Titans made a Hugh mistake paying Chris Johnson

[paranoyd androyd]

don't care now that he's paid

[paco]

Today: 9 rush 16 yards

[Holtgetsback]

guy will be out of the league and bankrupt in 2 years

guy will be out of the league and bankrupt in 2 years

He will be a stunt double for Lil Wayne

[ttwarrior1]

well what do u expect with their bad receivers, o line and hasselback

[paco]

Look whos sitting on the bench now?

Javon Ringer has more yards than CJ on 2 carries

[The Seer]

I agree, Ringer is their best option. He's more of an NFL back. Hasselback is the best QB they've had in years but it looks like once Britt went down, they don't have any down the field threats.

[TexansFan]

Today: 9 rush 16 yards

Hey, don't cheat the guy, he ended up with 10 carries for 18 yards.

[paco]

Looks like coaching and management agreeing with me. Talks of benching Chris Johnson and giving Javon Ringer the starting jobs already surfacing

Johnson has not went over 55 yards in any game yet.

[k13]

Good Call Paco.

[EmpireMaker]

he didn't work out at all during the contract holdout

[BigDan]

He is like a skinny Albert Haynesworth..He got these guys good, straight paid. workouts or not that kid damn sure aint looking to blast thru holes

[Mr KLC]

I told everybody from the start that they should have just traded the guy. Running backs are the last position that you want to invest big money in this league. They have one of the shortest career spans, and the bad thing is that you don't know when the tread is coming off the tires most of the time. How many times in fantasy football have we seen a running back go down, and then their back up comes in and does well? This kid was looking for the one big contract. He already had the best season of his career two years ago, so why invest so much money into anything that is going to be less?

[gimpy]

Averaging 3.0 yards a carry so far this year.

His own fault man. He didn't want to play, and kept trying to milk the Titties because he's the same old song:

"Washed Up"
-T.O.

[hawley]

LAWL. anther over-reaction thread about a player. The guy missed all of training camp. He will be fine.

[Ace_of_Spades]

Today: 9 rush 16 yards

Wow, thats really awful.

[jjgold]

Might be biggest bust in NFL history

Titans actually want to bench him

[FlipK11]

cheaper true.... better? you are insane

How can you stick up for this guy? He hasn't gone for more than 50 yards in a game since week 1 2010. He is a sellout, lazy, washed up bonehead. And i LOVE all the people that started him in their fantasy leagues this past week actually expecting him to do something. Hope ya enjoyed your 6.6 points!

[seaborneq]

his drop-off last season should have been enough for the team to pay him less than what they did. On top of that the guy is an asshole and can't put a sentence together without breaking every rule in the English language

Name just one player who didn't have a drop off after rushing for 2000+ yard or the most ever yards in history from scrimmage? All I need is one for you statement to be fractionally accurate. Otherwise you are full of shit. Nobody builds on a 2000 yard season or the most ever total yards from scrimmage.

[Swinging Johnson]

Who's Hugh?

[4TH AND STUPID]

well what do u expect with their bad receivers, o line and hasselback

only sharp post in this entire thread.

[Weeton]

Looks like coaching and management agreeing with me. Talks of benching Chris Johnson and giving Javon Ringer the starting jobs already surfacing

Johnson has not went over 55 yards in any game yet.

Not true, he rushed 100+ against Cleveland. Not that that's saying much. He's still weak sauce this season.

[No coincidences]

It's hard to justify a huge NFL contract for any RB these days.

Guys have a limited shelf life. If the Vikes were smart, they'd trade Peterson while he's still in his "prime."

[Br0nxer]

Guy got paid

Operation Shutdown

[gohabsgo]

There is an article about this in the very serious magazine "the economist" .

Could very well lead them to the playoffs

Don't snooze on Titans in playoff race

Chris Johnson was subject to armchair psychologists and fantasy football experts coast to coast for most of the season as he plucked his way to a sub-three-yard rushing average early in the season.

No more. For whatever reason, Johnson has been explosive the past two weeks, as he has totaled 343 rushing yards (he had only 509 in the first 10 games) and two touchdowns, both coming in the Titans' 23-17 win in Buffalo on Sunday.

[paco]

^^ it was bufflao lol. U can prolly rush for 100 yards on the Bills right now

[paco]

I was willing to trade Chris Johnson off my fantasy team for a #1 kicker

[jjgold]

These guys are hard to figure out, you just do not know if there are trying or not half of the time or have agendas

I guess he was tired of being a real embarrassment to the league and his team

[psufan]

I completely agree with this post. I'm from TN, had a taste of the East Coast, and consider myself a hybrid Titans/Nittany Lions fan. Titans Management got hustled on this one. I just hope they make the playoffs.

[icancount2one]

Not working out with your team costs you. Just ask fat Albert Haynesworth. CJ2K obviously can play way better than he did in the first 8 weeks, but it's possible he'll never be the same guy again.

[daimoshokage]

Fukking idiot!!!!!!!!!!!! This fukking dumbfukk hamburger is from detroit, you know what to expect.. Stupidity!!!!

[beerman2619]

Johnson is done saints will shut him down
