After what has been a mostly disappointing season for Chris Johnson, he might finally be back. Today against Tampa he had 190 yards on 23 carries. It could have been a really big day, but CJ didn't score and only had 1 catch for 3 yards. They seemed to use Javon Ringer on more snaps than CJ for some reason. I didn't see CJ in there too much on 3rd downs. Considering this was a close game throughout, you would think they would want to stick with the hot hand. But what do I know, Ringer did have whole 18 yards on 13 touches.
This marks CJ's 2nd big game in 3 weeks. Most CJ owners have been very disappointed by what CJ has done to this point, but if they are still alive, they might be able to make a run at the title. The schedule is also pretty solid for him in the fantasy playoffs.
Week 14- Saints allow 14th most points against RBs.
Week 15- Colts 3rd most allowed
Week 16- Jags 24th most allowed
The Jags game could be tough, but I think if CJ got you to your championship game, you would be pretty happy. They will also need to start using him more in the passing game and at the goal line for him to fully breakout. Considering how many RB injuries there have been, at least CJ is still alive and it looks like he may be poised to salvage the season.
