They overpaid for Johnson to build the defense around him with the same philosophy Rex used for Revis. He goes man to man as an island and that frees the other Dbs etc for better coverage. But it's a hard job and you are not always going to be successful covering great receivers, etc. You will get beat or a smart play will work. But it's based on percentages. It works more often than not if you have the right corner. As for bad judgment by players esp DBs involved in battles with offensive players you see it all the time. It's a war and a psychological battle. And you get dumb plays that result in penalties. At times I've seen Johnson look like the player they think he is. The HC is a former player and DB himself and he isn't going to over discipline a player for taking a bad penalty or two even ones that have nothing to do with a play. Trash talking, taunting, etc. He probably talks to the guy and I see on the field other players trying to restrain teammates. But in a violent game it's not that easy to turn on or turn off. You'd hope for 15 mil per he starts playing smarter. 

Not happening. Once again the Jets have ridiculously overpaid for the great white whale known as a shutdown corner. Rams wanted nothing to do with him. Should have been a clue.
