Hey Deion, the Titians paid the man. Look what happened, this is why teams wait to PAY THE MAN.

Chris Johnson is either DONE or he’s intentionally sabotaging the team–which is what Marshall Faulk suggested he might doing in key losses last year.

Who are these people putting thumbs down when others call out CJ, his family members?!

Im through with CJ I was probably one of the last people still having some what of an inkling of faith, but that is gone.

If Irvin and Sanders never uttered another word on broadcast TV, e would be all the better for it.

Yeah, we sure aren’t hearing much from Mr. Big Mouth Michael Irvin these days. CJ has demonstrated through past behavior that he is a turd, so the Titans are getting what they deserved.

CJ rushed for 72 feet yesterday. If you want to make the numbers look big

After he is cut his money will dwindle and he’ll be hungry again. Someone will give him a chance. He’ll get some of his old speed and effort back at that point, but it will be far too late to salvage what looked like it could be a great career.

Either way the over under on this guy being bankrupt should be set at about 6 years.

Wait – what?? The Titans players didn’t all suddenly become personally accountable and responsible the day Vince Young was shipped out of town???

Color me SHOCKED (not).

Hey – maybe – just maybe – that dude with a career .620 winning percentage can actually play some QB (hint, hint, Arizona, Buffalo, KC, Jets, Raiders, etc, etc).

Go back three years, and ask yourself this question: Which back is more likely to sign a big contract and disappear, Chris Johnson or Marshawn Lynch?

Admit it, you’d have answered Lynch, who is currently on pace for a 1600 yard season, while CJ2YPC, well…..

Sure, you say you’re only as good as your O-line…well, did your O-line cause you to fumble yesterday?

Please think about Chris Johnson the next time you hear some ex-NFL player on TV say, “Just pay the man”.

This is the problem on the owners side. You hear the players/agents constantly harp on “out-performing” their contracts and they want a ton of money up front.

Well, what about when they “under-perform” their contracts? Do you ever see them give money back?

Is Darrell Revis giving any money back that he held out for. Is it the Jet’s fault that he got hurt? What is Revis contributing? What is Chris Johnson? Gaither? You can go on and on.

I remember when Johnson claimed to be better than Adrian Peterson. Peterson does his job and was rewarded. Johnson held out and cried for more money. Peterson worked harder than he had to in order to get back and play the game he loves at the highest level. Had Johnson had the same injury Peterson did, he would be out the whole season, not playing at an all pro level from week one like Peterson has. Character…can’t put a price on that. There are currently 31 NFL teams with a better starting RB than the Titans. Ouch.

Suck to have a running back who can’t accept responsibility when he isn’t playing well. I don’t see any other top running backs doing this.

Let us all remember this day the next time some idiot says a player out played his rookie contract. No such animal. When you sign a contract you agree to do something for a set reward. If you do a great job, fine. If you fail to produce ok, we will remember this next time we talk about your next contract. If you have one great year, you can not say you over played your deal unless you are willing to give money back when you do not produce.

Cares more about him, his grills and hair than his responsibilities to his team and mates. Hope he saved some of his ill-gotten-fortune, because he is done after he is cut this year.

dude should wear a mask when he goes to the bank, cause it’s outright theft he’s doing to the titans.

Johnson should be sued for breach of contract. Loser.

Johnson has stunk for a couple years. Why are people shocked about this?
Have you ever seen him interviewed? Give that guy a tank full of money and you really wonder why he stinks now.
And he will be cut after the season due to the huge cap number and broke in 5 years. Book it.
