The argument is not in the interest of getting a new QB, its just releasing frustration about a last second play (and call) that looked, for lack of a better word, unrehearsed.

No argument here. It was a screwup. Schaub is not a good off schedule QB and we won't win many games waiting for him to scramble for TDs on broken plays.

Also heard they suspect a torn pec for Mario which would mean ir. Casey may be the same injury.

I heard that, too. This season is teetering on the edge of disaster. Andy Reid is currently in the lead in good old chuck's 2012 straw poll.

Are you saying you want Andy Reid as our coach?

Just fast forwarded to that last play on the DVR, no way in hell Schaub gets into the end zone. He was @ the 5, a DB was closing in @ the 3. Looks like he tried to put it into a tight window for JJ, but obviously that didn't work.....

Also looked like they flushed him left on a play that most of his options were right.

Sucks.

I might be alone in this but I like Andy Reid a lot.

I don't think he's a bad coach but he's kind of a rich man's kubiak. Good team builder. Good Monday through Saturday guy. Terrible gameday coach. Probably the worst clock management around. Lots of the same things that frustrate you about kubs.

So you're saying it would be a comfortable transition.

Maybe with the owners meeting here in Houston this week, McNair will get some more compliments on how good his team looks when losing. That should fill him with enough confidence to think he has a top echelon team and coaching staff.
