lol, because you say so?  They lost because Tannehill was getting destroyed--7 sacks (yet they still put up 15 4th Q points to tie the game into OT) and the D couldn't stop the great Zach "Mr. 4thQ" Wilson.  But, because you say so, Jones and his 3 catches for 40 yards would have changed the outcome.  Sure doc.

 

You keep saying he's a difference maker yet you can't point to an actual difference he has made for the majority of the season.  He's contributed 13 1st downs (on 31 targets) out of a team total of 201 and zero TDs.   Neither their running game nor their passing game is better this year because of him.  That's not a difference maker, unless you are redefining the term..


It’s not just me. I bet if you asked most people they would say that his presence would’ve gotten them the win over the Jets.  Again for reasons that go beyond just his individual statistics.  It’s the reason you add a guy like him and expect/hope for him to stay healthy all season for you.

and beyond the team's stats too?  To a place that can't be known or articulated, other than a bunch of people who might, like you, simply decide it's true?  There's no reason to believe he would been the difference in that game.  

 

And no one is arguing about WHY they wanted him and what they EXPECTED and  HOPED for.  I'm saying it's overwhelmingly clear they didn't get that.

Yeah they didn’t get it because he’s been injured for a third of their games so far and now it will be more.  I think at the very least we can argue that if he’s not playing he can’t help the team.

Well that's certainly a true statement.

 

Henry is the actual big loss.
