Andre Johnson Out For Sunday's Game Versus Buccaneers

by Tim on Nov 11, 2011 1:22 PM CST in News

Gary Kubiak revealed after practice today that Andre Johnson will not play on Sunday in Tampa Bay.

Even if 'Dre is close to what he and the training staff believed is 100%, I believe this is the smart decision. As great as it would be to have him on Sunday, the Texans have to take a season-long look at the situation. With the bye coming next week, 'Dre essentially has an extra two weeks to heal before returning for the stretch run and--dare I say it--postseason. Giving him that extra time is the right call.

How arrogant of the Texans

Matt Schwab, Mary O' Williams, Adrian Foster, and Daniel Owens are my favorite Texans!

People from Dallas are ultimately frustrating.

When I lived there, I mostly listened to sports radio. It kept me pissed and fired up for my construction job where I’d have to butt heads with guys bigger and more experienced than me.

I have visited two or three times

Never liked it. Every time we have gone there we come back saying we will never go again. But then again who can live there and like it when everywhere you look there is a freaking Cowboys logo. In addition, they have dry counties up there. That was enough to send me back south quick!!

Dallas really embodies a lack of modesty.

Twenty thousand dollar millionaires are everywhere. It certainly isn’t Texas.

Idiot falls short

You obviously do not have to have any talent at all to write for that Dallas newspaper. I thought it was funny how he tries to use kindergarden style insults to prop up his horrible team and city. BTW the Saints and Steeler have become more of Americas team than Dallas is. I want to puke every time I hear Romo’s name. If it comes up in ESPN, I change the channel.

That is the Fort Worth paper

Which is painful. If I ever were forced to move back up there, it would be the Ft. Worth side. They are usually better than that.

Would have been nice to have Andre back, but this was a good call.

Now, let’s get 100+ yard rushing performances out of Foster and Tate again. Please?
