I think Johnson was quoted at his presser as saying, 'he wanted to stay in the NFCN to beat Green Bay twice'.....not sure if this is true or not (you know, the Internet and all) but if it is, I don't get why you'd give a team ammo you play twice a year. Talk softly but carry a big stick. I watched just a minute of his presser, a little bit off via Adam Gase vibe.
Ammo here...

Johnson is now smack in the middle of the grand-daddy of all NFL rivalries: GB vs CHI
He's working to get that moribund fan-base excited.

I thought Johnson's comment might have been friendly ribbing between old friends. Apparently, that is not the case.

Brian Schottenheimer close to being named Cowboy's HC?

I get that, but there's other ways to stoke it. I'm telling you, go watch 5 minutes of Johnson speaking: he's a bit of a weirdo. I'm all for rejuvenated rivalries, especially that one.

Schottenheimer wouldn't surprise me - known entity and knows he is way around Jerruh and the Cowboys.
Johnson video I watched was a little squirm worthy.
He could be just odd or he'll get better in front of the camera with more practice. Ive seen improvement with KOC, although he wasn't quite as "different" in the beginning.
I figure Eberflus cost them 2-3 games last year, so they really should be on the upswing with Johnson

On a "yay for us, but sorry for him" note, Flores appears to be out of head coaching opportunities ... at least for this year. I think he's an integral part of what the Vikings are building and I'm glad he'll probably be back. The Wilfs don't come across as cheapskate owners so I hope the organization recognizes Flores' importance and they pay the man.

This got interesting with the Tampa OC as he signed a new contract with them but then backed out last minute when the Jaguars fired their GM and is now going to be the HC of Jacksonville. I think the rumor is nobody new wants to tie their wagon to Trevor Lawrence unless they get the bag....also, Baalke their GM was viewed as a major league asshole.

Ben Johnson is kind of odd. He brought up LaFleur twice. He didn't get much of a reaction either. People didn't know what to make of it. It was like trying to resuscitate the importance of the rivalry without backing it up. Time will tell how it goes
