Adam Jones had his arm pinned, and he caught the ball one handed for a first down to keep the drive alive on third down. I am not saying Thomas is elite, but those are the kinds of catches that AJ simply does not make. I think Eifert could and would, but not AJ. When he starts making those, he will truly be scary.
Might have. And there have been a lot of catches Thomas has not made. I don't see any receiver make them all. The closest in the game to doing that right now is Antonio Brown - and he doesn't get them all.
I'm not happy with all the stuff that AJ does/ does not do. I think he could really use to work with the DBs for 15 - 20 minutes of every practice to learn how to break on the ball defensively. And I too was mystified as to why he quit on the route. But it wasn't out of laziness, just a bad decision. Hopefully he doesn't do that again.
But I still put him in the elite category. And he made some sick catches in that game. Hopefully they all take their game to another level over the next month.
