The Chris Johnson Hype machine (3 Viewers)

[Football Jones]

LenDale with the TD. VY got hurt a few plays earlier. Collins came in & threw a strike (not sure who caught it) to get down close to the GL.

 

[Todem]

Ok CJ3 breathen...lets project week one stats for our beloved rookie sensation to be.

Chris has a tough match-up....at least on paper with Jacksonville .

I project:

13 Carries for 60 Yards 1TD

5 receptions for 40 yards

In PPR scoring that would equal 21 points.

Fixed.

Pat on the back...he scored 21.70 points this week.Any questions about CJ3 being a legit PPR stud?

On to wek 2 CJ3 owners!!!

After playing against one of the best defenses in the NFL? The best is yet to come, he is a buy low right now!!!!

No way his owner gives him up without getting a huge return. He was extremely impressive today and like you said, that was a terrific defense he faced. He just needs to stay healthy. If he can do that, he'll be a lock for RB2 production this season. He really is a terrific talent.

Pont being if he is anything, it is buy low, not sell high. Going to be crazy to see what he does against the Bengals next week. Hope his BMI is still good enough then.

Yes, his BMI will still be good enough to lose half the carries to LenDale White. Johnson had a great debut and the high number of touches is encouraging, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. He still appears to be basically what he was advertised as: a dynamic RBBC back.

 

[notdarkyet]

I nearly started him ahead of Turner. That would have sucked. Between ADP, Jacobs, Turner and only being able to start 2, I dont know how he can crack the lineup outside of bye replacements.

Only a trip to the locker romm prevented him from getting a 60-70% carry advantage. White got half his carries at the end after CJ went out and the titans were basically running the clock.

If you watched the game, it was pretty obvious who the best RB for the Titans was. The fact he started and was heavily involved right from the outset and fared extremely well against a tough Jacksonville defense only bodes well for his future production in my opinion. Even if he remains in a RBBC situation, he still has strong RB2 potential (especially in PPR formats) and chances are few people drafted him as their RB2. So he represents value and possibly tremendous value. Right now, his floor looks to be a solid RB2. I doubt too many Johnson owners are going to argue with that.

Do you see why this might be cause for concern moving forward?One of the reasons why people are reluctant to buy into the idea of a low BMI workhorse is because few low BMI backs have demonstrated the ability to stay healthy over a large workload. The fact that Chris Johnson wasn't able to hold up to the pounding today might be a sign of things to come. Johnson looks like a great option in PPR leagues, but he didn't show anything today that we didn't already know he could do. Can he become the true starter for Tennessee? Can he hold up to the pounding of 15-20 touches per week? Will he continue to lose goal line opportunities to White? These are the big questions moving forward. We probably won't know the answers for quite a while.

 

[packersfan]

I'd say running for 93 yards despite sharing time against one of the league's best run defenses was pretty darn impressive.

But that's me.

and i love all the posters who got on here saying "no way you can start him over Bush"LOL

Looks like those who started Bush are having the last laugh.

touche!i spoke before i saw CJ3 injured and going to the lockerroom!guess they woulda still been close in points though after they gave Bush the TD when he went OOB

There is absolutely no truth that smaller players are more injury prone than smaller players.I think you are in denial if you think CJ is not the #1 back for the Titans. Honestly, if you had a choice right now, you would have to take CJ over Mendenhall in a dynasty league, wouldnt you?

 

[EBF]

There is absolutely no truth that smaller players are more injury prone than smaller players.

I disagree. I think the fact that there are very few successful thin RBs in the NFL says something about the ability of thin RBs to succeed in the NFL.

I think you are in denial if you think CJ is not the #1 back for the Titans.

He's definitely the best back they have. That doesn't make him a workhorse. He needs to show that he can stay healthy with a heavy workload. If not, he'll continue to lose a significant chunk of the touches to a bigger back.

Honestly, if you had a choice right now, you would have to take CJ over Mendenhall in a dynasty league, wouldnt you?

