    Sheesh, talk about a complete turnaround. A week ago he didn't think he wanted to play here, now he's talking about working here after he retires.

    He truly is Mr. Texan.

    FINALLY some good sports news in Houston. It's been a brutal summer for us.

    Andre is the ultimate pro. He may get frustrated, but he's a gamer, and he's committed. Gotta love it.

    $$$$ = loyalty in this instance

    AJ becoming our receivers coach when we retires would be awesome

    Of course, Andre Johnson's absence from the Texans was solely the fault of...Andre Johnson. So, explain to me why we were supposed to side with the guy keeping Andre Johnson off the Texans

    And, if we're being honest, the Texans were nothing WITH him last year.

    I can't explain to you because some fans don't understand that the NFL is a business and not high school football, have no respect and appreciation for what these athletes do, and or feel the athletes get paid enough and should just be grateful to be in the NFL.

    But I can explain to you that all of this is Rick Smith's/Kubiak's fault because he wants to renege on his end of the deal because he gave Schaub and Cushing free money and has been messing over draft picks for years and forced AJ to use his leverage.

    You guys are basically taking Rick Smith's side... You should go get you a Rick Smith jersey.


    I disagree... AJ is still "Box Office." He puts butts in seats and eyes on the TV, he sales merchandise, and he's H.O.F. bound... Those things are very important to McNair's bottom line which is why he had to step in and handle this...

    Like I said, the NFL is a business and not high school football.

    Thats not saying much. The Texans were nothing WITH JJ Watt too if you want to go that route.

    Still early but lining up AJ, Nuk, CJ, and Foster/Blue seems appealing. Good reports early from Blue. Want to see what CJ can do.

    Our TE situation gives us the ability to be very flexible with our formations. I am very excited to see 22 personnel with AJ, Nuk, Graham, and CJ/Griffin as well as having Arian out of the backfield.

    Vice President has a nice ring to it. Dre is a quiet guy I'm sure he'd rather be in the front office and the owners box than on the sideline

    Dre is qualified to do Cal McNair's job.

    Glad Andre is back. He said all the right things during his conference... some were lies, other things I can only hope he was truthful.
