DMN: Former 2,000-yard rusher Chris Johnson believes he’d fit well in Dallas; ‘Cowboys, come holler

[EMMITTnROY]

I'd just have Chris Johnson run a 40. If he can still run a 4.45 or faster, then sign him. If not, don't.

 

[BAZ]

Typical? He was the Jets' leading rusher last year?!?!? But there's somehow just going to trade him to Dallas because you want them to? Please stop!

I've provided you with the clear, truthful numbers while you've thrown a tantrum because they run counter to your opinions. Again, blame the underachieving McFadden, not me.

Don't bother, what one team does with its' players has nothing to do with what another one does.

If 8,000 yards plus and a 3-time Pro Bowler and 1-time All-Pro is a 'proven failure', then McFadden, with half the yards and 0 Pro Bowls is less than a failure, he's a never was.

And I'll take a running back who can actually run the ball. But you keeping digging this hole and making yourself look worse all the time.

They got Stacey and Vereen, Ivory didn't begin the year as a starter so projecting him as one this year is just a guess, dumb.

Truthful numbers? How were they last season? Similar? big difference....

Look you are a tool that seems to think CJ is a savior based on things he did years ago, hes not a inside runner, can't pass protect, has been running to darkness for years. But hey he once got 2000 yards and has a cool nickname so it can't be all bad right?

You have brought nothing and keep slapping yourself on the back like it's an achievement.

You don't even know how much he's been working out since he got shot. He wants to be a Cowboy and you jump all over his D, settle down.

 

[Stash]

It would be a big mistake if they do not look into bringing in CJ here to compete. He may not be Adrian Peterson. But he is a much better prospect than McFadden - which I think is a bust.

The FO should be focusing on getting to the Superbowl and stop this nonsense of trying to help out a fellow Arkansas alumni.

Agreed. You don't have to cut McFadden, just don't be forced to count on him.

 

[locked&loaded]

Here is what you said:

"Mcfadden is younger and has a little over double the yards for his career that Cj had in his biggest year."

I'm not accusing you. I know what you said and what you said is wrong. CJ has more than double the yardage output as McFadden and facts prove it. Stop making stuff up.

You arent comprehending what he is saying. But, I dont blame you because it is a weird point to bring up and the way he presented it is pretty scrambled.

 

[BAZ]

LOL that actually makes McFadden look bad. You just scored a goal for the other team.

My point was he has a lot less miles on his younger body. His lack of productivity is a problem, but his legs are at least not burnt out.

Weird point which really doesn't make a point. CJ has been more productive than McFadden has been throughout his career. He is still healthy and is plenty fast. There is no reason NOT to bring him in to take a look.

If you want to talk lack of productivity here it seems like McFadden is a bigger risk. Not CJ.

 

[WoodysGirl]

No more personal attacks and name calling!!!

 

[sureletsrace]

This offensive line doesn't run the ball last time I checked. Stick a JAG back there and you will find that out real quick.

Highly doubtful. 900 years before contact, and let's say the JAG manages to eek out 200 extra yards. That's an 1,100yd rusher.

Now, in terms of pass blocking and receiving, I can understand the concern.

I would kick the tires on this one.

 

[slick325]

CJ2k was asked a loaded question by a TMZ cameraman who probably is a 'Boys fan. It's not like the cameraman asked..."What team do you think you'd be a good fit with CJ?" and CJ2k responded..."Dallas. I'd fit really good there...Dallas come holla at me." That response to that question would scream....Chris Johnson wants to be a Cowboy.

He wants to be employed in the NFL and he would have said the same answer had the reporter mentioned the Pats or Giants or...much ado about nothing folks.

Me, too. Right on down the street.

AT 23 Randle is likely to improve from age 22. He likely will be improving the next 4 years given his age.

Maybe, if he grows a brain!!!

 

[iceberg]

I'm not really sure, but do you think I have a 'poxy attitude'?

Whatever it is, it doesn't sound good...



Maybe I should see a doctor?

just what kind of doctor sees a patient with a "poxy" problem? man, you'll be googling for hours.

hopefully then next time he won't get caught by a mall cop for stealing underwear. .....

I'm not worried about them as much now that the new training season has started. Like Marinellis says "if you love football, it can change your life." It's the last several months in the wilderness that are a concern.

 

[Beast_from_East]

If anyone is curious, he is 29 years old and last season was the first since his rookie year (2008) that he fell short of rushing for over 1000 yards.

McFadden hasn't seen a 1000 yards in 6/7 seasons.

CJ also averaged about a yard per carry more than McFadden

Just saying
