Westbrook is better than Henry.

Westbrook is a lot like Thurman Thomas.

Fans are in no way qualified to make footbal decisions for an NFL team. Tom Donahoe would need to have his head examined should he ever consider making decisions based on fan sentiment.

Depends on what kind of team is utilizing them.
Westbrook would get crushed if he played in a smashmouth run offense... He's just too small (height and build).

Likewise, put Henry in a westcoast or other pass happy offense, and he wouldnt be very effective.

Good point. A buddy of mine (die-hard Philly guy) mentioned that he'd love a guy like Henry on the Eagles. He loves Westbrook, but feels that he's not good for 3 or 4 yards a crack, between the tackles, where Henry is. Due to the different styles of play, there wouldn't necessarily be a RB-by-committee. They could both be on the field in many instances. Who knows. :idunno:

They could be, but it depends on coaching. Personally, I don't know why Wills and Travis weren't on the field at the same time more this season. I only recall seeing them out there together on one play, and they were both used as pass blockers.

Boy!!!! Where did that come from. Even though I agree I can't believe someone said it.

Westbrook fits Philly's offense to a tee. I just don't see them putting Westbrook on the bench to get Henry in there. They're not a smashmouth team.
