Reply to this with your best Earl Thomas joke
Earl Thomas
That’s the joke
Look at me. You are my lead blocker now.
*hE gOt tURneD tO a lEAd bLOckEr comments intensifying*
Earl Thomas got stiff armed so bad he switched teams mid play
Derrick Henry stiff armed him into a bed with his brother
Henry’s stamina and never getting tired is his greatest attribute, and that’s saying something because he’s elite in so many ways.
sure don’t
His hips are underrated as well. His subtle movements are incredible for his size
Henry's cut-back at 3:03 is so impressive. That a man who is 6'3" and 245 lbs can make that violent cut while maintaining his long-stride and speed is phenomenal.
The acceleration right at the cut and during is what got me too, he's gaining speed as he's cutting upfield. Insane
One of the most impressive runs I saw last year. Just incredible.
@George Kerby didn't derrick have 200 yards against the texans?
@Freddy Kitchens yeah i have no idea what that dude is talking about. Henry is having a monster year.
@@isaiahking6004 another year, and another 200 yard game against the Texans
It's like watching madden again. Just stretch over and over
The Titans should be the only team in madden that you can run 95% of the time and still dominate!
Lol every team in madden runs like that.
LOSO yeah in madden 20 unfortunately
ESPN 2k5 is more better at replicating this running style yall talking about
Madden sucks
He’s like a madden creation come to life; he’s just INSANE
Actually he reminds me of another Titan/Oiler the former Heisman trophy winner Eddie George 6'3 235
Eddie was one of derrick’s mentors so it makes sense lol
Not only are they both very tall, large, fast backs, they were also long-striders with limited wiggle who did their best damage when only asked to make a single cut--no dancing. Let's see if Henry can be as durable as Eddie.
Eddie was not as big strong or fast as Henry. He was a grinder but Henry can score on any play.
I was just about to say, as far as physical measurables they forgot all about Eddie George...Brandon Jacobs too
Eddie George was so muscular he was made of granite.
Seen a lot of RBs have a good season or two. Henry might very well be a next level player.... but what you do over time is far more important than a hot run to one season
Derrick Henry is one of the only running backs I believe deserve a big deal.
I want him to get paid, just because of his production, mentality and how he is as a person. But big backs don't tend to last long (defenders always go low on them) Derrick Henry is a huge one cut back, so he's not a classic thumper like say Brandon Jacobs. I would extend Henry if I knew I had a back on the roster that could compliment him, and take some of the load off.
I thing he will because he can last long because the Thing about him compared to other backs is he is a big back so most times he’s not the one getting hit the defenders is with either a truck or stiff arm but since he does like to go where other players are he is getting hit harder and not running out of bounds so I don’t know
solar neon yes guys and don’t forget that he is faster than most backs too!
I'm a huge Titans fan. When you're at the game he looks like he's running in slow motion since he's so big, it's a weird thing to witness.
Eric Dickerson also seemed to be running slowly, when he was moving at warp speed (to all except Darryl Green). Both Henry and Dickerson were 6'3" long-striders.
@George Kerby Are you high? He had 200+ rushing yards and 50+ yards receiving.
9:56 “but he’s just not about that action” lmaooooooooo
Let's not forget about Eddie George who was also 6'-3" and 240+ lbs and could power through the line like no one's business. But Henry is a whole other monster!
Well done man. Henry's playoff dominance was one of the best storylines of last season. It kind of seems like putting too many men ON the line of scrimmage can actually end up in huge runs when all the o linemen get their hands on their guy, Henry breaks a tackle and suddenly he's free and clear and all those men on the line are effectively out of the play. Early in the season when the Titans run game was struggling I remember Arthur Smith saying that they'd missed more blocks on offense as a team than Henry had missed cuts. Proved prophetic
@9:55 "pro bowler Matthew Judon has a free shot to smash Henry but he's not about that action" 😂😂😂 #TitanUp
This man helped win my fantasy football championship last season and is definitely my keeper for this year.
