Warped view of LJ's performance thus far.

I havent seen anything in writing quite like this. Someone wrote in to S.I. and asked Ryan Houston, Special to SI.com, a fantasy question:

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/200...bag/index.html

"
After seeing what happened during Week 1, would it be crazy for me to start Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson at the same time? I have read that they will alternate series' 2 to 1. I have Steven Jackson, Fred Taylor, Brandon Jacobs, and Lamar Gordon also. Does this seem like a bad idea?
-- Paul

"On our radio show we received calls about this all day. Everyone is very concerned what kind of impact Larry Johnson is going to make on Priest Holmes' numbers this season. I really didn't see anything that made me feel Larry Johnson is an every-week starter. Sure he had two TDs but how often is Larry Johnson going to turn nine carries into 110 yards and two TDs? Holmes was the focal point of the offense and will be as long as he can stay healthy."



Excuse me, but wouldnt THAT (getting 110 and 2TD's on 9 carries) be enough to show that a guy just MIGHT be decent enough to be an every week starter?? Who is this clown?

Hey Skip did you know that with 2 td's tomorrow night LJ will tie john Riggins' record for consecutive games with 2 td's?

Priest has the wheels for that run. What he doesn't have is the speed to take it another 30 yards, and it doesn't have anything to do with his age; he's never had breakaway speed. LJ does.
So what you're saying is that during Holmes' entire Chiefs career they've never run that play and blocked that well before?

When LJ breaks a long one notice how the defenders frantically attempt to adjust their angles at the last second. He outruns their angles. He makes it look simple. He always has. What is Priest's longest TD run as a chief and why doesn't the offensive line block as well for him as they do for Larry?

I suppose Priest would have scored on LJ's 97yarder in preseason? But of course all the credit goes to the line on that one, too.

If that is going to be your assertion every time LJ makes a long run look easy, you are going to be singing that tune a lot.

I saw that the other day. You can ask Saul, before that was posted here I called LJ a black John Riggins.

That, to me, was an example of LJ's power.

Priest's TD was an example of his determination.

You're either not very bright, or being intentionally obtuse. Let me repeat myself:

Priest has the wheels for that run. What he doesn't have is the speed to take it another 30 yards, and it doesn't have anything to do with his age; he's never had breakaway speed. LJ does.

Priest has never had breakaway speed. LJ does.

Got that? Do I need to say it again?

Priest has never had breakaway speed. LJ does.

For the third time on the thread, I will say that the subject here is about FANTASY fucking football. It's not about whether Holmes or Johnson is a better runningback than the other. It's about which one will touch the ball more often, and as long as Priest is the starter -- which he is -- he's going to touch the ball.

That doesn't mean Larry sucks. That doesn't mean Larry won't score. That doesn't mean Larry won't make amazing plays. All it means is that Priest is the starter and will have more opportunities.

Now quit wasting my time with silly bullshit.

Overpowering three defenders at once and outrunning everyone for the full length of the football field could also define determination.

Personally I find it quite amusing that we as Chiefs fans would give a fock who's running the ball as long as we're moving the chains and crossing the stripe.

Where does it say this is about fantasy football? I wouldn't be on this thread if I'd known that. I never post on those threads.

This information must not of made it to the person that wrote that article. It is amazing considering the completely different time in NFL and the difference in playing time.
