McDermott recalls Jim Johnson, Eagles days fondly


Recommended Posts

Great read, some very interesting things I didn't know.  Jim Johnson was one of the best D coordinators out there, right there with Dick Lebeau. Funny thing is, I never knew he was a TE for the Bills '63 AFL championship team. Small world. 

 

"Like McDermott, Frazier often reflects on lessons he learned from Johnson and says he's reminded of the former coach almost daily. In a twist of fate, McDermott and Frazier coach for the same franchise Johnson played tight end for back when it was a fledgling AFL team in 1963."
