What kind of a come back do you guys think he will make this week. What expectations do you have for him the rest of the year.

Nothing too special, although I do expect him to be in the 5-6 reception range and 70+ yards. Definitely a no. 3 starter or number 2. I think he'll heat up at the end of the season as he gets more healthy. Not someone I would look to trade, but trading for him isn't a terrible idea. Not sure of his schedule though, so look into that before dumping someone with a better playoff schedule or schedule in the next 3 games that could help now.

is he really healthy or just playing

[Triplec223]

From what I gather, he is 95 to 100% healthy. He is not listed on the injury report and has been fully involved in practice this week. Houston took their sweet time getting him back, and he has had about 9 weeks of rest. I'd say he's back in top playing shape, but the problem will be getting back into the game after that layoff. I'm going to agree with the above poster and say 5-7 catches, 70+ yards and a VERY good chance of at least one TD.

Andre Johnson will probably score 2 TDs against New Orleans this Sunday.

I'd agree with the 70+ range and a TD probably, I heard Schaub was coming back too, so maybe there rapport earlier in the season will still be there? He should be real good down the stretch, although I don't know about how there schedule looks.

How much can you reaaly expect out of a guy whose career high is 6 touchdowns? I am guessing, judging by his track record, he will score one more TD this year, and that's if he is healthy.

AJ has had David Carr throwing to him every year, that's why his career high is 6 TDs. We've seen what David Carr can turn a quality WR like Steve Smith, which is basically fantasy mediocrity, so you can't go by AJ's track record to determine how many more TDs he'll get the rest of the year. If AJ stays healthy, and Schuab does too, I believe he can easily catch 5-6 more TDs.

So let me get this straight. Andre Johnson has only had 6 touchdowns in a single year because David Carr has was holding him back. But, he will score 6 TD's in 7 games because he has something called Matt Schaub (11 CAREER TD passes/13 career INT's) throwing him the ball? Please, explain why you think Matt Schaub will double Andre Johnson's TD production.

BTW, Carr has a better career QB rating and TD/INT ratio than Schaub.

Probably a thing where you just have to see them play... Have you seen what david carr has done to steve smith? Not to mention the whole texans team has improved since the carr years, so that will help johnson out also.
