Few have questioned Rob Johnson's ability as a quarterback. Fleet of foot and with a strong arm, he possesses all the physical tools required to excel.
What Johnson has lacked are the decision-making skills necessary to succeed, and Bucs coach Jon Gruden admitted this week that he's not sure Johnson has improved in that area.
``At times Rob has displayed outstanding ability throwing the ball in rhythm and made good decisions,'' Gruden said. ``There are other plays, however, where Rob Johnson is determined to get on ESPN as the lead story on your evening news broadcast.
``Every play is a highlight reel with him and we've got to eliminate some of those plays from our football here. What he has to understand is that sometimes the best play to make is to throw the ball away or check the ball down because that's the only play.''
How true is that?!?!?!?
