    the only problem I see, is that, they are not using him enough in the redzone,
    you can see the Giants game last week, Victor Cruz only had 4 catches, but 3 were TDs in the redzone, thats what I want with AJ.

    He's getting less snaps as well though. The team is trying to keep him healthy for when we need him.

    Trust me, he'll show up when we need him. Dude is too hard of a a worker and too much of a class-act to have lost much of dominance. He still has it, and you'll see it sooner or later.

    Considering they have no other receivers, Johnson isn't going to get **** because that's the only wide out that defenses have to cover. Owen Daniels is the #1 target now.

    Hmm, I went back to the article and it was the wrong one. But he definitely did say that he doesn't feel right in that leg, but isn't sure if its mental. I'll look for the source.

    Also, texanstalk had a good thread about how the surgery he had last year was a very new type of surgery, and although it helped him get back faster, it could cost long term explosiveness.

    My hope is that its still early in the season, and he just needs more time to gt back to himself, especially being 31 and recovering from an injury-plagued season.

    It seemed like Kwalt was targeted about a billion times in the 1st half, more so than OD.

    How about admitting that Cromartie was playing extremely well...AJ had a drop...but for the most part...Cromartie was AJ shadow...hence the INT...

    The only thing I'm worried about is that there are living, breathing human beings who think Andre Johnson is better than Calvin Johnson. This worries me about humanity in general. Very worried.

    Reggie Bush averaged 2.5 ypc last week. He's one of the worst starting RBs n the league.

    Well you could make the argument during last year. Not anymore. It is just hard for some fans to see somebody decline.

    Lets not get carried away here. He had a great game, but one game doesn't just make him the best again.

    1. Calvin
    2. AJ Green
    3. Fitz
    4. Andre

    Fitz and Andre can be flipped, but Fitz doesn't have a legit QB. He really hasn't had a QB like Schaub since Warner retired, but he still has put up numbers. This year his numbers are down even more though because his QB's are playing even worse. I've seen numerous plays where Fitz has been frustrated because he's open and they fail to get him the ball.

    Nobody said he was, he had a great game (so did blackmon), Andre won, smells like fantacrap, you can rank your little things however you like.

    I guess you missed the post I quoted.

    Has nothing to do with fantasy. That's real life rankings right there.
