Through a combination of factors, the usually dominant Hall-of-Fame back has struggled in several games this season. Henry was held to just 45 yards and 17 carries against Cincinnati — a measly 2.6 yards per carry. Blocking has been an issue, as Henry has been hit near the line of scrimmage too often, but it is fair to wonder if age is finally becoming a factor for the 32-year-old workhorse. Over the past two games against divisional opponents, Henry has been held to 103 total rushing yards while being kept out of the end zone.
