Re: Redskins Sign FB Carey Davis and S Tyrone Carter
Rich Campbell charted LJ's runs:
1. 4-yard gain: Johnson got around the right edge even though C Casey Rabach and RT Jammal Brown were pushed back and LB Ray Lewis penetrated the backfield through RG Artis Hicks.
2. 4-yard loss: FB Mike Sellers missed the lead block.
3. No gain: Baltimore’s linebackers plugged the gaps, and RG Artis Hicks was beaten.
4. 3-yard gain: RG Artis Hicks was pushed back into the backfield, forcing Johnson to make his cut prematurely.
5. No gain: LT Trent Williams missed his block in space on the left edge.
6. 3-yard loss: LT Trent Williams was driven back by LB Terrell Suggs, blowing up the play in the backfield.
7. 2-yard gain: There wasn’t a significant hole for Johnson to hit. Perhaps he could have done more on this one if he had hit it faster. FB Mike Sellers was injured on this play.
8. 2-yard gain: Johnson tripped over RG Artis Hicks’ legs.
…so as you can see, the offensive line gets a fair share of the blame for Johnson’s poor production.
