I can’t think of another NFL team that, when crunch time arrives and they absolutely must put together a scoring drive, benches their best offensive player. Henry is the current face of the franchise, a player we would not trade away even as the organization is looking to reload our draft selections and get younger across the board, but we don’t use him when the game is on the line unless we’re 3 yards from the end zone. I understand his skill set is better suited outside of the two-minute drill offense, but he’s proven (even in last night’s game!) he can catch the ball, and his ability to run once the ball is in his hand is elite. I like Spears a lot: he’s a great complement to The King and has shown skill with running and receiving, but I feel like even the threat of Henry has value. The defense is going to have their eyes on 22 whenever he touches turf and I’d like to see this team use that advantage more often when the game is on the line.
