Baltimore Ravens fans are losing their appetite watching offensive coordinator Todd Monken conjure ways to neglect running back Derrick Henry from the game plan.

If fans could toss Monken’s playsheet into the inner harbor next to the king crabs, they wouldn’t hesitate because Monken seems to have Henry’s name sequenced far too little.
Steelers linebacker Patrick Queen told us he didn’t really like seafood, and even if Henry does, I’m sure he’d rather starve from a lack of crab than be starved of rushing carries in the Ravens’ offense.

Henry ignited the Ravens’ five-game winning streak in week 3, finishing with two touchdowns, 25 carries, and 151 rushing yards. Since then, Henry has posted games with 169 yards, 199 yards, 132 yards, and 92 yards versus the Cincinnati Bengals in week 5. His usage decreased because the Ravens trailed big and needed to pass.
With the Cleveland Browns ranked No. 19 in opponent rush yards per game, “Why in the blue crab” was Derrick Henry limited to just 11 carries? It’s becoming senseless.

It’s unlikely for Henry to turn crabby about the team’s shortcomings versus the Browns, but thanks to Monken’s run-game negligence, the Steelers have slipped ahead of the Ravens in the AFC North and will enjoy their bye unbothered in week 9.
