Ben Johnson……
One more post on this topic, I posted this elsewhere but it shows how playcalling can be irrelevant when you are getting beaten up front. Both the Saints and Lions are running the same route concept here (a shallow in front of a search route), but look at the difference in pocket when each QB gets to the second read. One OC is routinely called a genius, the other one routinely gets calls for his head, even when we often call similar concepts.
If Johnson ends up somewhere with a bad OL or QB, he may not look so brilliant anymore. That’s why I think he should be looking at the Falcons opening, they have a top tier OL with several first round skill players, and they can probably upgrade their QB room this offseason.
