Thoughts with Jim Johnson:

Looks like the Eagles D coordinator may not being coaching this season. Going for his 2nd round of chemo therapy. I hope he pulls through, he's a staple of the NFL and one of the best at his job. My thoughts go out to him, his family, and the Eagles.

Link incoming, just heard it on NFL radio.

Definitely. I was surprised he even considered coaching this season. From all I've heard, it's really serious. There's a rumor that it's spread to his brain, but I don't know if that's legit.

i feel for him, and his family. he looked really bad the other day , when i saw him on T.V. seems like a really good guy

Cancer is a nasty thing. Chemotherapy is not much better. As tough as it is for him, it's just as tough for his family. Keep him and his family in your prayers.

man that sucks. johnson is one hell of a coach. i hope he pulls through.

I hate to see anyone going through that type of illness or situation. Hopefully healthier days are ahead for him.

Hope for the best ,,, if I had one wish it would be to end all disease .

As much as i hate the Eagles, i have always had respect for their defense and Coach Jim Johnson. Prayers are with him and his family as they endure these hard times.

Jim Johnson's defenses are fun to watch for any NFL fan. Except when he was tearing up your team. Hopefully he pulls through ok.

Clearly football is but a spit in the ocean of life here...but since this is a football board...losing Jim Johnson plus their leader on the field defensively (Brian Dawkins) this could really hurt the Eagles.
