This pure speculation, but thinking back on it, I don't think that it was a oopsy, heat-of-the-moment, OPI either. Just a series or so back in the game thread I wrote 'Flowers is in their brainz' when they ran on 3rd and long. I recall there being a marked fear of airing it out despite being so far behind.
Couple this with Johnson's acknowledgement of the contact after the game, and I picture Johnson pleading on the sidelines for that out pass promising he WILL get separation.
