A Stiff Henry

by

If there has been one consistent joy this NFL season, it’s been watching players get ‘A Stiff Henry’ from the stellar Titans running back.
Fantasy owners of Henry have been constantly impressed by his tough and rough play, as well as  his ability to gash for countless yards after the touch.

Perhaps the most impressive thing about the runs Derek Henry has put together this season, is the reaction from his own teammates.
Watching the cringes, ‘oh no’s’, and resulting memes and gifs that result have been nothing short of pure, joyous entertainment.

Even his own cum-back kid Ryan Tannehill has been impressed by his running back, not for the least of the reasons being it takes the pressure off of his inconsistent play.

Check out Tannehill’s reaction to one of Henry’s killer runs in 2020, it’s safe to say he was blown away.

You know who else has been HUGELY impressed by Henry this season? Everyone who has had to face him in fantasy and watch him rack up massive points to put you out of the season.

Sunday Picks

by

And then there were 4.
2 from the AFC, 2 from the NFC in the final battle to determine who goes to the Super Bowl.
We have been here every year since the NFL began, but Sunday is particularly sweet because there are no New England Patriots playing in this one.
It seems…nice.

So who wins the two games tonight?
Wade & Ryan break down their thoughts on the game, and make their predictions on who wins the games on Sunday.

Make sure you visit BetRegal to bet on the games, and play in our DraftKings Leagues to make your DFS picks.

Titans (11-7) vs -7 Chiefs (13-4) +53

The Titans have finally made it to the AFC final. Through some plucky plays, and the legs of Henry,  the Titans finally have a shot at the big game. Or do they?
Do they have a chance against these Chiefs who came back from a pounding to thrash the Texans?
Maybe.
The Chiefs can be scored on, which was evident last week.
The real question is can the Titans compete in a game when they go down by a few scores?
Then they have to rely on Tannehill, which won’t go well.
Both Wade & Ryan have the Chiefs downing the Titans comfortably and moving on to the SuperBowl.

Packers (14-3) vs -7.5 49ers (14-3) + 45

When these two teams met in Week 12, it was rather ugly. The Niners beat up on the Pack 38-7, and chased Aaron Rodgers all over the field.
Could the same happen again this week? Maybe.
But you can see how the Packers would have learned from that game, and applied some other routes to get Adams open.
Bosa will have his hands full of Bulaga, which should give Rodgers some more time.
Jimmy G had a stellar game last week, but doubtful if he will replicate that after the Packers D’s performance last Sunday.
The Packers should be able to keep it close, but both Wade & Ryan have the 49ers nudging out the game for a victory.

Both guys see the Super Bowl being made up from the Chiefs and 49ers.

Join us tonight at Long Acre where we will be watching the AFC contest. Bar closes after the game.

See you tonight!
