JJ1223 1,849 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Don't feel great just bc it's against Indy, sitting for Aiyuk and Conner. Next week against Cinci firing him up fo sho though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Or, better said...how they don't use him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The team is lacking WR and TE talent yet continues to underutilize him in the pass game. You'd think with Watson they'd be such a great match, too. More dump offs to DJ opens more running lanes for your QB I'd think, right? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gohawks 10,075 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Indy run defense hasn’t been the best lately. DJ is really all they have as well. Obviously it’s all team dependent but he’s a solid start. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leopard 140 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Deforest Buckner will play for the colts defense which doesn’t bode well for DJ but buckner isn’t not 100%...still starting DJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm also super frustrated with how Houston uses DJ. Or, better said...how they don't use him. Because they’ve used Duke in that aspect and now he’s out. If he is ever going to give us something like 12/50/1 and 7/70/1 it’s this week. Would be nice to see shades of prime DJ and with Duke out it’s probably the best chance. Pretty annoying watching him go for like 15/50 with one or two catches. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TroutFister 551 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 happy to see him have a great game! the fact they didn't use him this way all year, was a fn joke. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CooL 3,248 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 This was a vintage DJ game. At one point, this guy was called the best receiving back in the NFL. It's criminal that they didn't use him in a 3 down role and tried to make Duke Johnson a thing. Duke Johnson will never be a thing. He's had multiple years and multiple chances to become one. What's frustrating reading the blurbs say things like "If Duke is out again next week, then DJ's stock shoots up again". Uh, the dude just caught 11 passes for 106 yards. Are they expecting Duke to do any better? Feed the ball to DJ to justify that terrible Hopkins trade! 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Solidarity, just get a TD and we're cool I guess? I've had him on this team since the rookie year. Lets end it with one last..............simply ok performance that I won't hate you for, DJ. He did it! He really did it. 6 seasons of ups and downs, I barely even use him this year, plug him in just hoping for a dozen or so, and wham, week winner. Still putting him back on the pine next week, this is NOT happening twice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JJ1223 1,849 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I've had blind faith in this man since his MVP caliber season of 2016. It's time to collect. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The G Man 1,016 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Great game out of DJ to close out the FF season. A little too late for me I'm afraid, but hopefully he helped some of you all in your playoffs. Definitely like his usage these past couple of games. He'll never replicate 2016 again, but he can still be a serviceable RB2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CooL 3,248 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 These last two games are a reminder of why I drafted DJ this year. Vintage DJ from before his injuries. Why did it take a Duke injury for the Houston coaches to realize how to use DJ? I know it. You know it. And we're just armchair coaches watching from our own homes. How come these professional coaches couldn't tap his talents? DJ still delivered me a ship but it was a frustrating season owning him between the usage, the injuries/concussion, and the Covid. All is forgiven however when the trophy is hoisted. I'll target him again next year but his price might be just as high now. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
