Where are the "Trade Johnson" threads? This guy is must be wearing tefllon gloves...criticism doesn't stick but neither does the ball
He's not used to a pass that far down the field . In fact it caught him by surprise he thought it was already dumped off . I know it took 3 points of the board cause theres no way in hell Carr was throwing a TD .
Andre and the rest of the receiving corp cant do junk in garbage time. Tired of dropped passes, we could have taken a shot at the end zone or at least had a 50/50 chance of a field goal (you never know with our guys)
I loved when AJ dropped that ball that hit him "right in the breadbasket" (to quote the announcers). I loved the part where they were shocked that he dropped a pass. They said "you won't see that very often" which was my first clue that they don't see many Texans games. Johnson constantly gets a pass on his "Corey Bradford hands".

^^^AJ HATER...
Yeah, Carr's passes that hit Andre in the chest or hands, is not AJs fault for dropping them. Osama Bin Carr lubes the ball up before he throws it to AJ.
How many does this guy drop every week? Dropped the quick slant, then drops the deeper pass in the CLUTCH situation.
Wonder if Kubiak will openly comment on his butterfingers?
Then again, Im sure its Carrs fault for putting the pass right in his numbers and hands.
hell may be i dont really like AJ either but he doesnt suck as much as the david andre is our only pro bowler may be so he cant be that bad.
Not really, cause Bradford couldn't catch anything. Easy or difficult catchs,But as Herv stated, he gets away with having "COREY BRADFORD HANDS"
Not really, cause Bradford couldn't catch anything. Easy or difficult catchs,
Bradford managed consistantly - he dropped most of them.
AJ makes a high percentage of tough catchs, really spectacular catchs.
You see that one hander today ?
Its obviously a concentration thing. He anticipates a difficult pass, the effort
gets his undivided attention. Anticipating an easy reception, his mind wanders
to running after the catch and he loses concentration on the incoming ball.
How can you have over 3,000 posts and actually believe that Corey Bradford couldn't catch anything. You have to know that's bull right? Bradford was the master of the acrobatic catch. He made catches that AJ wishes he could make. The difficult catches were never a problem for Corey Bradford. They were his stock and trade.
Corey couldn't catch the simple passes. He'd catch a 30 yard pass one handed while leaping in the air upside down and come down in stride on one play and then drop one placed right in his hands while he stood still with nobody around him on the next play. He was money if it looked like it might make a highlight reel but useless if you needed a first down to keep a drive alive on 3rd and 8.
That's why I say AJ has Corey Bradford Hands. Not nearly as bad a case of them as Corey had but he still drops the gimmies way too often.
AJ might very well go to the Pro Bowl this year, but invitations to the Pro Bowl are stat driven. And we all know how misleading stats are.That's why I say AJ has Corey Bradford Hands. Not nearly as bad a case of them as Corey had but he still drops the gimmies way too often.

Wasn't the knock on AJ coming out of college his hands?
He does a good job of positioning with his body but he rarely goes UP to get the ball over the smaller DB.
Good observation!
Elite receivers not only go UP to get the ball, but know exactly WHEN to go UP. DBs are usually impatient, and leap too soon. Great receivers (Anthony Carter for example) are on the way up while the DBs are already on the way down.

Which is exactly what happened last week against the Bills. Nate Clements went up and over AJ to sang that INT out of AJ's hands. I watched the replay about 15 times.
not exactly. Carr got hit as he was throwing the ball. It was sailing, and went right to Clements. AJ got their late, and got one hand on the ball, and tried to rip it out.
The ball hit AJ in the hands and Clements jumped over the top of him and ripped the ball out of AJ's hands. Go to the Buffalo Bills website and watch the replay, they show it from the opposite side of the field.
First, you need to stop hanging around on the buffalo bills website, second, do they show David getting hit as the ball is being released?? Do they show AJ changing his route to get to the ball?? because he jumped in to try to strip it from Nate. he never had two hands on the ball, as he came down and landed on one of those hands while his other was still on the ball.

BEST VERTICAL: Nate Clements He out jumped 63 Andre Johnson for a first quarter interception which was also his first pick of the season. (Honorable mention to Houston LB Shantee Orr who leaped right over Anthony Thomas to sack Losman).
How about that Carr throwing behind the line of scrimmage? Oh yeah that is the sign of true talent! What 2 yards here and 5 yards there is good for you?
Lousy memory ? Honestly, I can remember Bradford catching the pass in the inaugural game that all the Cowboys haters are so sentimental about, butHow can you have over 3,000 posts and actually believe that Corey Bradford couldn't catch
Well heck, since it says so on a Bills website, I guess I should believe it, and not what my eyes see......
I've got the game recorded, and I watched that play several times. That ball did not go where David wanted it to. AJ was running to the outside, Nate was on top, running with him, till he saw the ball heading right for him, he broke off of AJ, and went back to get the ball. AJ had to turn inside just to get in position to try to get it away from Clements.
Look, there are a lot of things we can bash AJ about. He runs poor routes... he drops way too many balls..... he doesn't block worth a darn.. & for all his play making ability, we need more vocal leadership out of him.
But he didn't get out jumped on that play.

Andre Johnson and David Carr have one thing in common. I don't remember the last time either one of them came through in the clutch.
I'll tell ya what, let AJ go and keep Carr. Do it, dammit!!!
Bingo! I still go back to the Bills game on a 3rd and 2 that these two no. 1 draft picks could not complete. I'm at the point of realizing that neither of these players are clutch, because that should have been a gimme' play after Carr completed 22 in a row earlier in the game.
Elite players seal the deal when it matters. Good players have good stats, but that does not make them elite.
Carr lover's need to find an excuse for him to stay in town. I remember they blamed Palmer alot for his problem's. Now palmer is back at the Cowboy's organization and look what he did to Romo. Hmmm it makes you wonder...
