That is to say by the time Johnson gets in the endzone Jackson will be ~2.5 yards behind him. You want Johnson.
Barry Sanders would be 20 yards behind those guys but I would still pick him...

Football isn't a trackmeet. Sultan McCullough anyone?
Also, Rogers-Cromartie tracked CJ down 2 weeks ago. CJ still got the TD But DRC made up alot of ground on him.
