What is up with Lance Johnstone?

He is way to much of a veteran to pull a bone-head rookie mistake and hit the QB when he slides feet first. I must wonder how much he was paid to throw the game!

I dont' know what the hell he was thinking bone head!

CUT HIM!!!!!!!! NOW!!!!!!!!

Bring back Chuck Wiley...he wouldn't have made the same stupid mistake.

OK that is a little drastic. The guy has 5 sacks and 3 forced fumbles this season.

It was a dumb play, but let's not cut the guy. They would of drove down the field and won the game anyway, our D is terrible right now.

Giving them 15 yds really hurt and it was at a very crucial time in the game.

agreed if he was going to get penalised for it then he should have made it worthwhile and taken Manning out of the game ..

it looked like he was in the air when manning started to slide but he kind of threw his arm at the end of the play but this guy has done great things for us the past couple years but really, this was crucial

It was kind of dirty, but I was happy because I hate Manning..but I wasnt happy about the 15 yarder obviously.

OK, BUT he is still a bone head. He lacks intelligence.

Keep the cheap shots off the field or get off the field.

This isn't the first bone head thing he has done. He has had bone head penalties previously.

Johnstone has made WAY WAY more plays for us than penalties. He's had his games, but there has also been games where he single handidly whipped ass on the offense (ie. Broncos last year) He's ended games on batted balls. He was frustrated sh*t happens move on. If anyone made any mistakes lets talk about Newmans ability to put his hands up when he goes after the QB. That pisses me off. He had chances to make play and he went after the sack.

Johnstone is a playmaker and he wants to win, you can tell by his presence on the sideline.
