be honest. 

 

Bills, Bucs, Cardinals, Raiders, Patriots - I doubt we win more than 1 out of those 5. I still think the Bills are the best team in the AFC and will go to the SB.

We have to….we MUST win 3 out of the 5 there to at least finish 10-7. That’s a tall ask considering how we blundered away yesterdays  strong start. 
 

Agreed on the confidence part. Yesterday’s loss really took the wind out of my sails. I HOPE this loss make Frank wake up. No more self inflicted pain

We still have the Bucs, Cardinals, Bills, Raiders, and Pats. Can Frank really out coach these teams...

Henry suffered a potentially season-ending foot injury yesterday. 
 

I never wish injuries on anyone, and I hope on a human level he’s okay. But if he’s out, then the Titans aren’t in good shape. 

I agree. I would rather take on any team when they are at full strength.

Which one of our guys got hurt excluding bumps and bruise’s?

Let us worry about the Jets. Lots of underneath passing to the RBs they do, a recipe for success against us and our D scheme.

Oh man… we lose against the Jets the knives will REALLY be out. At that point tue season will

Be effectively over. 
 

To your point it feels like a trap game. Mike white might have a career completion day against us. He carved up the bengals pretty good.

Need to take care of buisness on our end. 

Colts are done after that lost. With upcoming games against the Bills, Bucs, Cards, Raiders and Pats, the odds don’t favor the colts

Three of those teams will beat us because they are better. Bucs,bills,and Cardinals. Pats may beat us because we will get out coached. Raiders is a toss up

You’re being pessimistic not realistic.  There are a lot of games left to be played.  I can see why that’s the initial reaction but we have a long way to go.

Just having nightmares about Wentz playing hero ball versus bill bellichick

Makes it even more frustrating that we let Tannehill beat us. We got beat by a combo of a decent Ryan Tannehill and a one legged Derrick Henry at home. Pissening.

We got beat by Wentz playing dumb at the end of the game. He temporarily went into hero ball mode rather than taking what the defense gave. 

 

We'll now see what Ryan Tannehill truly is without Henry. Defenses can now play the pass much more effectively against them.

I think you are being optimistic and not realistic.  They have the tie-breaker, so we are 4 games back. 

As far as should win games, I see the Colts with 4 and the Titans with 5.  I don't see a "realistic" avenue to make up 4 games. 

Colts play:

Jets

Jags

@Buffalo

Tampa

@Houston

Patriots

@Cardinals

Raiders

@Jags

 

Titans have:

@Rams

Saints

Texans

@Patriots

Jags

@Steelers

49ers

Dolphins

@Texans

We got beat by their best weapon - Frank Reich.

I see 3 games the Titans could lose without Henry. I see 5 games the Colts could lose.

 

Titans end up at 12-5 and a possible #2 or #3 seed in the AFC, and Colts end up at 8-9 and out of the playoffs in all likelihood.

Any word on Tyquan Lewis?

 

He is planning on suing the turf monster. :)

I think he's being quite rational and pragmatic.  JMO

    • Nice mock. Most of the players you took, end up with the colts in my mocks,too. Really like it!
    • Does anyone really think that Chief roster is good enough to make the playoffs minus Mahomes? I don't. If it weren't for mahomes, their running backs would scare no one. They would have one reliable pass catcher who be be able to make plays(Kelce). And there defense would suddenly look very ordinary and wear down from an offense that would go three and out way to often(think our offense with Matt Ryan and his ability to not throw the ball downfield). When you have a qb the caliber of Mahomes you can do things differently because Mahomes makes everyone else on the team look better. Question, how many superbowls did Reid win in his career before Mahomes became his qb?
    • Nice mock.  Don't have anything negative to say about it.  Would be happy if Colts got these players.
    • In this mock, I drafted defense early, then went with best fit / BPA approach.  Mitchell helps solidify the CB room.  Cooper is compared to The Maniac (that would be awesome if true).  Jenkins for depth on DL.  OC from Wisc to replace Kelly in a year or 2.  I'm a fan of UofL Cardinals, so had to pick Guerendo.  And Ford would replace MAC while on a rookie contract.  What do you guys think?   15. Quinyon Mitchell, CB Toledo Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 195 lbs |RAS: 9.84 Strengths - Can click and close and undercut passes in an instant with his elite recovery speed - Proven ball-hawk with six interceptions and 37 pass breakups over past two years - Energized short-area mover with torrid foot speed and effervescent corrective twitch - Adept processor in off-man and zone, who can instantly trigger on route breaks - Has the frame, targeted physicality, agility, and fluidity to dictate reps in press-man - Has the versatility to play the boundary or the slot in man, off-man, or zone coverage Weaknesses - Doesn’t quite have elite fluidity and sink when bending to close ground on hitches - Can be baited into making premature hip transitions by nuanced WRs at stems - Relatively inexperienced in press-man, and can improve upper-lower synergy - Can keep shoring up his tackling form as a support defender   51. Edgerrin Cooper, LB Texas A&M Height: 6 - 2 |Weight: 230 lbs |RAS: 9.34 Linebackers who naturally, and consistently, make plays, are impossible to replicate. They can run a 4.7 40-yard dash and still be valuable because they process information at lightning speed and are innate playmakers. Edgerrin Cooper is that player, but with outstanding athleticism and length. That length allows him to wrangle ball carriers with an incredibly high hit rate. He knifes through blockers and consistently makes plays around the line of scrimmage, while also providing a bump as a pass rusher. Dalton Miller   82. Kris Jenkins, DT Michigan Height: 6 - 2 |Weight: 299 lbs |RAS: 8.92 Being the son of a former NFL All-Pro, it’s no surprise that Jenkins has some of the most enthralling tools in the class. He’s an incredibly explosive athlete off the snap, both laterally and vertically, and has suffocating strength at the point of attack. Going further, with his burst, twitch, and mass, Jenkins can levy impressive amounts of power into his attacks, and as he trends up with his hand usage and energy efficiency, it’s exciting to think about the potential that remains unearthed. -Ian Cummings   103. Jermaine Burton, WR Alabama Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 196 lbs |RAS: 9.54   117. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson, S Texas Tech Height: 5 - 10 |Weight: 197 lbs |RAS: 8.87   151. Tanor Bortolini, OC Wisconsin Height: 6 - 4 |Weight: 303 lbs |RAS: 9.79   158. Javion Cohen, OG Miami (FL) Height: 6 - 4 |Weight: 324 lbs |RAS: N/A   202. Isaac Guerendo, RB Louisville Height: 6 - 0 |Weight: 221 lbs |RAS: 9.98   219. Brevyn Spann-Ford, TE Minnesota Height: 6 - 6 |Weight: 260 lbs |RAS: 7.58  
    • I've seen talk in Colts forums (not just this one) that says the Colts need to stack talent and not just picks.  So this mock addresses that strategy.  Traded back a few times to get 6 picks in the top 85.  Opinions?   26. Adonai Mitchell, WR Texas 54. Trey Benson, RB Florida State 56. Ruke Orhorhoro, DT Clemson 57. Payton Wilson, LB NC State 82. Max Melton, CB Rutgers 85. Will Shipley, RB Clemson 234. Prince Pines, OG Tulane 2025 DAL 6th   Didn't realize I had drafted 2 RBs until done, so, probably wouldn't have done that.  But Shipley was the best talent available at that pick.  And he is a great receiving RB, which could've helped vs Texans in the last game.
