Anyone else noticed Schaub pulling a "Manning" during some of his sacks?

Has anyone else noticed how it seems as is Schaub's pocket awareness has increased just enough so far this year to where he'll fall to the ground very often in a Peyton Manning-esque fashion about a half second before an inevitable sack? In the past he might have tried to work his way out of it, which has let to both fumbles and increased the chance of Schaub getting injured. Kudos to the Texans' staff for obviously working with him this offseason on that move, it will keep him healthy and reduce turnovers, and its just another sign of Schaub's maturing into a special quarterback. I'll take a 5 yard loss over a fumble or Schaub getting injured any day of the week.

Yeah, I saw Schaub do that atleast twice Sunday. I don't blame him at all. I've seen Farve do this before also. Matt still got hit plenty Sunday, probably he's still sore, but not injured.

We need to get better protection from the Oline. Are you listening Rashad Butler? Otherwise just keep ducking and bobbing Matt.

From what i saw, Butler did his job for the most part, Schaub was holding the ball way to long and running to the side instead of stepping up allowed Ware to have a huge day.

Yea even on that one sack that Butler gave up, Kubiak said it was on Matt.

Most certainly was. Matt hung on to the ball forever on that play.
