Ok, do we have a QB controversy?

Probably not, but today was the first time I had hoped for Yates to be under center when Schaub was able to. Immediately after the pick 6, the QB would have been Yates for me.

Huge brain fart from Schaub today.

As much as I want to dump on Schaub, the major problem was the offensive line. People are figuring out that all we do, even on third and long, is dink and dunk passes because we have no confidence in our line.

Secondly, Pleasant should be cut. Two major ST mistakes in one game = waiver wire.

I swear Matt Schaub is the only quarterback in the league they allow to take head shots on a regular basis without ever throwing a flag. There were two obvious ones I saw, including the one where the Seahawk defender went to the hospital.

Whether it's cheap-shotted, kicked in the nuts or anything else, the Texans never retaliate. Never.

Didnt Seattle just beat us with an ever bigger piecemeal o-line than Ours? Isn't denver trotting out backups at multiple spots on the offensive line?

If you're waiting on the day that our o-line is good and healthy for 16 weeks, our running game is firing on all cylinders and none of our RBs ever turns it over, we have 2 lockdown corners and a better pass rush from our OLBs and whatever else you think this team needs to get over the hump, I'll save you 3 hours every Sunday. That day is never coming. Nobody has that. In fact, take out the QB, and I'm not sure there's a better roster in football (anyone you like more, setting aside the QB?). Nobody has all the pieces. How you cover up your inevitable deficiencies is good QB play. Trying to patch up everything else is simply shuffling deck chairs on the titanic.

Nothing will change until Kubiak's gone and I don't see Bob firing that idiot as long as the Texans keep raking in money.

Big Texas · #9 09-29-2013, 04:01 PM

We can give the whole politically correct response all we want to...but the truth of he matter is all we had to do was run the clock out and we win and Shaub damn near threw a pass with his eyes closed...then he damn near threw another one in overtime...not to mention the redzone pick he threw early on...consistent critical ill timed mistakes by your offensive captain....he needs to go...NOW...no more incomplete games

If that is true Kubiak needs to go. I've seen nothing that would convince me we would hold onto Schaub no matter what. We have had no problem replacing guys. Especially since I think Rick Smith would be the ultimate decision maker on that.

Either way we lost last week giving up 236 yards and lost this week giving up 270 (with an extra two OT possessions). When you can play that kind of defense against what are supposed to be good offenses and superbowl contenders, you should not be losing. The number one responsibility for your offense in that situation is to hold onto the ball and Tate and Schaub blew it. We could have kneeled down the 4th quarter and won. Ridiculous.

chuck · #11 09-29-2013, 04:07 PM

The team should be 4-0 and they should not have played a close game.

Complete speculation but i don't think Schaub is treated like the rest of them. Because Kubiak is the supposed QB guru, i think this is the one position Smith defers almost exclusively to Kubiak. I base this on his 2 contracts and his complete lack of competition during his tenure here. Nobody else has had the luxuries Schaub has. I attribute this to Kubiak, but again, that's a guess.

You have to have something in waiting to have a controversy. We do not have that.

Nconroe · #14 09-29-2013, 05:59 PM

Could be but we aren't sure. Yates and Keenum may not have got us to up 20-3 at halftime today, but they likely wouldn't have lobbed a pick six to opposing CB three games in a row either.

Seems to be 3 threads debating how Schaub needs to go when.

nunusguy · #15 10-01-2013, 06:20 PM

If you think you had a bad Sunday watching the Texans, try sitting in a Sports Bar in Montana with a full house of SeaHawk fans while yelling for the Texans as they dominted the game for 3 quarters then ended up losing in OT. That was a humbling experience.
Talked to my wife on the phone back in Houston and she said the town is ready to lynch Schaub. How many pic 6s for him since joining the Texans ? Three just this year, right ?
