1. Is Josh Johnson a fit for the Baltimore Ravens?

The Baltimore Ravens very well may move on from Tyler Huntley. When Greg Roman was the offensive coordinator, Huntley was a stylistic fit for the offense. Now that Todd Monken is calling the plays, he may want someone with a bigger arm to be that option. That is why the team signed Josh Johnson.

Johnson is a journeyman who has bounced around the NFL, but he has a bigger arm than Huntley, and he fits the Monken offense more than Huntley. So, is it a huge surprise that Johnson started over Huntley?

Huntley was getting third quarterback treatment, and he even got banged up in the game. When you add in that the Ravens could save a couple of million in cap space by moving on from Huntley, his roster spot is in jeopardy. A move like this will take more than this week, but Josh Johnson set the table for getting himself locked on the roster.
