Interesting read on Johnson and the Eagles offense this year.
Key takeaways:
- Very similar statistical performance this year and last in PPG (28.18 this year and 27.55 last year), Yards per play (5.4/5.8) and 3rd down % (47.3/47.2)
- After all the justifiable complaints about Red Zone, we are now 5th in RZ conversion (62.8%)
- We went 10 for 10 in the RZ against Cowboys, Chiefs and Bills
- He comes off as self-aware and confident in the quotes, and even has a great line about his mom telling him he’s going to give her a heart attack with these crazy finishes.
Johnson definitely deserves some criticism but not nearly as much as he gets. His situational play calling at the end of games definitely needs some improvement but outside of that he’s been solid.
