Would the Titans have won either of their last 2 games without CJ?

Yeah but a player with 4.24 to 4.38 speed, THAT CAN CUT ON A DIME, can be used to force the hand of the defense.

We are starting to see some creativity.....which ISN"T a gimmick.

Like I stated earlier in the year, if the Titans are serious about coaching up our oline, we need to keep CJ. If not trade him. It isn't the running back's job to actually create the holes...it's his job to find them.

Once CJ hits the second level, he's one of the best.......EVER. That can definitely affect wins and losses.

 

For what reason? He was making 10-20% of his market value. Didn't he have the right, as an athlete with a clearly short window of productivity, to demand his due and proper? Literally, what about him holding out upsets you as a person? He didn't do it in spite of you or the fans. He did it because he was trying to maximize his income while at his highest value. This is a business. Don't think for a second the Titan's wont cut a player who is under performing while still under contract. What's the difference?

And what are you basing this speculation on? How terrible Ringer was for the 9 carries he did get? That was a close, sloppy game. I think we would have definitely lost without CJ. He was the only offensively productive player on the entire team that game.

 

Lamont Thompson, Nick Harper, Chris Hope, Michael Griffin, kfc, Donald Nickey, Jarrett Payton & Cris Brown all disagree

But I get your point.


NFL contracts are 90% about the signing bonus because injury can in fact end a career in 1 play. I would prefer the contracts be guranteed, but they are not and that is not changing so it is what it is.
