    a lot jumping off the Chris Johnson bandwagon? He is running agaisnt 8 and 9 man fronts and our offensive line isnt playing as well as last year. Defenses know stop CJ and the titans will more likely lose.

    Look at all the RBs that reached 2000, how buch did they fall off?

    and people are jumping on Javon Ringer because he broke some good runs when hes on the field. He is a good back up that has done well in his time but I'm pretty sure the D backs off when they don't see 28 in the back there.

    Our offense is not playing to their strengths at all and it doesn't help that they are SOOOO predictable.

    Probably a lot due to the way CJ talked himself up this offseason. He hyped himself like he was the greatest thing on earth. He's not. One good season and he started feeling himself. Huge mistake... now he looks like half the back he was last season.

    And they were stacking the box on him last year too. Only difference was he was much more decisive then. Now he's thinking way too much, tip-toeing to the sidelines.

    Maybe the D backs off Ringer because they don't know exactly where the ball is going when CJ isn't in.

    CJ just isn't as good as he thought he was. But I think HE hurt the way people look at him more than his production has.

    He's had 1 good season and 1 AMAZING season. He hyped himself up before last year and what happened? h has a 2500 yar season. He isnt being used like he was last year. whre are the screens to CJ at? Where are the routes where he acts like hes going to block and then he gets a quick dump off and goes for the frst or the TD? He might not e the best PURE RB but he is the best all around Offensive weapon and he is not being use right. He isnt running as well as last year but this this isnt the same offensive line either. What can he do whenthere are 3 people tring to tackle him behind the line/

    we need to get the spotlight off CJ, all of last year and the start of this year has been nothing but CJ this and CJ that. Fisher is making us live up to that hype by trying to kill CJ and use him in desperate situations.

    We need to stop thinking this is a run first team cause this year we are not a run first team if Fisher doesnt change his ways we gonna go down burning. Cj has gotten more attention from defenses that he wanted. Teams just arent gonna let it happen this year. Fisher needs to cut back on CJ, the media needs to back off CJ, the fans need to stop telling other teams fans that CJ gonna run all over them.

    We need to be a pass first team for the rest of the season, change the way defenses prepare for us. thats why Texans RB Foster is having a huge year, they arent making a big deal out of him and the Texans can get it done through the air.

    VY,Britt,Nate and Cook need to take over..... Im sure Fisher is frustrated that CJ cant win every game but it his own Fault. We must become more balanced starting in week 5.

    Chris Johnson will be fine. He's coming off a historic year. He was bound to regress a bit. Plus, he was dumb enough to set expectations unrealistically high (by saying he would rush for 2500). CJ has to face stacked boxes on every play and Fisher is running him into the ground. As a result of his workload, he looks to be a bit hurt and that has led to him being less decisive when it comes to hitting the hole. Things will turn around eventually. It would help a lot if the Titans had anyone else on the offense who scared other teams.

    I repeat: Chris Johnson will be fine.

    Continue to feed CJ passes etc. - get him into the open field but get Ringer in there alot more from behind the line- at least until he is rendered ineffective..

    do not continue to feed Cj passes, thats what WR's are for. you guys have the same mentality that Fisher has. This is not about CJ! It's a team game and every player should be used. we need to continue to feed Britt the ball. Give him 12 passes a game. He needs to learn that we need him. We are 2-2 cause we are unbalanced on offense.
