The guy is real good.

I mean, honestly, he breaks a 60 yard run every week.

I still think Manning and Brees have a leg up on Johnson.

After all, they actually have winning records.

They're about to be .500

And if CJ gets 2000 yards this season, he’ll be hard to ignore come MVP time.

nah

its between Peyton, Brees and Favre

you could have 3 15+ win ballclubs

If they go 8-8 or 9-7...

…And CJ busts 2 grand, he’ll be right there w/Brees and Manning.

by IFChris on Dec 6, 2009 1:00 PM EST up reply actions  

So if Chris Johnson breaks the single season rushing record and the Titans make the playoffs, he won’t win because of 3 15 win teams? Not the Most Valuable Team award…

You take a 2000 yard rusher away from Vince Young

And watch what happens. Brees and Manning have talent up and down the roster on the offensive side. Not true for the Titans.

Pierre Thomas? Reggie Bush? Jeremy Shockey? That’s a lot of good talent to spread the ball around to — much more than Tennessee has on offense.

next years draft we need a high pick on a play maker for the offence. Becaues we have young playmakers and stars on the D we need to restock this offence

Tries to bounce it outside but is contained for 0 yards.

FYI on Palmer... something to watch for.

Palmer is giving the plays away. When he hands off, he only uses his right hand. When he does play action, he uses both hands. Watch. He’s tipping the play between rush and play action.

This is so frustrating to watch.

I’m not talking about the defense, either. Our D is so freaking good…I wish the offense could ever give them a sizeable lead.

Could you imagine this what this defense could do if they ever had a 17-point lead to work with? There’d be bodybags on standby.
