Chris Johnson rushed 16 times for 141 yards and a touchdown in Tennessee's Week 9 loss to the Bears, but also lost two fumbles.
He added four catches for four yards. Johnson was having a forsaken afternoon until early in the fourth quarter, where he found a seam and dashed 80 yards to the house. The 80-yard touchdown was the fifth of his career, and provided the final score in Tennessee's embarrassing 51-20 loss. Before his big scamper, Johnson had just 54 yards on 14 carries to go along with his two lost fumbles. The good news is, CJ?K was again running with purpose, rarely getting knocked down behind the line, and typically tacking on extra yardage. He's had 90-yard afternoons in five of his past six games, and has moved well beyond his embarrassing start to the season.
Even if the starters were in, if you're winning by 31 points...I don't care if Lombardi is your coach, your players are gonna coast. I doubt Chicago was blitzing at that point.
Garbage time is garbage time. When the game mattered CJ did what he did all year. Put up junk numbers. lol
14/54 before the game was a complete joke. I'm certainly convinced. xD
I didn't even mention the fumbles. Nice work! I'm so sad I dumped him 5 weeks ago now.
Yeah, but come on. What was he even doing in the game? Why risk injury when you're down 39 points?!?!? He's such a big part of that offense, but running is not considered the best strategy when you're down 39. You have to admit this was *absolutely ridiculous*.
