    How is there no blame for the organization that promised a new deal?

    Why no blame for the O-line? Why no blame for Hasselbeck and his INT? Why no blame for anyone on the defense?

    Why is it all CJ's fault?

    Look at the sub-title. "Your Opinion".
    Proof and arguments are for a court of law. Exchanging opinions are for a message board.

    a lame message board. arguments are what keeps this place going.

    My opinion is your all wasting your time exchaning opinions about whether Chris Johnson ruined our season or not. Stop crying so much, do something productive.

    How do you expect me to prove that? I do not have access to a time machine.

    Bottom line is we lost to Jacksonville by 2 measly points and CJ ran for a putrid 24 yards. I think it's safe to say assume that a CJ running at 100% likely could've easily been the difference.

    Considering he didn't run at 100% for another 8 weeks, what makes you think he would've been running at 100% had he not held out?

    Wait, how long was his holdout again?

    Let me ask you something else. What if we had let CJ walk, are we in a position to make the playoffs? Or even miss the playoffs by one game?

    Note, I'm not a CJ homer by any means, I was the one saying he was done and didn't give a ***** anymore. I just don't think you can blame this on his contract holdout alone. What if Hasselbeck didn't throw as many random interceptions? What if our defensive line was able to get more pressure? What if Munchak didn't tell the team to stop playing after the 2nd half against Cinci?

    CJ has a lot to do with us being in this situation - both the positive and the negative. We lost some games because of him and we won some games because of him. We're at 7-5 as a team. You take the good with the bad. At the end of the day the NFL is a business. Yes, CJ is greedy, it is what it is. He's now a Titan for life.

    What about the Bengals game that we gave away? How can you solely blame CJ's holdout on us missing the playoffs when there was another close game we lost?
