    Houston would be he's at the moment had he not have dropped that pass right before halftime.

    Jayson Braddock even changed his tune today.

    Great game

    Good for him. Good to see people can admit when they're wrong

    It's a sprain that might sideline him from 4-6 weeks.

    Same thing Fuller supporters have been saying.... "if he (Fuller) can make plays like today, it's a good pick".

    I was a draft day doubter, but today he looked good. Hope he can keep it up.

    Amen. He might turn into a hell of a football player.

    Who knows, maybe he can overcome those tiny hands.

    Yup, today we saw the good and the bad parts about him and the good was more than the bad.

    I'd bet there's <10 stat-lines in franchise history with 20+ ypc with 100 yards.

    I'd also bet Dre has <4

    Dre had two in his rookie year. Two more in 2007. Another in 2009 and one in 2010. One in 2012 (plus one where he had 273 yards on "only" 19.5 ypc). One in 2013 (on 229 yards).

    And he was also asked to to catch short catches for first downs, move the chains, be the safety outlet for crappy QBs which dropped his ypc. There were many where he was close. Heck he had a year where he had 1550+ yards on 15.5 ypc

    Looking at the highlights, he looks like he's faster than everyone else.

    Exciting stuff.

    Then you throw in Hopkins and Miller so the defense can't focus on one guy.

    Still have Braxton too.

    His tiny hands are a blessing.

    They make him lighter and able to run faster.

    Good call

    Easy to research once I tried.

    He had 8.... 3 or 4 or those added a TD.

    Still think most fans would figure a higher total.

    Dre did come close a few times with 19.0+

    Oh, and one of the games as a rookie he had 122 yards on 30 ypc.

    This was on an expansion franchise.

    I'm wondering what the other elites (Moss, Calvin, Fitzgerald etc) have on that stat
