The Facts:
Tennessee Titans running back Chris Johnson rushed for 141 yards on 25 carries and added two catches for 16 yards in the Titans' 38-14 loss to the Houston Texans. While he has yet to find the end zone this season, it was his first 100-yard game since December 4, 2011, when he rushed for 153 yards and two scores. Johnson had 45 yards on 33 carries through three games before his big performance on Sunday.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
There is a very good chance that many frustrated fantasy owners benched Chris Johnson this week after his struggles through the first three games and the tough match-up against Houston's No. 5-ranked run defense. Leave it to Johnson to find a way to get it done against the Texans. Whether he can put together two good games in a row remains to be seen, but he ran with purpose and effort, made cuts and hit the holes that you'd expect. Fantasy owners who've been looking to deal Johnson now have a window of opportunity to sell high.
