Glad to get a win, but this team has serious problems. Not seeing more than 6-7 wins if they improve significantly.

Start Ringer. I'm not sure if it's the blocking, the defense when CJ is in the game, or if he's not trying, but Ringer was impressive yesterday.

You at least split up the carries and go with the hot hand now. Chris Johnson just isn't getting it done.

CJ has been getting arm tackled by lb's in space when he does have a little room. His "patience" is passive hesitation and has been all year. That's why you press a hole with aggression, though there may not be one, and ringer does it right now.
He is now being questioned around the NFL in regards to his motivation.

Really not sure what's up with CJ. The line has blocked poorly this year, but CJ just isn't hitting the holes hard enough. That's whats made him so good the last 3 years, he'd hit the holes and be off to the races. I don't know where his vision has gone. Either that or he's not giving the effort.

He got a 30+ million dollar check. It's human nature. Just frustrating. The elite and mentally strongest aren't affected. CJ has been. Maybe he'll respond with the newest reactions from those involved with the NFL.

We play the Colts and Jags, but you don't think we'll win any other games this season? We'll squeak out at least three more.

9-7 season. 10-6 with a playoff berth if I'm feeling optimistic.

CJs running style is the same. He's always been a patient runner.

Incorrect on the first point and NFL analysts all agree he isn't running the same and the Titans agree as well. You can be patient, then press the gap or hole. He isn't doing the latter, isn't making people miss and is going down easy.

Think you guys are seeing what you want to see. I agree something is amiss but his running style is the same and I don't think it's a lack of effort. I'm thinking the new scheme isn't meshing with his running style.

So I want to see him getting arm tackled and you don't see it?
Nonsense.

Titans have a chance to finish 3-1 vs AFC North teams.

I'm shocked. I thought the Bengals Titans game would be on Cable in my area because the only other late afternoon game on CBS other than Bengals Titans is Raiders Broncos.

He just looks slow now. Just another runningback, the burst isn't there.

If you watched on NFL Network Playbook AFC Matchups it showed the problem. CJ had a lane not a huge lane but still somewhat open in the Colts game, and he turned his back on trying the spin move.
I think CJ's Confidence has dimished, and he's trying to do to much. When you get a contract of more than 2 years, and more than 12 million pressure to produce has increased.
Ringer just ran foward.

Got a bet with my Bengals buddy for a bottle of vodka on the line. Need a big win Sunday
