He did not throw an interception.”I’ve always had belief in myself that I can do things like this,” Johnson told reporters after the game. “But I’ve never been one to talk about it, because talking does nothing. I’m into action. To have it go our way and be able to just have everything that’s been bottled up in my and let it out, it was a relief.”
