Yep. It's no surprise.

Also Johnson recorded 56 QB hits and hurries in 2013, both of which ranked in the top 11 of all NFL pass rushers. His 61 total pressures were 14th in the league.
I agree that Dunlap is better, but Johnson was much more then "meh" when it came to getting pressure on the QB.
9.5, 4.5, 6, 7.5, 8, 9.5+.....
3, 2.5, 6, 11.5, 3.5, 4, 4+.....
Which one is a fluke again? If anything, Dunlap's 4.5 is more of the fluke considering he was splitting time more than MJ was getting fewer chances....
His pass rush is always meh. The pressures are nice but that's about all he contributes. He's an average NFL pass rusher.
