RIP: Jim Johnson


Anyone who knows me knows I'm a Philadelphia Eagles fan for life. Unfortunately, we've taking a big lose recently. Long time defensive coordinater and assisant coach Jim Johnson has passed away at age 68. Things definitely are not going to be the same in the Eagles camp in the years...
Whoever is going to follow in Jim Johnson's footsteps better 100x sock it to fill his shoes.

RIP Jim Johnson

"In the training camp of the Philadelphia Eagles and across the NFL, Jim Johnson is remembered as the ultimate assistant coach. As a motivator, he was tough, yet sensitive. As a defensive mastermind, he cut his players loose to blitz, blitz, blitz the quarterback.
Johnson, defensive coordinator of the Eagles for the past decade, died Tuesday at age 68 after a battle with cancer." -USA Today
