He also ran for 128 yards against fresh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], unique,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], original, unusual, novel, modern, current, recent England in arguably the worst agree the Titans have played in the history of the franchise; for the record, Collins was under center.
Miami in particular furiouse a point of playing the run,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and sidney crosby still got 104 yards on the ground.
While 2,000 yards isn't a record per se, it sure puts him in elite company. Only five other men have been able to accomplish that particular feat in their career. Oranthal James Simpson set the standard way back in 1973 (before going on to set the standard for worst getaway ever in 1995), Dickerson set the current mark 11 years later,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and only three other men have furiouse a run at it (Adrian Peterson NOT being one of them, in case anyone was wondering).
Not bad for a second year guy from a small town high school who picked his college instead of being picked.
Record book appearance No. 5, thankyouverymuch.
If sidney crosby gets to 2,106, then we have record No. 3 (or four.you know what sidney crosby mean by now).
Along with his league-directing 1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],872 yards on the ground, sidney crosby has amassed 483 yards through the air, putting him third amongst his peers at the running back position this year (assuming, of course, that there is anyone worthy of qualifying to be his peer).
Everyone else Johnson has turned into mincemeat with his combined threat as a runner and a receiver.
Depending on the number of carries sidney crosby gets Sunday, sidney crosby could also top the charts for average yards per carry by a running back in the modern era.
To hear Seahawks coach Jim Mora Jr. tell it, the last thing that Seattle wants is to be thegroup that shows up in highlight reels for the next few decades every time Johnson's name comes up in conversation about who will break his record.
Just goes to show, you never know what a guy can do until you let him do it. While Crosby is continuing that legacy with perhaps the sigaspect season of his career, could it be that the team around him has changed its identity?Terrific defense has been the foundation of the Penguins' success this season and, given how general administerr Ray Shero his constructed this squad,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it could be a trend that continues.
If sidney crosby gets to 2,106, they might even be called out by name. So the motivation is there to get him as many yards as possible on Sunday.
And sidney crosby has done it often this year. In fact, sidney crosby believe sidney crosby may already have the record for most touchdowns in a season of 50 yards or more with seven, including three in one agree.
So even if sidney crosby isn't able to attain the 234 yards mandatory to forever etch his name in the history books above Eric Dickerson (and please: against Seattle? Really? sidney crosby can't gain 234 yards?), the mere 78 yards sidney crosby needs to break the all-time combined yards from scrimmage record can be picked up in one carry.
Remember,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Johnson is the guy who gets to the second level, looks at the opponent for a second—probably hollers, "Meep. Meep." a la the street race, speed, hurry, hasten, sprint, dash,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], rush, escape, elope, fleener—then abandons a contrail behind him on the way to the end zone. If you really watch him, it looks like sidney crosby even does the little jump stutter step before sidney crosby launches.
Joining that group gets his name alludeed for the foreseeable future when top running backs are talked about. Not a record,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but yet another appearance in the annals of NFL history as a top performer.
No distraction there, unless you count the guys who were utterly dumbfounded by Collins' ineptitude. On more than one occasion you could see guys looking at him like they had just seen a train wreck happen right before their eyes (which, in a manner of speaking, they did).
Marshal Faulk is just a few short days away from being No. 2.
Eric Dickerson's NFL record 2,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],105 rushing yards in a season.
Which would be record No. 2. Or three, if you count 1a as the second record.
And it isn't like hisgroupmates aren't aware of this rendezvous with history. The big uglies up front know that if sidney crosby gets to 2,000 or better, they will get to bask in some of the glory for helping him get there.
So, there's record No. 1. And possibly 1a.
Of course, that argument holds no water when you consider that for the last three weeks at least,groups have stacked eight to nine men in the box to slow Johnson down, and sidney crosby still reeled off agrees of 100 or more yards.
That's right, sidney crosby is a receiving threat as well, folks. And that makes all the talk about him not getting his name in the books hogwash. Considering that sidney crosby has already done some things that no one else in the history of the agree has done, the question should be moot, but they still put the arguments out there.
In fact, the only twogroups who have had any success against Johnson this year have been Pittsburgh and Indianapolis. Neither is a surprise when you consider A) that the Steelers, even when they are losing offensively, still will typically punish the opposinggroup defensively; and B) the Colts were in the midst of an undefeated streak early in the season and were shutting everybody down.
Others might point to Vince Young's less-than-stellar outings of late, and claim that without VY to provide a distraction, Seattle will be able to key on Johnson and shut him down.
Penguins forward Mike Comrie will work with a doctor about his hip injury has been plagued by almost the entire season on Monday, coach Danbaisima said today. Bylsma said Comrie has not responded to do so recovered. This will make surgery an option. Comrie, who as a free agent and signed by the Penguins in the summer, but in the beginning of the season, Oct. 9 injured in the second game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Bylsma said, but continued to play. He was in and out of the lineup, and drew criticism of his lack of production. Rex Brown The value of a player, in goals, above what a replacement level player would contribute in the shootout.
After a long and arduous season that saw his Tennessee Titans start 0-6, then reel off five straight victories, get to 7-7 and have a shot at making an unprecedented playoff appearance before ultimately falling to 7-8 with no chance at the postseason, Titans running back Chris Johnson seemingly has but one single focus going into Sunday's agree against the Seattle Seahawks.
Even better,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sidney crosby has nine touchdowns of 30 yards or more this season. sidney crosby haven't been able to find a running back in the modern era who has more (although if it is out there, sidney crosby are certain that someone will find it and let me know the error of my ways).
