Johnny just seems like he wants to be more serious and workmanlike in his approach, and that’s not a bad thing.
For me, effort within the play is great. Effort and “look at how much I care” after the whistle impresses me less. You get hurt by another guy and react, fine. But a big scrum after every shove or chirp wears a bit, especially if the effort wasn’t there prior to the whistle.

Don't get me wrong, I really like Johnny and Mony on this team but i think Johnny's reaction is a sign of frustration at the big picture of the direction this team is going. To make such a good play and then react like your dog died just is not good for him or the team in a game that needs to be played with emotion and usually night in and night out only number 19 is the guy trying to do that.
