Josh Johnson

[futballiscool]

Just read that he was signed as the new backup QB. 0-5 record with a 58 passer rating.

 

[kramer1]

He's black!

 

[DanBengalfan]

some cheap guy who can't play, but fills a roster spot.

typical.

 

[DanBengalfan]

Johnson is the cousin of current Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch.

That signing should really push Dalton to get better.

 

[Tubbs1518]

I actually really liked him coming out of college. He has a lot of talent, just needs coached up. Now I'm not confident we can do that. He is fast (4.44 40 time), holds the record for the most efficient QB in NCAA Division 1 history (176.68).

There are a lot worse QB's we could have as a backup, Gradkowski being on of them.

All I see is an 0-5 record with a 58 passer rating.......

All I see is that he played for a crappy TB team. 4 of those games he started were as a rookie and against the Patriots, Eagles, Panthers and Redskins. Its tough to play for a bad team as a rookie and expect him to get wins. Is he great? No, but who else did you want them to sign?

Kevin Kolb – ARI
Luke McCown – ATL
Tyler Thigpen – BUF
Jason Campbell – CHI
Josh McCown – CHI
Caleb Hanie – DEN
Jordan Palmer – JAC
Brady Quinn – KC
Matt Leinart – OAK
Charlie Batch – PIT
Byron Leftwich – PIT
Kellen Clemens – STL
Rex Grossman – WAS
Vince Young – FA
Sage Rosenfels – FA
Seneca Wallace – FA
Donovan McNabb – FA
A.J. Feeley – FA
Troy Smith – FA
Chris Redman – FA
John Beck – FA
Stephen McGee – FA
J.P. Loseman – FA

There is your list of FA QB's. Who on that list is a better sign? At least Johnson is still young and has the ability to grow.

Tubbs is already drunk.

Matt Hasselbeck was available......we of course never approached him....

 

[Tubbs1518]

Hasselbeck would have cost too much money for us to pay a backup. 4 mil a year. No thanks.

We have 8 billion in cap space. Peyton Manning could be our backup.

I don't want to pay our backup 5 mil this year, when odds are there is no chance he sees the field unless we are down 50.

I don't want to root for the Bengals, but I do.

 

[Servo]

I think this guy has a losing record for the Sacramento Mountain Lions. Vet minimum, I presume. WHo Dey!

 

[bengaldoug]

Hasselbeck could have won the starting job.....He's better than Dalton now, and probably better than Dalton will ever be.....

There is no way anyone is starting over Dalton no matter what they did in camp. Are you delusional?
