Jim Johnson Passes Away
Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Johnson has passed away after a fight with cancer.

One of the best, most aggressive defensive coordinators in the game. Very sad to see him go.

Re: Jim Johnson Passes Away
DAMN!

I know it was a tough fight against the big C but I thought he'd pull through. IMO Johnson is the 3rd best modern era defensive coordinator in NFL history along with Buddy Ryan and Fritz Shurmer (sp)

Damn. I heard on the radio earlier that he was fighting for his life now but I thought he would make it through.

Re: Jim Johnson Passes Away
1 of the most under-rated coaches this game has ever seen. My prayers are with the family & all eagle fans
