NFL Goes to 47 Game Season to Accomadate CJ2K Quest for 2500 yards

Chris Johnson of the Tennessee Titans boasted that
this year he would reach 2,500 yards rushing, but
if his first two games this year are any indication,
then that is nothing more than illusion on his part.
CJ had one breakaway run vs the Raiders due to a
defensive breakdown on the Part of FS Michael Huff
(He was benched for the next defensive series).
If you subtract only that run from CJ's total so
far in 2010, then you'll see that he has a total of
100 rush yards on 42 rush attempts this season for a
grand total average of 2.38 YPA. If that is a pattern
that teams are starting to key in on CJ then it would
take Mr Johnson almost 47 games at an average of 53.25
yards per game to achieve his feat 2,500 yards rushing
in a single season. His average in the Raider game
minus his one breakaway run was was slightly higher
at 2.54 yards per carry, and vs the Steelers it was
2.125. So he better hope he has a few more of those
76 yard runs mixed in, otherwise the NFL may truly need
to go to a 47 game season to accommodate CJ2k's desire!
