Thursday Night Football Recap

Oct 12, 2012

Rob Bironas kicked a 40-yard field goal as time expired and the Tennessee Titans defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 26-23. I gotta say, I thought Chris Johnson needed to have a good game for the Titans to win, and he did. 19 carries for 91 yards isn't anything to brag about, but it was just what they needed to win. For Johnson on the other hand, he needed more. He needed a huge game to convince his doubters that he was still the same Chris Johnson. I'm starting to think that he's either A) hurt and not telling anyone or B) not who we thought he was. Nowadays, anybody can rush for 91 yards in a game every once in a while. There were too many opportunities during this game where the hole opened up and i thought he'd scurry down the field for a 40 or 50 yard gain like he used to just on pure speed, but instead he ran up behind his offensive lineman and shuffled for a 10-12 yard gain. This next game against Buffalo should be a tell tale sign of things to come as they're in the top 3 worst ranked rush defenses.
