Get on the bus with NFL players Will Compton & Taylor Lewan! The Boys are letting you in on their hilarious, high-energy (and often heartfelt) conversations. Topics range from exclusive stories to active player perspectives to out-of-left-field hot takes on things you and your friends only discuss behind closed doors. Sometimes they chat with a guest, sometimes it's just the two of them, but it's always a good time when you're Bussin' With The Boys.

And yes, this is the podcast where Mike Vrabel said he'd cut his piece off for a Super Bowl.

    Ryan Clark isn’t wrong. Henry doesn’t run like a power back. Imagine if Henry ran the way Marshawn runs.
  • Henry runs str8 up and doesn't run behind his pads.....simple!! That's RC's point, but he is not saying it correctly bc he's making it about what he would do.
  • @Eatpunch
    He’s right. People only call him a power back just because he’s big.
  • @HISHAM931
    RC really said “Bussin in the Boys” 😂😂😂😂
  • Ryan is right of his assessment of Derek. People forget that Tennessee had to get Eddie George to talk to Derek about using his size and running through holes that were not huge like college because he was tip toeing through holes even though he 250lb his first few years in the league.He changed his game up after that. Derek is a big fast slasher with a great stiff arm for smaller guys. He is not a power back who is going run over linebackers.
  • @amsf1
    He's a smart back and by avoiding those bone crushing runs hes going to be able to have longevity. The game is constantly changing and he doesn't have a need to be an Alstott, Cambell or Bettis. Look at the damage Earl Campbell sustained. He should be lauded for that
  • @frankl3518
    I'm a Ravens fan. I remember Ryan Clark vividly. He was violent. Knockout hitter and I 100% agree with what he's saying about Henry. Great stiff arm. Long speed. But he doesn't lower his pads and run through guys much. I think Nick Chubb is the best back in the league. Ecspecially as a pure runner. Has it all.
  • @bnjamnvi
    I think what RC is trying to say is Derrick doesn’t run compact, ready to absorb and push like a Jerome Bettis which makes sense
  • RC is absolutely right with his accessments about Henry when he is in the hole, Fred Taylor said it the best "HE IS A STRIDER" once Henry gets rolling it's a wrap.
  • He's not lying, he runs high and not behind his pads, but it's because he's so tall. It's hard to get low and deliver a blow being 6'4
  • @aldoraine1400
    What he’s saying is Derrick Henry is tall, has a high center of gravity, and takes longer to get up to speed and if you hit him low before he climbs speed you can drop him like it’s nothing and that’s the truth. Doesn’t mean he’s not good but he’s just a different type of back
  • @KLau089
    22 really isn’t a power bruising runningback. He’s got a great stiff arm, but he really isn’t running guys over in the hole. With that being said though, his style with his size and defences being smaller today, will probably prolong his career.
  • @ejbillsnap7481
    You can have heated debates and still not make or take it personally. Love shows like this
  • @gnixon3085
    yo how the HELL have i been sleeping on this show. this is amazing discussion. players need to continue to take over the sports take radio. RC, shannon sharpe, key, Dan O, Pat McAfee, etc. I love it.
  • @donmerriman6320
    I get what Ryan is saying. I saw Marshawn absolutely explode through a DT. I would fear Marshawn than I would Derrick Henry.
  • @randy7796
    RC is right. It's hard to be a power back when you're so tall. The main factor in being able to run through tacklers head on is the degree to which the shoulder pads can be lowered for leverage. Without leverage, he isn't getting any push. That's why a LB like Robert Spillaine can stop him in his tracks, even if it hurts like hell to run into +240lbs.
  • Fred Taylor speaking facts. Also RC always thought he could kill anybody, and did, and himself. So I believe it would be a hell of a collision.
  • @BennVai
    Man awesome concept. Chat with the boys at the back of the bus. Mad.
  • @irajohnson5069
    This what I like.. educating us on how running back supposed to be... you guys should just run through the list of football 11 positions
