Though I still can't believe some here think that holding Henry to only 120 yards, most of which happened in the 1st Quarter isn't a total victory. 

If we can shut Henry to just 120 and 1 TD on Saturday, we win.  I keep saying this.  And it keeps getting ignored.

If, on the other hand, Henry goes for over 200 yards and has multiple TDs, we're in trouble.  It's just the way it always is....  The tacks have had our number for decades.  We are 6 and 14 against the tacks since 2013.  Out of 20 games, they have beaten us 14 times.  It's been an embarrassment.

And they key to most those wins has been Henry.  We must stop Henry!!!  From all the games I've watched, if we can hold him to less than 130 yards and only 1 TD, we have a chance to win.  But if he goes off for 200+ and 2 or more TDs?  It's much harder for us to win.

He had 155 yards. Let's not just ignore his catches, please. 
And I've said at least 3 times in this thread that it won't be enough to beat us unless Dobbs has the game of his wildest dreams. 

RE: stopping Henry
The tacks probably still lose if Henry has 200 APY and 2 TDs, because our current offense has shown it can score quickly or control clock if it chooses. 

Simply stated - Henry isn't enough to win this for them unless our offense nosedives and their passing game soars to the heavens.
