slyng1 Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Wow... that's an insane projection... Or is it? Our run defense is one of the worst in the league, Tennessee doesn't have a very good passing game, Johnson is a beast, Vince Young at QB (by most reports he hasn't played that bad, but i haven't seen any of the games) and Johnson appears to be on a bit of a roll. Seems like the perfect storm brewing for him. This is the same back that put up 45pts against Houston and has put up 3 100 yard games in a row including 225 vs. Jacksonville. Anyway, ESPN projects he'll get 177yards, and 3 TDs. I can see the yards but hope they're mistaken on the TDs. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numark Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 No, we are going to shut him down for the most part. Just watch, yards and TDs. White is the back who is going to break out for some long runs and TDs.... my prediction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Chris Johnson is master of super long runs. Bills defense is great at giving up super long runs. Ouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricojes Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Chris Johnson is master of super long runs.Bills defense is great at giving up super long runs. Ouch. We must stop the super long run, probably can get away with a long run or two, but the super long runs will kill us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoring is not hardy Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 We must stop the super long run, probably can get away with a long run or two, but the super long runs will kill us... As long as we don't give up any extra super long runs we may be ok. Maybe one super long run mixed in with a few long runs and a couple short long runs- that's my prediction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOTONE Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 189 all purpose and 3 TD's. Calling it now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GG Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 Looking on the other side of the ball, why wouldn't Fisher start off with Lendale White softening up an already weak and undersized run D, and then bring in CJ for his likely 300-yd outing?

Cash Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 With McGee out, Johnson is significantly faster than anyone on our defense. Like, fast enough to run right by them. My prediction: Pain. No, wait, that's Clubber Lang's prediction. My prediction is at least 2 TDs where no Bills defender touches Chris Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be hilarious if moving Scott to LB changed the whole landscape of our LB group. Not likely, but one can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't do that. We have to protect our high spot in the pass defense rankings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyng1 Posted November 13, 2009 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 I'm just glad I have CJ in both of my $ fantasy leagues! TRAITOR! Just kidding - that's a good hedge. If the bills win & Johnson gets shut down -- Awesome. If the Bills lose and Johnson gets 50 points, it makes the loss a bit more bearable. If the bills give up 300 on the ground, and still somehow get the win - that's a WIN-WIN for you (not so much for the bills run defense). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 Johnson has 19 points so far in my Yahoo! league. Seems like a good week to have him (and Byrd) on my roster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted November 15, 2009 Share Posted November 15, 2009 They were way off, he only had 35.2 points. At least something went well for me today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
