Then I consider that a success since he took total advantage of a team with a weak defense. Isn't that what you should expect from a quality, NFL starter? And since Schaub met expectations (I'd say exceeded, since no one expected 500+ yds against any NFL defense) shouldn't that be counted as a success??

Take a look at their third down conversion rate , starting with the Titans game ....

Then I guess we ought to consider Ponder's performance against us last Sunday as a success rather than an aberration.

Scarier is Schaub's 3rd and 9 conversions this year. I heard Brady and Brees in that situation both came out with somewhere between 100 and 110 QB rating, while Schaub........~35.

Think about what it takes to be successful on 3rd and long ..... Good protection , good QB play along with recievers getting open.


Take a look at the 1-11 third down conversion rate against the Vikings alone .... How many times did Schaub have to get rid of the ball early , throwing to recievers well short of the first down mark ???


The OL didnt protect and Schaub wasnt able to buy time ... recievers didnt have time to reach the marker.


You have a breakdown of two of the three things it takes to be successful .... is there any wonder why they were 1-11 ?!
