1B4IDie Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 I'm watching the Eagles vs Texans game. The Eagles know they're going to throw to Andre Johnson, plus Johnson is gimpy, yet he somehow gets wide open for big chunks of yardage. It's amazing.
cantankerous Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 He's not nearly as fast as Evans either...

WVUFootball29 Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 How was Jerry Rice so good when guys like Rocket Ismail were way faster?
aristocrat Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 lee has a couple of 1000 yard years and if he had consistent qb play he would have had more. he is a #1 with a nice qb...see larry fitzgerald this year

jr1 Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 He doesn't mail it in like neo James Jett Lee Evans
PromoTheRobot Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Anyone think Matt Schaub looked better than Fitz tonight? PTR
bizell Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 he's big, agile, and fast with a good feel for sitting down in zones. if those traits don't work, he beats up the cb covering him :rimshot:

Because Lee Evans is getting the safetys to roll over to him. Andre Johnson is a product of another better reciever

Andre Johnson is the best receiver in football for about 8 years running. If that's your standard for a #1, only Andre Johnson meets it. If the question is "how does Andre Johnson get so open despite being injured", the answer is b/c he's Andre F.N. Johnson.

Lee is a one trick pony who relies ONLY on his speed to get open. Andre Johnson knows how to read the defense. He finds the open area. its not all about the speed.

People around here always equate Lee Evans to #1 receivers such as Andre Johnson and Calvin Johnson, which IS absurd. You support my point that Evans is not those guys, but I suppose we differ on the point that IMO Evans is a one trick pony that is barely a good #2 receiver.....he is a lesser version of Peerless Price in his prime.

This Bigger, Stronger, and just as fast If you look at a WR route tree Evans runs one excellent, two very well and the other seven average or below average- Andre Johnson is probably excellent at eight of the routes and average at two.

papazoid Posted December 3, 2010 Posted December 3, 2010 Johnson is arguably the #1 WR in the NFL.....Lee is probably around the 20th. so i guess thats like asking why can't Fitzpatrick be like Manning or Brady.
