Lame Johnson isn't secure much
Eagles' Johnson fed up with Pats' 'arrogance'
Eagles' Johnson fed up with Pats' 'arrogance'
This made sense:
"I saw a [Patriots] defense that wasn't overly talented. It was all really about containing Tom Brady," Johnson said on the Austin podcast. "We had a hard time doing that -- he had 505 yards. But that was really it, man. Going into the game, I'm not going to be shell-shocked by it. That was kind of our thing going in. I think we had the upper hand on that."
It was pretty much the worst game the defense played all year. They looked lost. Still kind of stunned by it.
Then on the other hand, what good quality offenses (and especially offensive lines) did they play last season?
Also, by and large Doug and the coaching staff last season were very good at taking apart opponents, and keeping them off balance. Note for instance what they did to Denver (back then regarded as one of the better defenses if not the best defense in the league). And one of the biggest differences, IMHO is him not falling into the 'BB-trap' and have his team play scared.

Should have played Butler.....
