So would Schaub have scored if he had run?

Or would he have been crushed?

For a split second I yelled RUN!!! but then I saw the Raider safety closing in on him.

Did Schaub blow the game by not running a measly five yards?

I thought he was gonna run... good thing he didn't. Might be 3 key players down if he did. :pirate:
 
i seen the DT running toward him and the DB running for him but the DT had his back 2 him i think if he ran to the right on a slant and make the DT miss maybe if he ran and leaped with his arms streched out or ran with his head down maybe

But he decided to throw to JJ instead thats a head sctracher to me i thought Matt was smarter then that

But its whatever now
 
Huff would have tackled him.

What's clear is Schaub and Jacoby have no connection. Matt rolled to the left and Jacoby was running away from him to the right.

I know right I dont know why Matt Trusted JJ i hope they Bench JJ
 
It looked like he had a good shot at getting in there, but it also looked like their defenders might have stopped him. It would have been very close.

Woulda, coulda, shoulda.........Time to move on to next week.

Oh boy, on the road against Balty. :toropalm:
 
I was at the game and thoguht he should have ran it in..... But after seeing the replays after I got home, I don't think he would have made it.

It doesn't matter now anyway. Tuff lose for sure....:rake:
 
Vince Young would have scored there.

He hesitated too long and should have thrown it away when the play blew up. We could have had one more play.
 
He should have run and dived into the endzone.

Schaub is a loser.

He had the run easy.

What an ***** Schaub is.
 
No one knows if he makes it or not. However, he had a better chance of scoring if he had run it, rather then just throw it to the opposition. A stiff arm and a dive MAY have gotten most QBs 6 points, but Schuab is incredibly weak when it comes to running or just moving in general.

If he had not hesitated, he could have very well made it in.............If he had not hesitated, he could have very well thrown it away and had another play.

As he DID hesitate, he threw away any chance of a TD.
 
the only defender with a chance was at a poor angle. schaub would've gotten hit, but he would've scored.

No, he wouldn't have made it. I was sitting in the second row of seats right in front of the play, so I can tell you that Tyvon Branch would have stopped him which is what made Schaub throw it.

possibly, i would re watch it to see, but i cant bear reliving that twice in 1 day

there were 3 noticable defenders. huff on jacoby outside, a defender about 4 yards to schaub's left and 2-3 yards in the endzone (the one that would hit schaub), and a defender trailing a receiver coming across schaub who was shielded and couldnt make the play.

the threatening defender would've hit schaub at the 1(ish) if schaub angled away from him, and the trailer would've had to make a super move to get schaub at the goalline (no chance if our receiver blocks). either way, momentum and angle would've put schaub into the endzone.

maybe it was the view on tv, but branch(?) didnt look like he had an angle to stop schaub. hit him, certainly, but not in a way to keep him out.
 
its been fun reading this... mentally ticking anybody who thinks he shouldve run & wouldve made it as pretty clueless. there are things schaub couldve done on that play... running it in was not 1 of them
 
“The man choked,” Oakland defensive tackle Tommy Kelly said. “He could have run it in. I’m happy we got the pick. But the ball was on like the five-yard line. All he had to run in. He wanted to throw him another touchdown. He threw a pick.”

Punked by an opposing player.

This is just embarrassing.

Lol. Re-read your post to yourself. SLOWLY.

So, you think YOU know what Schaub could have done? Ok. lol.

Matt had been limping since the hit on his knee by Seymore.

Wow.

I don't think it has anything to do with Schaub wanting to throw another TD.

I think he was trying to avoid the pain of the hit.

But I agree with Tommy Kelly. Schaub would have made it.

And I think if you watch the replay and study the look on Schaub's face after he threw the pick, you can see it in his eyes----he knew he would have made it, too.
 
its a lose lose spot if he ran and was stuffed everyone would have been screaming on TT, why did he run? I think at that position 1 of the recievers needed to make a play and create seperation. Schaub is a thrower not a runner he just had no one to throw too.
 
He would have been crushed, easily. More importantly, why was Jacoby running toward the post when Schaub was headed for the sideline?

This. Where's the poise to know that reading the play and getting rid of the ball is the right play?

Schaub's got to be the least athletic starting QB in the NFL. Hurt knee or not.

i think most ppl (with a clue) who have watched schaub realise he isnt gonna make it in with a big safety who runs a 4.3 closing on him

rewatch the play. schaub looks like hes thinking of running it after he escapes the pressure right at the 7 yd line. then he sees branch sprinting at him from around the -1 yd line = he wouldve like been tackled around the 4-5 yd line = no td
 
i have it paused at the "moment of truth".

schaub is at the 9 yard line moving toward the goalline.

daniels is going left to right, dragging a defender out of the play.

jacoby and huff are out of the play at the sideline, middle of the endzone.

a defender is 3 yards deep in the endzone, starting to move towards schaub and angled outside. 3 yards outside of schaub.

dreesson is posted up like shaq, 4 yards in the endzone, 2 yards to schaub's right (behind daniels) ... touchdown

93 (kelly?) is chasing from the rear, would be close to schaub at around the 1 if schaub cuts inside.

schaub at the 8 yard offers an ugly dump-pump fake and (as always) bolts for the sideline. the open defender has his sights set. had schaub simply tucked and run inside, he earns a couple bruises, but scores.

agree Jones should have cut back towards the sideline, easy TD, but no he just kinda stops and stands there like hmmmm what should i do.
 
To answer the question, YES, I think he would have made it, IF he hadn't be so scared of getting hit. IF you really want to win a game, you take chances when you are in the clutch. Matts a wuss, and just frankly did NOT want to win this game bad enough!! JMO!! After all, "it's only one game" which is a quote he made last year. Seems his attitude hasn't changed. Our QB just does not have that killer instinct, he's totally non emotional. That's JMO also!!

lol you dont know what ur looking at

that pump fake was made in the hope it would make branch (who had decided to leave the EZ and go straight for schaub by that pt) freeze as it wouldve been the only way he had any chance of making the EZ running. it didnt, branch still came sprinting full speed. thats when mat looped to the sideline to buy time for jj to get open (which in hindsight knowing jj was a dumb move)

edit: if schaub goes straight line kelly & branch crush him at the 3-4 yd line
 
Schaub would have had to run over 33, who was hauling ass straight for him as soon as he came out of that terrible pocket, to get into the endzone. Looks like they would have met at about the 3 if he hadn't turned and tried to make a throw to Jacoby, who apparently decided the best thing to do would be to step back behind Huff.
 
Hell NO he wouldn't have made it. Even if he committed to the run early. He's not fast, he can't juke a guy, and he's easy to bring down. He did the right thing by pretending to run to try to draw in the defender, but they didn't bite. He knew time was up and forced something to JJ. Usually AJ would bail him out there with an amazing catch... but JJ is no AJ.
 
I have to see the replay, but I would guess, no.

A defender was coming. Breathe on Schaub and he curls up into the fetal position.

No way in HELL he makes it in. Trying to run it in is #13 on the list of 14 things he could have done there. Unfortunately #14 is what he actually did.
