there is a rule of thumb that says when a RB gets 300 carries in a season, the tread comes off the tires fast

Derrick Henry has had 300 and 378(!) carries in 2019 and 2020.

that has to catch up with him at some point doesnt it?
Probably. But probably not in the first game of the season.

Week 3: Cards @ Jaguars, so of course - two of first three on the road. Not shocked.

Planning on going out to Nashville for this game. Was hoping it would be around Halloween but I guess this works

It's actually 370 carries during the regular season.

Henry fumbled less than 1% of the time. Yowza. What an animal.

Honestly I would rather start 3 straight on the road than:

Road Titans 10 AM Start
Home Vikings 1 PM Start
Road Jaguars 10 AM Start

Just do @Cleveland at 10 AM week 2 and then bring us home for 3.

If those first three weeks hold up then it's 7000+ travel miles in the first 3 weeks of the season.
