Yes. It's not like he never gets tackled.
I apologize in advance if what I just said offended or upset you.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

Open field? Probably not, just because him being almost 20 years younger and in better shape he could juke me out. Me playing DT and him coming through the line? Hell yea I could. Not saying he wouldn't truck me a few times (even the best DT can get ran over) but I'd get him just as many times. I'd put a shoulder into him.

Does pushing him out of bounds like that count as a tackle?
I'm pretty sure I could do that.

Every single person on here would look worse than a punter trying to tackle him.
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

Derrick Henry is 6’3” 250 pro athlete. My guess is if he hit any froob full steam said froob would be carted off the field….

In the open field?


No way.




In the hole?



Also no.

The only reason people get carted off the field in football is when their heart explodes from a vaccine.

Ok.. when I was playing college football 100% serious. Now? as an over weight out of shape almost 46 year old? Probably not. But I could manage to plug the hole and take on blockers so the LBers could get him.
