Arizona's David Johnson expecting big things in new offense
Arizona running back David Johnson believes it could be a grand year.
Two grand, even.
Johnson came close to having 1,000 yards rushing and receiving once before and believes he can do it under new coach Kliff Kingsbury's high-octane offense.
''I definitely hope that a thousand/thousand is reachable and that's always going to be my goal, with the team coming first,'' Johnson said after organized team activities Wednesday.
Lol. I was excited that was a real quote. You got me."I will always have goals like that but after my injury year and last year not going anywhere near I'd like...Right now I just want to focus on winning and doing everything I can to put my team in the position to win. If I can break out again, that is ideal but it doesn't matter if we are not winning"
He needs to change his mindset to something like that.
The season he flirted with those numbers we were sub .500If he gets those numbers I’m pretty sure we’ll be winning a load of games. It’s good to have goals
If he gets 1k/1k chances are they are winning games.How about a goal of winning games?
Um,"I will always have goals like that but after my injury year and last year not going anywhere near I'd like...Right now I just want to focus on winning and doing everything I can to put my team in the position to win. If I can break out again, that is ideal but it doesn't matter if we are not winning"

DJ is a victim of the " yeah, but" syndrome. He could gain 2,000 yds on th ground and 2,500 yards as a receiver - and there would be cries of "yeah, but how come he didn't gain 5,000 total yards" or "yeah, but we didn't win more games than Seattle."Stuff like this is hilarious. We had a historically bad offense last year and he still almost got a 1000 yards rushing with the worst offensive line in football and no threat of a passing game and the worst play calling in football
Now he sucks
David Johnson: hey guys I’d like to have a really good year because I hold myself to a high standard
Random fans: that dude sucks and why is he putting himself above the team
Lol
You’d rather hear him say he’s hoping to have an average year?yeah I'm done hearing about the 2k goal. We are LONG removed from that season. Right now lets focus on being a complete back and go from there.
I have seen zero evidence to back that up. Please tell me what you’ve seen that gives you that notion.I’m not convinced that Edmonds isn’t equally suited to this offense. Put the double negatives and poor sentence structure together and you have me thinking that DJ may not be in the long range plan.
Just my gut feeling. We’ll see how it plays out.I have seen zero evidence to back that up. Please tell me what you’ve seen that gives you that notion.
Chase Edmonds? lol.I’m not convinced that Edmonds isn’t equally suited to this offense. Put the double negatives and poor sentence structure together and you have me thinking that DJ may not be in the long range plan.
Um,

And then a bunch of people just read the headline and start making assumptions that guys don't care about winning games. It's a vicious cycle.I should have known. It seems like it happens with every quote now. Like with the Murray/Mahomes comparisons. The reporter already has his headline in mind, asks the perfect question to validate his headline, then as long as that validation is part of the answer, he runs with it and his headline becomes the story. Is that what happened here?
