Chris Johnson appreciation thread

While this thread may also turn into yet another BS fest where people are jumping down each other's throats, I thought it would be nice to be reminded of why many fans (if not most) want CJ on the field in a Titans uniform.

First video, the one that got me on the bandwagon back in early 08:

Second video, 08 & 09 highlights:

On my favorite's toolbar I keep a folder titled CJ and have all my favorite highlights of him.

I like this one especially not because it was a TD or something. but because the corner just straight up turns around and sprints away from CJ.

Great idea. CJ is a special talent and the Titans are fortunate to have him on the team.

CJ is a great player and the Titans need him.

It's just the whole business aspect of his holdout is what has me turned off.

Its a common reaction for those who watch professional sports, imo.

People get over it eventually

It's not like this CJ thing is the only contract dispute to ever happen

Barry Sanders was my favorite player before we had a team. CJ is this generation's Barry Sanders and I definitely appreciate having him play for us.

In playing style or ability? He might be reaching that level of ability but their styles aren't similar at all. CJ is much closer to a smaller/faster LT.

Show hilites from last year or we might as well start posting Earl vids.

Ah what the hell I'll do it anyway:

EARL.

That was a Man's RB.

The speed, size, power and will.

Unbelievable.

I hear you. I think fans, especially fans on this board considering the astuteness of a number of its posters, sometimes get too into the business side of the NFL. It's almost like they're arguing as general managers or agents instead of as fans.

I just think there's a time to talk about the business side and a time to just enjoy the game. And that's the point of these videos... just to remind everyone WHY they enjoy watching CJ run the ball so stinkin' much.

Hell, man... show em'. This thread doesn't just have to be about CJ. It could be about ALL Titan/Oiler RB's... even Eddie George. :D
