The defenses Johnson put together were routinely among the most feared in the NFL and a lot of fun to watch. His blitz packages last year made my SB Champion Steeler team look hopelessly out-manned on the OL and left pretty much everyone but the team feeling like the dominance of the first couple of games was just an illusion.
A great DC, and from all I hear, a great human being. The NFL and all it's fans will miss his presence.Ariande Stormrider - 20th Human Warchanter Bard
