Side note: sorry about the mass of posts in a row by me. Was just catching up to the stuff since I went to work. Don't know you forums stance on this. In the future I will put multiple quotes and responses in one comment ifnthat is how you prefer it. Just let me know.
Is Henry more physically imposing? Sure.
Charles was a terrifying back to face, though. Track speed with great patience and the ability to take any touch the distance. Huge playmaker/gamebreaker.
He single-handedly beat a lot of teams over the prime of his career, including that 2013 season.
Tannehill has more arm than Smith. Won't argue that. But the way they play and are set up by the things around them and can make some plays with their feet is similar.
Hope for your sake your team is smarter about what it pays a QB of that general type than the Chiefs were. [Reply]

I corrected the other titans fan. And said our redzone d was crap before the playoffs where it has been good but that is only 2 games. Then you compaired tanny and henry to your old scat back and alex smith?
We all know that is a joke. I wont even get into the running backs but saying tanny is anything like Smith is past laughable. Tanny is averaging over 9 yarda a attempt. That is the opposite of Smith even if they are both game managers.
Smith had similar numbers in 2017... His average actually went up in the playoffs... Tanny is only averaging 50% completions with 5.5 per reception in the last two playoff games... This with Henry going off for 180+ in both games. [Reply]

Most passes to start a season without throwing an interception (287, 2017) - NFL Record [Reply]

This post might age like milk but more I look into this match up this has all the makings of a routine walk in the park win for the Chiefs. Almost a boring let down for the neutrals watching. [Reply]

I don't think it will be a walk in the park. At least initially I think it'll be pretty hard-fought. They're going to throw body blows; we're gonna throw a lot of lightning combos. A football version of Ali vs. Foreman maybe. Should be pretty interesting. [Reply]

If the same defense that played the Ravens shows up at Arrowhead wearing Tightens uniforms Sunday.... Patrick is gonna go ham. Tits secondary looked pretty bad and got lucky Lamar couldn’t capitalize. So ready for this game! [Reply]

Tennessee was 12th in points per game allowed this season.

He was a scat back. That is not a insult. I know he averaged 5ypc over his career and was a great receiving back. But that dosn't change the style he played. I was just saying that Henry is different type of animal. It is like comparing a cheetah to a rhino. [Reply]