In a PPR it might be hard to turn down the immediate points, but Mendenhall has a better chance of being a 300+ touch back someday.

You might be waiting a long time for Mendenhall, he looks like he wil be playing 2nd fiddle to Fast Willie for a while. He might end up being more of an RBBC than CJ.

I was just having fun. I'm a big Chris Johnson fan and he looked damn good today, but Bush is a stud in PPR formats. He was a monster again today.

All I can say is thankyou Football Guys Podcast for pounding Chris Johnson into my head, I grabbed.. I did not start him this week.. but I think LJ might be riding the bench soon

Interesting week 1 game for CJ3, I look forward to starting him in week 2 against the Bengals.

 

[EBF]

You might be waiting a long time for Mendenhall, he looks like he wil be playing 2nd fiddle to Fast Willie for a while. He might end up being more of an RBBC than CJ.

Some backs are in RBBC situations because they're stuck alongside a talented back. Some backs are in RBBC situations because they don't have the all around skill set needed to be an every down guy. I think Mendenhall/Stewart are in the first category whereas Johnson is probably in the second.

Johnson is in a RBBC because White rushed for over 1,000 yards and (like him or not) was a big part of the Titans' offensive success last season. Fisher isn't going to kick him to the curb, no matter how talented Johnson may be. But it's clear based on what we saw today that Johnson is a major factor in the offense and frankly, I think losing Young (assuming Young is lost for any period of time) will only help him. Young is a horrible passer and while Collins isn't anything great, he does bring the dimension of throwing the ball that a defense must at least be conscious of. That should help open up more running lanes for Johnson (and White). Plus, the fact Collins can complete a forward pass could result in Johnson getting a few more receptions a game.The only thing I see slowing Johnson down is an injury - but you can say that about every RB in the NFL.

And all backs will get the ball more no matter what if their talent dictates it. CJ is clealry the best back on the Titans, and they will get him the ball as much as possible. He was clearly the man today, and White will be the change of pace back, getting most his carries like today, at the end of the game to run the clock. I dont think you should put Stewart and Mendenhall in the same sentence, one is clearly better than the other.

I did watch the game. I've been arguing in favor of how Johnson looked and what his potential is for the rest of this season. I think White will continue to have a healthy sized role because he does bring a power element the Titans like. But it's clear Johnson is a huge part of what the Titans want to do offensively.

[Avery]

This might not be relevant to the discussion, but I just ran this thread through a word count and here are EBF's 'BMI' posting stats:

Number of times unique appearances of 'BMI' in an EBF post in this thread: 86

Record number of times EBF has typed 'BMI' in a single post: 10 (hit that mark twice)

I have no idea why I find this interesting, besides the obvious mark of something bordering on obsessive.

Not being an every down guy isn't going to matter.I drafted him / traded for him not caring if he ever becomes a 20 touch guy. But I did get him thinking he'll outscore most 20-touch guys.

 

[Jason Wood]

A nice way to start his career

 

[Our Gang]

I know it is early, but I drafted him at 1.4 in Dynasty Rookie Draft

It feels good to have been so high on this kid and see him not only excel, but also be utilized in the ways we've been discussing. Yes, he caught passes but he also ran the ball REALLY well.

He plays REALLY fast. Puts a lot of pressure on the D and looks like he can break nearly every time he touches the ball...

 

[Native]

Just steppping back to the computer now - was it confirmed that he only had cramps at the end of the game? Anything else being reported?

 

[slapaho]

Wow, where are all the haters? Dude looks good, seriously good. D's are gonna have their hands full.

What is the latest on his leg?

Got Johnson in 2 of 2 leagues round 6ish in both, what a steal!

 

[shader]

His leg is fine. He had cramps. It was smoking hot in the stands. Virtually all the people in the stands were fanning themselves the whole game. Like a sauna in there.

I think it looks really good for him that he did this against the Jags. The Jags defense was hard-hitting and ferocious, and he still looked great.

He's going to rip Cincy to shreds next week.
