I mean what were some people expecting, a 60 TD year like his senior year of college? Good grief.
Absolutely correct and this can't be emphasized enough. Add in you're going against a very good D ranked into the upper 3rd of the NFL a season ago and as fine a DL as there is in the NFL and he was excellent. Missed AJ deep but made a fine pass to Ross who simply has no idea how to go up and catch or track a ball or how to reel a ball in and there's 7 points right there.
Terrible call on AJ as there are no-calls all day long on plays where WR's extend their arm far more than AJ did. More thyan being terrible it's just an inconsistent call thru-out games.
