Johnson can be fined $30,000 for each day of camp missed, but the three-time Pro Bowl running back wants to be rewarded for his production over his first three seasons.

C'mon Chris. I think he is turning into quite a diva. You're good but really?

Too much drama in the last couple of years.

But this kinda crap is what ticks me off to high heavens!

You signed the freaking contract. You gotta live with what you agreed to and whining about getting payed what you agreed to get payed is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen. Immature little boys in the bodies of men. Absolutely pathetic.

i can see chris' side of it

but he is under contract & he should honor that & show he is a professional

he does deserve more money, but if i were titans management, i'd be reluctant to shell out huge sums of money to a guy who puts himself before the team

look at guys like reggie wayne & robert mathis. they're underpaid too, but at the end of the day, the are professional men of their word

Is it me or is Chris Johnson one of the few backs that just can't seem to gash the Colts' defense? I'm having a hard time remembering a game where he was any kind of significant factor against the Colts...

His worst game in the 09 season when he broke 2000 yards was against us. I think it's because our defense is built around speed.

I agree. Usually, when you see him run the pitch play, it's like something out of the Matrix. You see everyone going slow and one guy going really fast. But when he plays the Colts, our defense has the speed to match him, so his biggest asset his neutralized.

    • I think odunze, Harrison,  and nabors are all better than pittman that's for sure and there there are several  wrs better than pierce as well as well as many corners that are better  than what we have.
    • Sure alot can get a 1000 yards, but what makes wrs elite are the ones who score alot and catch first downs. Colts don't have a wr on the roster that scores alot. Pittman is a wr 2 in my opinion. Pierce a wr 4 with wr 2 potential. Downs wr 2/3. Neither one of those guys are marvin Harrison  or Reggie Wayne. None of our safeties are Bob sanders. None of our edge rushers are freeney or Mathis. No Nick harpers, Kelvin Hayden, marlin Jackson, or vontaome Davis at cb So we can stand to improve  at wr, s, pass rush,and cb. We have alot of solid  guys sprinkled across the roster but very few I'd consider  elite. Buckner, Nelson, and a healthy Taylor  are among the elite. That is why I'm hoping for a game changing player in the first round. Most rookie corners aren't  that.
    • Two relevant points.   Regarding the team ALWAYS going to be run first team, RB shelf life is short and JT has already played a lot of years compared to average peak time for RBs, so there aren't many years in him into the future unless he goes on like Adrian Peterson. This team was run first because QBs weren't good, was it run first with Andrew Luck? I don't think this team is going to be run-first offense ALWAYS, especially after drafting AR, while expecting him to grow to be a franchise QB-level passer.   Yes, it's all true that Jefferson got drafted at 22,Ceedee went 17, Juedy went 15 , Aiyuk 25 and Higgins 33 but GM has gotta pick the right guy at right time and other teams shouldn't get to the right guy before Colts do.   For every Jefferson at #22 example, there's a Jalen Reagor at #21. The toughest part in picking Jefferson at #22 is not picking a bust like Reagor and missing out on Jefferson. As you go away from the top of the Draft, hitting on busts is more likely than exactly drafting the perfect right guy. Drafting isn't that easy, without the help of hindsight.    Right now, We can't name which of the WRs in upcoming draft will be a good value, good return pick, even though this draft class is super, super deep on WRs. Of course, 4 years later in 2028, everyone can point out Jefferson or Higgins or Lamb or Aiyuk of 2024 WR Draft Class.
