Welcome John Johnson III, S

[Out of the Rafters at the Q]

If this dude starts barking while miked? Oh boy.

It took me like 4 looks to make sure this didn't say "milked"

There isn't a "k" in "microphone

Dont worry, same.

It’s almost impossible because I never access RCF via comp/tablet and mic takes me like five minutes to get to not autocorrect. Infuriating.

I thought it said "milked" until reading your post, and just assumed it was some new term the kids are using that I didn't know about.

I mean, I like to bark while being milked, but that's just my fetish.

@Lee I don't google it though. I know where to find the good stuff, unlike you elderly people googling for porn from the nursing home's shared PC

So... This John Johnson guy.

Taken from Gribble's article on the Browns site:

"I've always felt like the safety should be like the quarterback of the defense," Johnson told reporters in Sept. 2020. "Oftentimes it's the linebacker, the middle linebacker, but just for me personally, you know, high school, college, I was always the leader in the back of the defense."

Chub is going to have an amazing TD run, JJ3 will get in his face all excited, Chub will just stare and say nothing like he does, and JJ3 will walk away confused. I hope he is miked up for it, it will make my week, lol.

That said, I absolutely love this guys passion.

If the Browns are a free-agency destination now, wouldn't that mean there would be a few more signings?

Just because someone wants something, doesn't mean they get it. Telling players "nah, we're good," is the *true* sign of being a free agent destination.

A great "X's and O's" read from back in December about the scheme Johnson is coming from and the impact he could have on our defense. It seems like the Browns are trending towards using some of these concepts. Also a glowing account of new Chargers coach Brandon Staley.

Excerpt for non-subscribers:

This 4-yard gain from the Rams’ Week 16 loss to Seattle is a useful example of what Staley is talking about here. Nose tackle Sebastian Joseph-Day and de-facto defensive end Michael Brockers manage to each play more than one gap as they clog up running lanes and provide time for safety John Johnson and others to flow toward the ball. Considering how they distribute their players on defense, the Rams’ success with this strategy against the run is probably the most impressive aspect of their defense in 2020. Despite lining up in light boxes more often than any other team in the NFL, the Rams rank first in rushing EPA/play allowed and third in run-defense DVOA. According to Next Gen Stats, just 26.7 percent of rushing plays against the Rams have been above expectation — the third lowest rate in the league.

This article is not only critical to understanding why Johnson is a huge signing, but also understanding why the defense Woods talked about in the preseason never materialized.

Staley jumped from a young linebackers coach to a head coach in a little over one season. He is way ahead of the rest of the NFL in stopping the run out of a defensive back heavy personnel group.

I'm getting exited about the defense with the right players executing the defense Woods always wanted to unleash.

I have no insight into how McKinley will fit into this idea of gap-flexibility on the line of scrimmage. But it doesn't seem like a stretch to say Berry is going to have a very specific type for the front 7.

This trend isn't a secret throughout the league either. Baltimore, New England, and in a different vein Buffalo, seem like strong foils for it. At least we're at the chess table now.

Edit: after signing Hill away from LA too, I think the direction of the scheme is undeniable
