One Million dollars!

 

well he deserves it. that just means we'll have to wait until at least 2015 to finally beat the Texans.

 

Absolutely deserves it.

Best receiver in the game. The total package. And you get the added rare bonus of him being humble, low-key, etc. No attitude. No off-field issues. Nothing.

Best thing Houston did was get him a real QB. After that he was fully unleashed. Dude caught 101 passes and still averaged 15.5 ypc last year. Monster.

 

A new deal really wasn't necessary. He's already making a lot w/ 5 years remaining on his previous deal.

 

He can ask for more if he feels his window to make big money might be closing. Greedy or not, get your piece of the pie, young man!


...and the same applies to Johnson. :shifty:

 

Good for Johnson best WR in the game IMO you will see a big drop off for fitz this year IMO

 

^ You said it.

 

When your the best, you get the best money. Hes the best. If they can afford that contract, and keep the team in tact, more power to him.

 

Texans give All-Pro WR Johnson an extension through 2016

-Link-

 

Not only did they make Johnson happy, but this is just good business.

Other players in that locker room and around the league, as well as their agents, take note of how that team takes care of its players. The fact that they redid a deal with five years left on it for the purpose of paying their guy what he's now worth on the open market makes the Texans that much more attractive.

You look at New England and San Diego -- and NYJ to an extent, where they've got top players holding out and have a developed a track record of playing games in this arena. They're all winners, but they consistently have a few unhappy stars. New England is not the destination it once was IMO.

 

Now if only we can beat them.....
