The Facts:
Asked if he expects Johnson to get the same amount of carries he did last season, or if he'd like to lessen the load, OC Mike Heimerdinger said: "I don't know. I don't have that in my mind, really. The ball doesn't weigh that much. ... I don't have that answer right off the bat. When you hand it to a guy and he's averaging six yards a carry, it's easier to give it to him again."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Johnson became the first player in NFL history with at least 2,000 rushing yards and 500 receiving yards in the same season. He also rushed for over 100 yards in 11 straight games. As Tennessean staffer Jim Wyatt points out, it will be difficult for Johnson -- or for anyone -- to match those kinds of numbers, but it's good to know he'll get ample opportunity.
