2020 offseason: David Johnson predicts a 1000/1000 season

[Lomax to Green 84]

Old David still thinks he is a top 5 back. David went full on Shaun Alexander after that $39 million deal.

He lost his burst ever since that wrist injury. Most players don’t get their speed back after a wrist injury.

You'd have to explain to me how a wrist injury effects his ability to run.

It seems to me that this flash in the pan is weighed down by his wallet.

he didn't have that burst BEFORE that injury in that game. I remember that first Lions game of the season where I said he doesn't look the same as he did the previous two years. Everyone jumped on me and called me an idiot. Then, said the same thing last season immediately and at that point only 75% of the board jumped down my throat.

It's always weird to me how people can't see what's right in front of their faces.

Classic. Adrian Peterson comes back after multiple tears in his knee and is still playing after a decade. Meanwhile, David Johnson dances behind the line of scrimmage after hurting his wrist. David Johnson has become a historical mental case

He just had his second child and is cashing some of the largest paychecks of any back in the league. He has become a sunk cost.

I saw it as well and was criticized saying we should trade him to a contender that would throw us a first for him and was crucified for it. I cringed when Keim gave him that contract considering how easy it is to find a play making RB in later rounds now .

Him chugging his way to the sideline on that sweep today sealed it for me today.. guy is checked out or just doesn't have it anymore. That fire is gone imo.

That was a vicious hit and I think it really scarred him mentally a bit. He was never a bruiser RB, but now he avoids contact. For a 225lb RB he sure goes down easy

Knee injury vs Rams sunk his career...he’s never been the same. I hate the Rams.

He probably made himself bulletin board material with that as well.. doesn't help.

Have you forgotten this gruesome injury??:

That is what has apparently robbed us all from witnessing a great career.

From what I remember it looked bad, but was not a full tear. He rehabbed and was good to go. He should have been able to come back from that in full form. Imo
