Looked like the Fins passed out the Ensure last night, Will Allen was flying all over the field, and LJ looked like he was back in a Chiefs uniform.

Good to see the old timers still got it.
 
Allen definitely was extremely good. Johnson ran very hard even without the benefit of 1st team OL. Very impressed. If this game showed much of anything it's that we are very well set with depth on this team. Going to be a much better year!
 
Nothing I'd like to see more than that, but realistically the exhibition seasons Fountains of Youth rebirths often morph into Assisted Living canes and crutches as the season exacts its physical toll.
 
I hope they decide to keep Johnson. It's important to have some veteran depth at RB and if Bush or Thomas can't run, having Johnson there wouldn't be the worst thing in the world IMO.
 
Allen was very impressive last night...I can't imagine they don't keep him, unless they are just too worried of his injuries and that it could easily happen again.

Same with Johnson, he had some decent blocking on his TD run, but he was very patient and showed some good burst when he needed it. Really waited on his blockers and for the play to develop. Smart vet stuff there.
 
1) Has great feel for the game, so usually in a great position to make a play
2) Can't catch an interception to save his life.

Will Allen fits the over-arching profile of our CBs. I bet we keep him this year.

Might be slightly less of an issue this season given the shortened offseason. I imagine older guys will be fresher a little longer, and maybe the rookie wall won't hit quite as early.
 
Johnson was very impressive to me and Moore looked like he could step in at any moment and there wouldn't be any drop off at the qb spot.
 
They have kept him this long my thoughts are he stays
