Dick Vermeil calls PSU product a baby...LOL

LJ had two goaline rushes behing the best Oline in the NFL. Got stuffed both attempts.

He ran into one of his lineman (Willie Roaf) on one of the attempts.  Dude is like 350 lbs...how the hell do ya not see that guy? 

Also, Johnson's 2.1 ypc average yesterday is apparently due to the fact that he was running with a soggy diaper.

Blaylock looks like trash tonight (and so does that "best OL in the NFL"), and Larry still hasn't seen the field.  Vermeil must just hate him and/or really think he sucks the big one.  We'll see him on a new team next year.

Farging Blaylock with 58 rushing yards. I ended up with a tie this week. Would 2 more yards have killed him?

You're lucky he even got that.  He looked like cold vomit in that game.

[JTrotterFan]

Good for Larry Johnson...gets his first TD and 40 yards already!!   

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

KC was outmatched today by SD (wow), but they really did a nice job with the "two-headed monster" of Blaylock and Johnson.  At least Vermeil took his head out of his arse long enough to realize that LJ brings another dimension to the game.

Larry Johnson scored two second-half touchdowns, on a 5-yard run and a 10-yard reception from Green. Johnson was given the game ball afterward, and praised by general manager Carl Peterson.  "A lot of people in the media said I couldn't do what I did today," said Johnson, the team's top draft pick in 2003. "I knew if I got the opportunity, I could do something."

GAME BALL GOES TO...
Larry Johnson. With Priest Holmes out and Derrick Blaylock injured, Johnson carried the ball 20 times for 118 yards and one TD.

from MURP:

Priest Holmes year could be done

So, no one's going to eat a little crow and admit that LJ just might not be a bust after all?

[MURP]

I think it's going to take a little more than 1 good game in a career as a first round pick, against the 24th rated rush defense, while playing behind one of the best Olines in the NFL.    Im sure even you can admit that Freddie.

When Larry Johnson starts for a team and is a good RB for atleast one season I'll have no problem eating some crow.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Bah, if Julius Jones can be the next incarnation of Emmitt Smith after only 3 games, then we shouldn't hold Larry to a higher standard.

Bottom line is that he IS doing better in the action he's seen than you thought/hoped he'd do.

[MURP]

I dont think Jones is the next Emmitt and until Larry Johnson meets the requirements I posted above he is a bust IMO.   Lower your standards for PSU players all you want if it makes you feel better. 

[General_Failure]

Your infatuation with this runningback is based on a physical attraction. Talk to him, and you'll realize out you have nothing in common.

How'd I come up with that? It was on one of these bar napkins.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Fair enough, MURP.


In that case, Shawn Andrews = BUST.  McDougle = BUST.  Freddie = BUST-A-RIFFIC.


Because... like you said... BUST until proven otherwise.

[MURP]

Freddie Mitchelll is a bust.  McDougle is pretty close.  Andrews is not due to injury, he was a starter.  Larry Johnson didnt have a season ending injury.  He was as low as the #4 RB on the Chiefs because of multiple reasons, none to do with injury.    Hey, Im rooting for Larry Johnson, he is on my fantasy team so he had better put up some damn points.
