Yeah, I bumped his thread yesterday giving him BIG props. Not only did his LONG arms tip that critical PD for the INT in the RZ but, he blitzed (b/c you can line him up in press and jam-press) and helped force the INT to Reid IIRC and like yo both noted, you barely knew he was on the opposite side of Cully this game when Cox slide inside. That is a great sign esp. b/c Brock will probably be out a while and Ward is done (allowing Cox to comfortably prepare for the slot position going forward). I love the lineup of Cully - Cox - Johnson!

IIRC Johnson #36 was the one replacing Ward not Cox. Cox #20 stayed on the outisde the whole game.

That was my point! We played a 6'2" rookie CB inside so that we can keep Cox outside (although I prefer the opposite). The game was not on locally so I only saw it via the spots bar but can you guys with DVR and coaches film confirm this? I thought I saw him line up outside a few times as well?

lol

LOL!!!

FYI: They are showing a breakdown of how "Eli" played against us in NFLN at the 2Q 8:29 mark and it shows Johnson outside, Cox in the nickle, etc. So, it looks like Fangio moved Johnson around a lot...outside, slot, on a blitz, etc. Impressive!

I think he played the slot mostly... And Cox manned the outside mostly
Only time i noticed him was on a CB blitz. Which is a good thing b/c that mean he wasn't getting beat by anybody.

I just re-watched Johnsons snaps. The only time I saw him line up outside was on this 1st and 20 in the 2nd.

That was the Borland interception. Johnson lined up inside.

Ummm

You didn't notice his tipped pass that led to Borland's 2nd INT? lol
this is turning out to be a great draft. This ALMOST makes me forget about corey lemonaids and lance mcdurald.
56 snaps and we only remember 2....both he made great plays on. he's stepped up at every point he's been asked to i think he's going to be a star in this league.

To his defense it's hard to consistently watch players, esp secondary players unless you have the all-22..

Lol he was speaking about Johnson. NC is the man

56 snaps and we only remember 2 snaps which is always a good sign for a CB watching the broadcast.

His blitz -> Reid interception and the tipped ball at the goal-line -> Borland interception.

exactly

ideally the only time you should hear a db's name is when they make a great play
i.e. culliver all day
reid all day
he played 56 snaps out of 70 that means he was integral in the pass defense and more than held his own every time this rookie is asked to show up he does. he's not perfect, nobody is but he's way more good than bad and he's just getting started. this draft... just wow.
Hope he continues to play well out there. Awesome game yesterday!
Honestly if that was Ward on the goal line stand he woulda given up the TD. This guy is better than Ward.
