Chris Johnson, Ray Lewis buddies

This week, the Baltimore Ravens and Tennessee Titans play each other in what should turn out to be similar to a street brawl. The Ravens and Titans both do 2 things well: run the ball and stop the run (play good defense).

Well, Ray Lewis called Titans' rookie RB Chris Johnson this week.

"It was a nice little conversation,'' Johnson said. "He seems like a really good guy. He told me he liked my game and he likes what I have been doing and he has been following me since college. He told me to continue to keep it up and if I ever needed to talk about anything I have his number. I thought it was pretty cool that he called.''

"I'm sure people fear him on the football field. I won't fear him,'' Johnson said. "You have to go in there with the same mentality and that's one of the things he said to me. He said he is just out there having fun and we talked about having fun on the field.''

It's good for the rook to not "fear him", but it will be difficult for him to put up big numbers in week 5. I expect somewhere around 60 yards rushing.
