For a Gus lead offense to be successful the qb has to run the ball.


This is stupid.

The offense stinks because JJ right now is not good at ANYTHING.
If he was hitting his passes, defenses will back off and open up the run.
If he was running well, the rest off the running game would open up because he'd be a threat on the zone read.

But since he's not doing anything well...It's Gus' offense, right?

I still think he can fix it, but it has to start with him running without fear.

He looks good when Gus allows him to run the Read option. He isn't great at it like Nick Marshall, but the kid can move well for 6'5 and has some pop when he remembers he is 250 and bigger than most LBs


GOt to remember, he doesn't need to run for 20+ YPC. All Johnson needs to do is be a consistent threat for 4-6 yards. If he is that threat, the defense is forced to take him into account and change their scheme. Opens up passing lanes, opens up running lanes and makes his QB duties less overwhelming
