My analysis of C.J. Henderson and body language.

why in the world are we talking about tells for lying??  This kid must be ecstatic that he's gone from an 0-3 team to a contender. (which brings to mind how poor Dan Arnold must be feeling, with the reverse)  I give him credit for being as composed as he was --I know if it were I in his shoes right now, I'd be yelling "Hallelujah!"

Um, I was just replying to the comment 4corners makes, I don't think he was associating the behavior to Henderson and lying about anything. My reply was in general, not to the topic about henderson.

Wondering if the disconnect in Jacksonville was them wanting him to be more vocal, social, talkative, etc. and they tried to force it on him which made him pull back which would not be surprising in the testosterone fueled, alpha male filled field that is football.

The solution might just be as simple as leaving him the hell alone and letting him be himself and do his thing. With our focus on mental health and sports psychology that should be something they are able to identify.

There have been repeated issues with other coaches on staff, with Meyer’s temper and lack of familiarity with the ebbs and flows of the NFL calendar rubbing the Jacksonville Jaguars staff and players the wrong way, the sources said. There is a disconnect at times between the members of the staff with extensive pro experience and those who lack it, and morale has suffered as the outbursts have continued. His fiery remarks to players and coaches after games have already struck many as bizarre.

A kid who spent his whole life in Florida as a known introvert comes to a new city that he knows will be his new home, for better or worse, and people are ripping him for not being a better more excited interview?

Yea. I am kind of surprised they threw him in front of the media so soon. He seemed very uncomfortable, why did they do it?

Scientists, Doctors, Poets, Writers, Inventors, Pilots, War heroes/leaders…and (albeit rarley politics wise) Presidents like Lincoln are all introverted/dominantly introverted professions/introverted styled leaders.

Sadly our society looks down on it, but it’s is a fundamental and profoundly essential trait needed for humans to even exist and even excel. I blame the negative stigma to a lack of education and people’s insecurity. It’s rare a well educated person does not recognize/understand the above, at least in my experience.

It’s funny how this culture values extroverts and the loudest people in the room to the degree of self sacrifice and over looking the alternative. Countless examples.

My analysis:  he wants to play ball, feel like someone cares about his efforts, and otherwise be left alone. 

A la Chris Gamble. Not saying Henderson's at that level for sure, but Gamble was the same way and is arguably the best corner Carolina's had (especially when longevity is factored in), definitely top 3.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
