Jungletiger Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Update: Sack watch; All handsGEOFF HOBSON Posted Nov 5, 2009 Update: 1:35 p.m. This could be the week rookie right end Michael Johnson gets that first NFL sack. That's when it happened for the guy on the other side, Robert Geathers Geathers got his first career sack when he dumped Cowboys quarterback Vinny Testaverde in the eighth game of his rookie season, Nov. 7, 2004 at Paul Brown Stadium. Johnson has been close and Geathers says, "He's doing a lot of good things," but he knows that these are anxious moments for a young player. He knows because he had them and he's counseling Johnson to be patient and to keep doing what they're telling him to do "Defensive ends, D-linemen, you dream to get sacks," Geathers said before Thursday's practice. "Once you get that first one, you got that swag, like, 'I can get back there now.' It's kind of mental. Once he gets that first one it will get rolling for him."
