Yes, I believe his days of missing games due to injury are done. However, there's now way to say that he won't have some freak injury from a tackle or whatever. But Ronnie is not injury prone...the circumstances he played with, made him more likely to be injured.
What I mean is that with a 20-something ranked offense, and a top 7 rushing offense...what do you think the opposing D is going to focus on more? The run of course, loading up the box, assigning the LB's to attack Ronnie or Ricky rather than focusing on TE coverage or standing in the zone. For several years we've always been lacking something in the passing game, QB or WR.
But now with Henne coming into his 2nd yr more educated and experienced, after a good 1st season with his only faults being 1st year glitches...misreading routes, not identifying hidden coverage schemes, knowing when to take a sack, throw it out of bounds, or chance it by throwing it to the WR. All things that are of no concern, he'll be so much better in all those areas, and the chancing it with the WR while under pressure he was actually good with that decision, but Ginn let him down a lot by not attacking the ball or going the extra step to catch the ball. With Brandon, that'll be the last thing he'll have to worry about, bc Brandon will attack the ball making sure he catches it, so Henne will get hit but Brandon will make sure it wasn't for no reason.
Henne, with Marshall - Bess - Hartline - Turner - Fasano (hopefully, the good version) -and R & R coming out of the backfield makes our passing offense really really good, demanding the opposing D to play pass/rush 50/50 as best they can. Last year was more like 20/80, which is why Ronnie was prone to injury, has nothing to do with the number of carries, it has to do with running into a 5 to 6 man front, & a LB zooming in on him. Those days are over, bc if they don't have guys playing the pass...Henne will pick them apart with 7-25+ yd passes to Brandon, 5-15 yd slants to Bess or Hartline, and 10 yd in/out routes to Fasano/Haynos, plus a Ronnie or Ricky for a screen. So we don't have to depend on the run nearly as much, and Ronnie & Ricky will see a lot bigger holes to run thru, & more open field running. And Marshall will lay someone out on an open field block for R & R, unlike Ginn who just got out of the way.
An elite, balanced, deadly offense is what we have...More TD's, less FG's. Can't wait to see this team. Ronnie will be ok, his injury risk has greatly depreciated with the new Offense.
