Once upon a time, Chris Johnson was the NFL's most explosive running back, and a dynamite fantasy option. The 2011 version of Johnson isn't anything close to that player, and he struggled again in Week 11, rushing for 12 yards on 13 carries against the Falcons.
For comparison, both of Tennessee's quarterbacks, Matt Hasselbeck and Jake Locker, had more than 10 yards, all of them coming on a single carry.
After a brief moment of 2009-esque play in Week 10, Johnson continues to be one of fantasy football's biggest disappointments of the 2011 NFL season. His 130 yards and a touchdown against Carolina last week seem like a long-forgotten blip, and he's failed to average over five yards per carry for a single game all season.