I won $500 thanks to this man. I was down by 20+ heading into the last game
Legit people putting kamars and cook over him and but cant be mad cuz i picked him up st 8th pick somehow
u got a good keeper
derrick henry is the Julio jones of running back
Oooo I'm with that
More like the Megatron
@@TheGuyCalledX which is why I think he will have a long career actually, Megatron just fell out of love with the NFL
Nah
@@matts9487 that was partly due to the team that drafted him, I wouldn't want to play for a franchise like the Lions either.
CROWN MY KING
Done
O LORD THIS MEN IS A MACHINE PURE IRON💪💥💣
Earl Thomas has a nose for getting Derrick Henry to the end zone
"Not about that action." The best quote in the video
To answer your title:
1 can break tackles without slowing down
2 can break multiple tackles
3 can score on any play if a defender fails
4 coach started calling his favorite plays all the time leading to wide open holes
Your first minute is pretty much everything people said about Shaun Alexander& Eddie George. While #37 & #27 never had a 99 yard run, I cannot help but think of them when I see Henry.
I like how you included that Daniel Sorenson tackle on Henry. Even though he got the first down dirty dan tackled him one on one not letting him get a huge gain.
All hail The King!
Every time Derrick Henry gets the ball....he can create absolute destruction! That statement was 1000% on point @AlexRollinsNFL
Thanks brother! I gotta do another episode on him for this year
@@AlexRollinsNFL Yes indeed!!! Awesome. I'll be looking out for it.
2:27 Guys his size are not supposed to cut like that. He’s unbelievable.
That score before the half and to start the half killed the Titans and their plan.
I agree 1000%!!..😔😔
King Henry is a unicorn. Watching him BREAK the Pat's defences was absolutely beautiful. Was waiting for the DB's to run away for the sidelines. One more quarter and that would have been reality
Its still "nice" that Derek henry got 69 yards in the chiefs game
nice
nice
Nice
I wanted to say it so bad
Nice
TITANS SUPPER BOWL 2021
Probably not but gud spirit
This guy is an absolute beast, he runs hard. I don't see him having a super long career, drafting him next season for sure though!
Lol Exactly
henry is the answer to the question "what if john riggins had speed?"
Derrick Henry is the biggest running back I’ve ever seen. I am still in awe of his sprinting speed considering his size 🤯
Dynamo You should look the picture 2018 training Camp “Derrick Henry and Lewis” it is funny how small Lewis is compared to Henry
@@lgrw9883 The Henry and Mark Ingram one too when Ingram showed up at a Bama game
A really excellent analysis.
His run form is just like Eric Dickerson. Upright and lethal in space
One thing I have always noted is that stacking the box and bringing a safety up at the line is the worst decision you can make against Henry. Those are usually the long breaking runs he gets. Clemson figured this out after the first long TD and rarely did it again. It got them success. They could contain him better because if they kept trying it all he has to do is make a safety take a bad angle. It basically makes Henry just have to out athletic your defense with good blocking to go along with it. Hes already the most athletic person on the field for the most part anyway. Then he has great patience. You always keep 2 safeties up so he has less of a chance to get the touchdown. Even as shifty he is for his size, he still isn't that shifty for a RB. Definitely going to the HOF if he keeps this up.
I guess you don't remember Christian Okoye At 6'1″ and 260 pounds, with the ability to run a 4.45 second time in the 40-yard dash, Okoye possessed both unique size and speed for the running back position. This drew the attention of the Kansas City Chiefs, who drafted him in the second round of the the 1987 NFL Draft.
He's the modern day Jim Brown.
You should do a matt stafford film breakdown and how you think he is going to bounce back
Lol forcing an opinion much?
@@graysongutierrez6193 uhhh not really... I'm pretty sure he said bounce back because Stafford was injured last year
Tyler Reynolds he’s telling him how he should think ab Staffords return. It’s the wording of it. What if he doesn’t think he’ll bounce back
I love how sports networks seem to keep reliving the same scenario again and again but don't remember. For the last 3 seasons the Titans have racked up big win after big win. Have the best RB in the league (and it isn't close), a once in a generation talent in Derrick Henry. Teams in all fairness do all they can putting 8 men in the box against them, something that happens more against Henry than any other back, yet he still runs by or through them. They are a really good team but they aren't from those major cities so get little recognition and little national playtime but you would think by now they would have seen enough to stop them from underestimating the Titans, but it seems they they never will. I guarantee you if you ask the people who know football best (other players and coaches) tell you very quickly how scary this team is even with Tannehill at QB and them trading away or letting any good receiver they have go to another team. But it all comes down to #22 who is the Titans offense, you know it, I know it, all the other teams know it yet can't really do a damn thing about it and then the Titans defense which is a top defense in the league. But yeah at some point sports analyst are going to have to eventually start giving the Titans the credit they are due.
Another great vid as always can you do a safety next that’s my favorite defensive position. Tyrann Mathieu is my favorite safety in the NFL!
Thanks Blaise, yeah that's a great idea. I've been wanting to do Jamal Adams, he deserves way more recognition
AlexRollinsNFL yea I completely agree
Phenomenal content as always. Alex made the video, and Henry's ability is self evident. So I'll suggest that everyone who sees this (if they haven't already) look up bussin with the boys on YT. It's a podcast with Titan's pro bowl tackle Taylor Lewan, and Will Compton. It's great, and they've had King Henry on there before, one of the most humble people you'll ever see.
Can we get a vid about Courtland Sutton's breakout season?
That would be awesome, but for now DREW LOCK. That offense is going to be filthy.
I just did a Drew Lock video, he targets Sutton on several of the plays I broke down
I want that video too Sutton gets no lobe
Love
AlexRollinsNFL kyler?
Great as always, Alex. As I watched, I expected the KC would give the blueprint on how to stop him, so it was kinda disappointing when you said they simply outplayed the titans OL lol with the loss of Jack Conklin that could happen more often next season tho
Thanks Vitor, yeah I really hate bland football analysis, but there really wasn't anything tricky about the way they played him. We should have seen that game and known the 49ers were in for some trouble
@5 Minute Philosopher Players have talked about the emotional toll as well. Those first two games, plus trying to keep up with Mahomes... taxing
I always thought the Titans needed to get stronger at the guard position. They seem to struggle against the top DT s.
@@AlexRollinsNFL Just to be clear, I was not criticizing your analysis. Just disappointed with the outcome lol
@@defdrop9820 Saffold was a good aquisition tho. I'm sure McVay misses him
Yes more Alex Rollins videos
Great break down of the plays. Very interesting to have someone point out and explain what all is going on during a typical nfl play. Just subscribed
Appreciate that PK! Glad to have you
Tractor got his bag today!
I know different back altogether but still reminds me of cj2k.
That one downvote is from Earl Thomas.
Please reconsider Earl
Opposing teams r watching this video and taking notes bruv
Henry and the Oline carried this team to the AFCCC. This video and many others are about Henry being dominant. Yet the Titans gave Tannehill the big contract and are dicking Henry around. Brutal.
Tannehill was a key part of the reason why the titans even had a shot making the playoffs
Man, I love Henry but your videos are 💯 always on point! Always look forward to the new episode
Thanks man! appreciate that
He forgot to mention that the Titans dominated the first half of the KC game as well as beating KC during the regular season. The Titans were on a come back during the AFC championship game and just ran out of time. Mahomes is a one man show like lemare Jackson and that will be the down fall of those teams. Where as the Titans it takes the O line to open things up for Henry and the play action of the Titans is deadly. That being said there is no I in team with the Titans, it takes the whole team to win. Titans have a great chance to win division and see some post season action again and maybe a Superbowl if they play right.
Just want to add that we have seen that size and speed combination before: Brandon Jacobs. But Henry is currently better than Jacobs was
Very true, but while their testing speed is comparable, Henry moves much faster than him
@@AlexRollinsNFL yeah the cut speed and vision Henry has is epic
Also Jerome Bettis
Jacobs didn't have the speed henry has
Oilers/ titans have had some great running backs....earl campbell, eddie George, chris Johnson now derrick Henry
MR DOUBLE STIFFARM
Alex, I tune into your videos each week, love learning about the game each time. I had a video request. I'm a diehard Atlanta Falcons fan. Many of us would love to have your beloved Kyle Shannahan back, but we're currently stuck with Dirk Koetter. Could you do a breakdown of Koetter's scheme and what makes it successful? I ask because after the success he's had with Atlanta in years past, flashes of success in Tampa, what was it about last year that made Atlanta's offense mediocre at best (my opinion, and statistically supported in a way)? Is it that the personnel doesn't fit what Koetter likes to run? What changes do the Falcons have to do to be successful under Koetter? Thanks as always fan, keep up the great work
Thank you Joe! Since I'm somewhat new, I'm trying to expand to all 32 teams, I need to space out each team a bit. I love the video idea, I'll put that in my ideas folder, but since I just did the Julio video, I probably won't get to the Falcons for a bit. Thanks for the kind words, tuning in and the suggestion
I'd love to see you break down how the Chiefs defense managed to put an end to his epic run.
Never mind I see you already did it in this video.
Great Video again !! Keep it up Alex !!
Thanks Frosty, appreciate it man
I am curious about Adrian Peterson's yards after contact. But nobody ever considers BO JACKSON. 6'3" 235 lbs 4.12 40. I don't care if he was just a"part time" player. Still hands down the best physical specimen ever to play running back in the NFL.
Is it just me or did the ravens looked scared to tackle them 😭
Henry taught their sorry asses a lesson
everybody and their mama scared to tackle him
In both runs shown have poor effort by the defenders to actually tackle Henry. Cornerback Keion Crossen for Huston deliberately takes a false step to avoid having to make contact with Henry. And Brandon Carr belly flops onto the turf to show he 'tried hard'. Much like the Marshawn Lynch Beast Mode run against the Saints, the biggest takeaway from the film is the lack of effort by the defense rather than the skill of the runner.
@@jamesthrice2253 isn't that a testament to his running ability though if nobody is willing to tackle him? There's a reason his yards come in the second half. He spends the first half pounding for 2 yards a carry until nobody will get in front of him.
This may be a bit far-fetched but dude's similar to Jim Brown. The highlights and how people described both of them are pretty similar. Big guys with elite speed, long arms, amazing strength, and a little wiggle in their running. Both are borderline impossible to tackle. Both are the centerpiece of their team's offense. This means that if Henry stays healthy, he could possibly end up having a similar career to Brown.
A lot of harm tackling no, technical tackling a, true strong safety will give him what he's looking for. GO BROWNS !!!!!!!!🏈✌☝️
Do you mind if I ask, where do you find all these films? And what is the copy right situation with these films? Your videos have raised my interest in looking more into the details of every play, so it will be nice if you can give me the source to them, thank you very much, and I love your videos!!
All 22 footage is part of NFL Game pass so buy that and you can see side angle and end zone shots of each play
Bo covered it, go to NFL gamepass. They were offering it free during quarantine, but idk if they still are. Last time I paid, it was 100/ year
The guy's a Uruk-hai bred in Isengard!
3:00
58 over pursued so hard I'm screaming in my house.
It was 10 degrees colder with wind chill all week in TN cinda weird
This is how many people think King Henry should be the official spokesperson of Roman Swipes due to all the Vicious Stiffies he helps hand out! 👇
Got a video of derrick henry pointing at me in houston his rookie season at a hotel😉
#imcool
lets see it
great channel man you wats up !!!!
Thanks Randy, appreciate that bro
The intro kinda reminds me of Brett Kollmann
Same he’s who i go to when brett aint uploading i know u see this brett🙂
Joshua Tuggle yea it’s good hearing a second opinion
Joshua Tuggle I love what Brett is doing rn with his my channel is yours thing
The AFC : I don't fear nothing but this thing...
*DERRICK HENRY*
AFC: it *scares me*
Chiefs : who?
So we gonna forget he ran 188 yards against the Chiefs back in week 10
GOAT talk
He’s really and more aggressive dk metcalf at running back
2:04...ummmmm created player? Damn he's good.
My Bucs have incredible run defense. No one runs on us. Derrick Henry still worries me.
That first play against the Pats is definitely a scheme win for the Pats, but Hightower embarrassingly doesn't play his responsibility and gets out of position, else that is a one yard gain if anything. Unfortunately that kind of mistake happens too often for him.
Make one on lions offense - Matt Stafford and Kenny Golladay
How important would you say Conklin was to Henry's success last year?
So a great simple running offense got beat by a great simple defense? Also Mike Vrabel drives a Nissan Titan truck, haha.
We do play at “nissan stadium” after all. They probably gave it to him
Was Christian Okoye faster in the 40-yard dash? I know that Henry is a vastly superior running back than Okoye (Okoye had zero feel for the game and was a pure physical phenom), but I am curious how they compare in straight-line speed.
according to espn, okoye ran a 4.45 forty at 260 lbs. he didn't grow up playing football, but he was a really productive player, even as a raw talent.
@@77crush I knew that Okoye was around 260 lbs, and I thought he was in the 4.5's. 4.45 is incredible. The reason why I asked is that Alex said that at 6'3", 245 lbs and running a 4.52 forty that he is not comparable to any other player we have ever seen at his position. Actually, Okoye was bigger and apparently faster. But Okoye was not nearly as good of a player as Henry. I watched Okoye play, and he never had any vision, ran way too high and lost leverage, and had zero wiggle or cut-back ability. And he fumbled way too often. But man, straight-ahead he was a beast.
@@davidk6269 i watched okoye play too. being from nigeria, he had no knowledge of football until he got to college. he went from learning the rules of football to three years later being drafted by the chiefs. it's easy to see why he was such a raw talent when he got to the league. it amazes me that he achieved as much as he did while competing with professionals who all grew up playing a game that he didn't. btw, i was a fan of the broncos back then, steve atwater's hit on okoye is one of my favorite plays of all time.
@@77crush I recall a game against the Niners, where the Chiefs ran the same run play 3 downs in a row. Ronnie Lott met Okoye in the same gap, near the line of scrimmage three times in a row. Both guys practically had to be carried off the field. I dont think either one was the same after that game.
I'm curious about your take on AJ Dillon, and how he will translate to the NFL.
More or less the same
Nick Chubb is the most underrated back in the NFL u should cover him pls
I'll put him on the list Reezy
You’re actually funny
That's that Madden 12
Hey Alex my man! I was hoping we can get a break down on Brandon Aiyuk!
Hey Will, thanks for the comment. I'll put him on the list
AlexRollinsNFL Yessir!!
AlexRollinsNFL so many niner breakdowns already tho
Reminds me of a slightly smaller brandon jacobs as well
I'd be cool if you could do a similar breakdown to the vikings play action this year
Check out my channel, I did a break down on Dalvin Cook
Thanks!
His body will catch up to him. But for now, he is a freight train.
Need one on tj watt devin bush & minkah!
The whole Steelers defense really
Nah
I have TJ on my list, but that defense is soo good. Maybe I should just do their entire unit (that's what she said)
AlexRollinsNFL 😂😂 good one ! But definitely I’d love either or !! Put them on your list !
AlexRollinsNFL & you do great work one of the few I love watching Saturday’s are amazing thanks to you 😂🙏🏾 keep up the great work !!
Great video just some football terminology is wrong lol getting mike sam and will mixed up. Mike is first linebacker play side. To the left of him is the will and the strong side linebacker is Sam. Played college ball as a lineman football is a language.
Think about it bro i could literally truck derrick henry and ray lewis at the same time then turn around and stiff arm Shaq
It should be illegal to put Henry on any team. It is like playing with a cheat code.
The titans play like 6 year olds in madden
Christian Okoye Jr.
69 yards is still a ok day
#BuiltByBama
The bus 2.0
Blake Kunkel He’s actually not as physical as you would believe I’m not saying he’s not but if he ran like the bus it would be hell
Send him to the pats and run wildcard with cam, Henry, and Edelman all day 👀😂🤔
Another player who has a breakout season when contract is up, gets paid and goes into cruise control.
I agree... same thing happened to Eddie George and Chris Johnson, when they got that big contract, they stopped producing, especially CJ
Do a video on deshaun watsoon!
I'll put him on the list!
AlexRollinsNFL dude is a magician ! one of the best QBs in football ! can’t wait to see him do great without Hopkins an embrace his next challenge an life without him
