"It's a completely different personnel, so we're going to do what our guys do best," Johnson said. "I think we've got weapons in every room… It's going to be hard on us coaches to make sure that we're getting everyone the ball… This is the same game plan in preseason that I've done for the past four years, so the plays should look the same… Once we get into the season, we'll have a little bit more fun."
