Chris Johnson goes over 2,000 yards
Heading into today's game, Titans running back Chris Johnson needed 128 rushing yards to become the sixth player in NFL history to reach the 2,000-yard milestone and 233 yards to tie Eric Dickerson's single-season record.
And for an 11th consecutive game, Johnson rushed for over 100 yards to go over 2,000 yards. He finished with 134 yards in today's win over Seattle and with 2,006 for the season.
“It means a lot,’’ said Johnson, per The Tennessean. “I’m not really tired. I’m just happy about getting to 2,000 yards and the victory.’’
While he fell short of the single-season rushing record, Johnson broke Marshall Faulk's yards-from-scrimmage record and Earl Campbell's franchise rushing record.
In 2010, "Every Coach's Dream" is likely to be the top overall pick in fantasy football drafts in the majority of leagues.
