I had the Rotoworld news shift tonight, so you know I'm giving prime billing to Chris Johnson's performance:
Rookie Chris Johnson had 77 yards on six carries and a TD and one catch for 13 yards as Tennessee thumped the Rams in their preseason opener 34-13.Johnson, a Rotoworld favorite, found a crease and showed his ridiculous speed by simply outrunning the Rams defense on a 66-yard homerun. Johnson has been the star of Titans camp and is the real deal as a playmaker. Target him with confidence in PPR re-draft leagues and all Dynasty leagues. On second thought, just target the ultra-talented playmaker in all leagues.
I've been down on LenDale White for quite some time, so you BakeSale true believers can get on me for a being a little harsh:
LenDale White had 33 yards on six carries in the Titans exhibition opener.White looked good early before giving way to Chris Johnson. He may get steady carries this season, but White is not going to catch many passes and will lose touches to the freakishly talented rookie. There's not much to get excited about outside of TD-heavy scoring leagues.
More importantly, check out the NFL.com video highlight of Johnson's 66-yard homerun through the Rams defense. If he gets a crease, he's taking it to the house. It's definitely worth the click.
