Johnson showed little burst of speed, struggled picking up blitzes - he said the offense was surprised how much the Ravens blitzed -- and botched the only pass that was thrown his way.

Late in the first quarter, Washington was pinned near its own goal line. On 1st-and-10 from the three-yard line, McNabb threw a short pass to Johnson out of the backfield. Johnson had space around him and seemed to notice it. He took his eye off the ball and he bobbled the pass a couple of times before it bounced away.

"That Baltimore defense, I'm not facing that every day in practice," said Johnson. "You kind of just go back to the drawing board and keep moving."
