Andre Johnson Named To All-Pro Team For First Time

In a development that's been far too long in the making, Andre Johnson of your Houston Texans was named to the All-Pro team today. That honor never really should have been in question, what with 'Dre leaving the NFL in both receiving yards and catches this past season. As Texans fans, this doesn't really qualify as news; we knew and continue to know that Andre Johnson is the best wide receiver in all of football, even if the rest of the world doesn't.

Thus, BRB offers its hearty congratulations to 'Dre. Yes, it's long overdue. Next up: Proper accolades for Super Mario and DeMeco.

Stop hitting on me.

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

To not include 'Dre on the All Pro team would have been a travesty

He is poised to be the best receiver of his era, and one of the best of all time if he can avoid injury. Clearly he is our best offensive player, and maybe the best one in the league. All we have to do is get in the playoffs next year and the recognition for ’Dre will folllow.

Think about how much better he would be

If he had Matt Turk throwing balls to him instead of you-know-who.

When I'm on the mic, I'm like global warming, you can't ignore me.

Think how good we'd be...

If Matt Turk was our 4th and long running back. Guy has wheels!
