Chris Johnson Named Offensive Player of The Year

[JDSilk]

Congratulations. Well deserved, the voting results were as followed:

Chris Johnson, Titans 38½
Drew Brees, Saints 9
Peyton Manning, Colts 1½
Philip Rivers, Chargers 1

"He is the first NFL player to finish with at least 2,000 yards rushing and 500 receiving. This comes one year after Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan beat out Johnson for 2008 Offensive Rookie of the Year."

"Two other records that Chris Johnson broke were the most 85+ rush yd td's in a season with 3, and he set the record for most rushing yards in a single month with 800 in the month of November. Next season he will be chasing two records; first is to break Barry Sanders record of most consecutive games with 100+ yds rushing of 14, Chris Johnson currently has 11. Second, become the first ever running back to have two seasons of 2000 yds rushing." - Source: ESPN

Below is a couple highlight tapes I found of Chris Johnson's record setting season while doing youtube rounds:



On a side note, thank god Philip Rivers got 1 vote. It was well deserved.

I am surprised Manning finished 3rd, and so far behind Johnson.

If they don't take the foot off the gas, and go 16-0 - how much closer is this race?

How none of the Titans O-line made the pro bowl is retarded, but none the less good job to Chris Johnson!
