Gary Kubiak Presser

[Grams]

He is committed to Matt because we cannot take the cap hit to let him go.

This is a great interview.

It's on me?

The kids are still improving?

Brady and Flacco look like cheetahs compared to Schaub. Disheartening.

Dude, I genuinely believe most of the people posting on this board could out run schaub.

Flacco yes, but Brady? Are you serious? When did he run in our two games to prove this to you? He is not more mobile than Schaub, but he does have better pocket awareness and moves better in the pocket. But he is not "more mobile".

Moving in the pocket is mobility , combined with pocket awareness , makes him look like Sugar Ray Leonard compared to Schaub .

Pretty close. This is the "official station of the Houston Texans" so they really can't give Kubiak too hard a time. Wouldn't really be much of a point either, if they want to keep him coming on & answering questions.... which I do like them doing.

When they aren't talking to a Texans, or Rick Smith, or McNair, they can get pretty brutal. I think they all agree with what's being said on this board, that Matt was the biggest issue & he's playing over his head.

But, being that they share your thoughts, I thought the questions were pretty interesting & as tough as it can get in this situation.

In short, this is not a presser, this is not the media trying to get to the bottom of anything. These shows are a partnership between the team & the radio station.

I checked nfl combine 40 times.

Schaub - 5.04 (days)
Brady - 5.24

In lucky's defense he did say "look like cheetahs." Foster looks way slower then he really is. Schaub looks like a freaking beached whale when he runs.

I noticed that as well. I also like he said he encourages Yates to be ready. This league is all about making the most of your opportunities. If he gets his chance to get on the field again, he best make the most of it, because it might be his last.

Seth Payne is on now. He's got a regular job with the station now. I think he gives us better insight as to what it's like in that locker room than Kalu does on 790.


I listen to Cook & Kalu on 790, but that's it.


Payne is talking about Matt's audible system.

I was talking about the inability of Schaub to audible hurting the Texans just the other day. Manning, Brady, Ryan and Rogers all do it because they are elite and trusted to know how to read a defense.

And yet I heard a schaub sound bite telling us he's elite because of how well he understands the offense and defenses. Hmmm. Give him complete freedom next season for one game against a weak opponent and see what happens. If it's not working we can scrap it after a few drives/quarters whatever.

The same thing he said I've been saying for a while. It's ass obvious with how we operate. It's very mechanical which limits how we can attack defenses.

And much lime Seth I don't know if kubiak fully trusts schaub. Maybe he needs to.

I don't know that Seth has any more insight to Kubiak's offense than Vince Wilfork. But his understanding of Matt's ability is pretty much what we understand. He can check to a run play, he can change from a run to the left or to the right, he is expected to know the hot routes but that's about it.

However, he also acknowledges when the offense is working. It's really working & there is no need to audible.

Personally I feel if Matt is not capable of extending plays, if HE doesn't have a big time arm, then he needs the freedom to exploit a gross mismatch.

[Thorn]

Look, I don't like Schaub either, but unless he physically can't play, he's the starter next year.

IDK, brady atleast tries when he has to. Schaub would never do this:
