Chris Brown isn't the short yardage guy that we thought. I agree that the offensive line let him down on the 4th and 1, but he got decent push on 2nd down. He isn't powerful enough downstairs to push a pile. He is big yes, and he could wear a D down over the course of a game, but I don't think he has it in him to be a great shortyardage back. Chris Henry has a lower center of gravity and hits the hole very hard and fast. I think they need to definantly give him some reps...Just my thoughts and 2 cents. Let's go TEXANS!! 10-6 in 2009

He couldn't hurt. It is obvious Chris Brown can't be the short yardage guy and it was really crazy to think he could have. Chris Brown nearly stands straight up when he runs. Henry is 6' and 230lbs. He has the size to be a power runner, I honestly haven't seen enough out of him to know if he has a power running style though.

We need him in uniform at Cincy this Saturday. He hits the hole very hard just like Moats but he is bigger and faster.

Definantly! J/K Red Cowbell!

I do agree with giving Chris Henry the rock... I mean what more could hurt our run game any further?
