No one gets mad if you point out Hill needs to protect the ball more.  He does. He fumbled way too often last year. 
There's also a few other nuances to his game that could be pointed out. But no one gets mad if you do.

You mention how AJ has disappeared like everyone else in the playoffs or how he hasn't won the jump ball like he used to, and you are being "pissy"

Saying a guy hasn't won a contested ball in two years is hardly a minor criticism.

People really just kind of fabricate things to criticize him about because he can't be all things to all people and it gripes certain people that some players don't get what is somehow perceived as their fair share of criticism because everyone considers themselves a critic.

So, instead of appreciating him for what he is, some people will get on him for what he isn't.

He is not, nor will ever be, Calvin or Boldin or Julio Jones.  He is not a physical player.  He's not the first great receiver who isn't physical and he certainly won't be the last.

Any jump ball he's ever won has been one where he got up higher, not because he fought it out of a defender's hands. 

The receiver has to come down with the ball.  All the defender has to do is knock it down.

If you say he doesn't always come back for the ball, that I will agree with.
