    I'm not completely sure if this is where this goes but I just read that Jim Johnson passed away. I always loved Johnson's defenses and was a good part of why I would follow the Eagles some. Thoughts and prayers to his family.

    Wow I live in Philadelphia and I really disliked the team, However I loved JJ and his defensive mind and attitude.

    Have to say im sorry for such a fighter to go out like this, Rest in Peace Jim and know your family and friends are in each of our prayers.

    The league has lost one of the good ones..

    I live in Philly, too. This is a terrible loss.
    Even though I never like JJ or the Eagles, I feel for his family.
    R.I.P JJ.

    Sad news. From what little I knew about him, he seemed like a real good guy. And, he was arguably one of the best defensive coordinators in the NFL...ever. Seemed like he always had a good/great D. Very sad indeed.

    RIP Mr. Johnson...
