I think Chris Johnson is back. Maybe. CJ2K looked explosive and not like a rich running back bracing for contact this past weekend. If there is one potential playoff team who no one is talking about, it's Tennessee. What a job by Mike Munchak, taking over for the NFL's longest tenured coach in Jeff Fisher, with a new quarterback, and with his best player in a difficult holdout situation. Then he lost his best option in the passing game in wideout Kenny Britt. Not to mention, the lockout was hardest on new head coaches, who had no OTAs to implement their plan. Kudos to Munchak. |

No one seems to be talking about the Titans but for two straight weeks Chris Johnson has looked like the old Chris Johnson. If that's the case the rest of the year, this is a serious playoff contender. |

CJ2K is finally playing up to his contract, and it may be just in time. With two of their last four games being against the Colts and Jaguars, they will at least finish the season with nine wins. It will probably take 10 to get in the playoffs though, and that means they will need to steal a win against either the Saints or the Texans. It will be interesting to see if the Texans go all in during their Week 17 matchup. |
