AP Photo/Wade PayneTennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson is beyond frustrated and is beginning to lash out verbally.Johnson has so far had 21 yards on 19 total carries in two games this season.
The great CJ2K is averaging less than a yard a carry right now and has a message for his teammates, according to the Tennessean.
“The run game ain’t working,” Johnson said. “We just aren’t executing the plays. I don’t know why we’re not.”
People need to step up and do their job. They don’t need to let people beat them. It don’t matter who the opposing defense is, you can’t let your guy beat you. You just can’t give up plays. You have to make plays like they make plays. I can’t speak for the defense. I can only speak for the offense.”
Johnson, who played yesterday despite the passing of his grandmother, is feeling the heat from all circles. Pundits suggest he’s cashed it in after getting a huge deal and no longer has the heart. Some are suggesting that he’s not as good or as well all think he is.
Whatever the problem may be, everyone needs to do their job.
