Just About Ready to Close the Book on Schaub

[HJam72]

Since I mentioned Kubiak, why do we make one of our big long pass attempts go to LeStar Jean turtling down the sideline with a corner hopping and skipping along, stride for stride, with joy and melody in his heart???

AJ, Posey, & Martin are ALL faster than him; so are the corners...

The defense knows that and leaves him one on one for that reason.

I would add that the D just gets tired after a while with the O not keeping the ball long enough. Today, I'm also pretty sure I saw them stop trying to tackle as much as everybody is trying the knock the ball out or strip it, because the D understandably has little faith in our O to get 2 TDs in 8 minutes or less, especially 5 minutes or less. This is not the first time I've seen this. They give up first downs, but at least they are trying to do something, unlike our O that just kind of melts out there.

1 of my biggest problems with this team thus far...we keep doing the same **** and its not working. We have now thrown that fly route to jean 3 straight games and not once has this dude been anywhere close to open. HE'S JUST NOT FAST ENOUGH SO STOP THROWING THAT **** KUBIAK!!!!!!

He had his CB beat, it was just over thrown. We have seen Jean go deep a few times once he dropped the ball once while hitting the ground, and the other 2 he was open the throws were just bad.

You know I feel like I am back in the HWWNBN days. I defended that dude too long and I defended Schaub too long but not as long as I did HWWNBN.

Last year I went on record saying having Schaub in the post season would have made the difference in the Texans playoff success. Now I know I was just delusional.

Schaub: we have to find a way to correct some things and turn them into positives.

At least he has figured it out now guys.

I wonder if James Harden can play QB?

I don't know what angle you looking from but seems to me a perfect throw can get to Jean's hands.

Yeah I didn't get that either. Jean beat his man and was open (did his job), it was just a poorly inaccurate deep ball (where have we seen that before?).

The Rockets at least make me happy. They know how to work the cap and make the right trades.

Are we really having this discussion about a QB who has thrown for 4,000+ yards in 3 of the last 4 seasons and was on pace to throw for 4,000+ when he broke his foot last year?

I'm as disappointed as anyone, but come on.

We're worse than average at LG and WR2345.
We're bad at RG RT and FB.

That's half the offense and doesn't even account for the RBs playing like dog crap for big stretches.

Other than Brown, most of this team's premium contracts and draft picks have gone to acquiring defensive players and yet, year after year Schaub and Kubiak carry the offense to a high ranking.

Schaub is not a problem and certainly not the problem.

Name me a qb that has started all 16 games of a season in the last five years and did not at least get in the neighborhood of 4,000 yards. This isn't 1978. 4,000 yards is pretty much base level, average

Schaub's crucial interceptions say otherwise.

[MEGA SWATT]

Matt Schaub is done. Bring in Vick and put Matt Schaub in as back up like the good old days......

Andre was about to be wide open for a td on that one to Daniels. Would have been in the open five yards clear of everyone. Those are the types of plays that don't get talked about that a good qb would make, which brings me back to my initial point that Texans fans, for the most part, simply aren't sophisticated enough football fans to understand what they do or don't have with Schaub at qb.
