firstandgoal Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 He looks horible this week, just like he did last week and the week before. I know he's a much better player than he heas been, and it's not just his o-line. e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isleseeya Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 agreed ...i think a long hard year for him as the O line not great and nowhere what it was in past years ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwaterboy Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 He is not running with authority or power. His screen passes are terrible and it doesn't look like he is much into the game. Even with a chance to make the playoffs and calling out his teamates he needs to step it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunther Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 LJ got in the end zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagle2003 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 2 of his last 3 runs went for 17 and 18 yards. Looks pretty good as long as the blocking is there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerbraves Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Approaching 100 yds rushing and already got one TD. Not bad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwaterboy Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 He should be above 100 by now against the Oakland run defense.....He needs a fullback real bad.......Tony Richardson please come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MERLINS Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hes getting tired, this is his first full load / full season after all and he takes alot of punishment with out a FB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerbraves Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hes getting tired, this is his first full load / full season after all and he takes alot of punishment with out a FB. Would think most teams would love to have a RB as tired as LJ. Pretty decent performance in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGrunt Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Hes getting tired, this is his first full load / full season after all and he takes alot of punishment with out a FB. He only got 135 yards and a TD on 31 carries. I sure hope KC can finally fix their FB problem, or we might see more tired perfomances like this in the future.

jackshi17 Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 He had several passes thrown at his feet. He ended up with 135 yds and a TD. He also set the record for most carries/season for Kansas City ( broke the Nigerian Nightmare's record). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Ryan Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 As great as he is, he can put 100 on just about anyone. But he hasnt looked into it the past 2 weeks. Ran straight up most of tonight, and didnt even attempt to catch a few of those screen passes, though one was obviously at his feet. Ill take the 19.7 pts, but I hoped for more vs Oakland. At least 30 pts, 150 rush yards, 2 catches, 20 yards rec, and 2 TD's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 If Johnson looks tired at all, it may have something to do with the 383 carries he had this year already. He had 31 carries tonight and if he does that again against the Jaguars next Sunday he would have 414 carries or 4 more than anyone else in NFL history (record = Jamal Anderson, 410) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McBoog Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 This is not a shock to me. His running style and being an unproven back for a whole season was a recipe for this type of end-season let down. I think the wear-and-tear plus preassure of having to carry a team that is just not what it was a few years ago has gotten to the kid. It was crazy to me to see all the "experts" translate his half season of work, when he was fresh and hungry, into a full NFL season of being "the guy". Add to this a depleated O-line, I am surprised that he has had this good of a season. I thought LJ would be a solid top three fantasy pick, but I still had LT #1 (though I didn't see this type of season). LT had proven he can perform with a bad team and this year the ONLY factor was an unproven (not rookie) QB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
