Why Chris Johnson does not deserve the Yscm Record

[24]

recently history was made in the nfl. Chris Johnson became the 6th 2000 yard rusher in nfl history but also broke Marshal Faulks record for Yards from scrimmage (i believe that is the term correct me if i am wrong) while i am not doubting Chris Johnson's ability as a running back i don't believe that he deserves to have the record. the reason why i believe that Johnson does not deserve to have his name amongst some of hte greatest players that ever played the game is due to the fact of how much he got the ball.

Marshal Faulk carried the ball 253 times in his original Record-breaking year. he also grabbed 87 receptions when added up Marshall Faulk touched the ball 340 times that year Chris Johnson Carried the ball 358 times that is more than faulks receptions and carries combined. not to mention that the Tennessee Titans offensive line allowed a total of 27 in the past 2 years which is the best in the NFL. The Year that Faulk broke the original record the Rams allowed 33 sacks. Which means that not only Chris Johnson touched the ball more but had a better offensive line than faulk did.

Lol @ the whole post. Terrible logic all over the place, and you forgot to mention a few things about the Rams, namely the receiving corps on that team.

i just don't think he belongs in such an elite category i mean obviously if he gets the most carries of course he is going to put up great stats.

Marshall Faulk is that you?

your kidding right this whole post is silly there to many variables
what about faulk playing on astro turf that makes you faster versus johnson on grass or faulk having most of his games in great weather or faulk having a better overall offensive team of super bowl quality.
every snap johnson gets he got a bullseye on his jersey and he still produces.

He deserves the record because he set the record. He may have touched the ball more, but he still had to gain the yards.
