VIDEO: Derrick Henry Delivers Sweet Justice to Earl Thomas With Stiff Arms in Wake of Recent Comments

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry dominated the New England defense a week ago en route to an upset victory. Henry's continued that forward trajectory Saturday night against the Baltimore Ravens, and showed off his strength by delivering a brutal stiff arm to Earl Thomas.

This blow was particularly noteworthy because Thomas was talking a lot during the week, and seemed to imply that the Patriots defense shied away from trying to tackle Henry.
Earl Thomas: “Those guys didn’t seem too interested in tackling [Henry]. I think our mindset is a little different.”

Thomas clearly underestimated the true strength of Henry, but he can be given credit for at least attempting to make the tackle. Now he should understand just how difficult it is to take Henry down and why the Patriots struggled to stop him a week ago.
