Doh!
Not for poor play, but rather to rest up. He has had the hell beat out of him the last couple of weeks and could use the time off. Perhaps it could help.

Thanks for your support!
I would rest him this week as well, effectively giving him 2 weeks off to get healthy and hopefully AJ is ready to go after the bye with him to try to get some positive out of the remaining Texans season...

I agree with this statement 100%.What I don't understand is how they handle injured players. Figuring out if they are okay to play. Schaub has obviously been struggling for weeks. Jacoby Jones was ok'd to play against the Titans and was obviously not ok. Ahman is ok'd sometimes to play, even when he isn't right. There was the delay in diagnosis of Jerome Mathis.
I agree with this statement 100%.
Also, a concussion is serious business. Matt looked totally lost on the bench.
I don't know why they still had him out there. They didn't seem to have any medical folks with him either from the shots they showed.
I bet Schaub feels punked by Kubiak. I seem to remember Schaub asking Kubiak about the protection issue in their little golf game while Kubiak was trying to get him signed. I'm sure Schaub really regrets trusting him now. Oh by the way, just think of how terrible we would look if we still had Carr - that vision should make us all feel a little better.
That is true. As far as being passer goes, Carr wouldn't make a pimple on the ass of Matt Schaub. However, for all of his faults, Carr kept getting up. There was fight inside that kid. That's why he at least has my respect (those ridiculous gloves aside).
Carr had a much stronger arm than Schaub, and could make certain throws
that Schaub could only dream about. But its true, Schaub is a more accurate passer, for now. But if he keeps getting hit like he has (in less than half of one season), and he may curse the day he dicided to accept Kubiaks offer to come here.
We really need to invest in an offensive line.

I agree with all the comments about the Texans not standing up for their QB. These guys seem too freaking nice (or maybe they just don't think very highly of Matt).
Separately from the obvious need to upgrade talent, the Texans need to get meaner. Basically, find some goons that can play. Like Kyle Turley in his going-ballistic heyday. Turley's infamous meltdown in New Orleans came when a Jet defender was trying to peel his QB's head off. That guy will stand for his guys.
In contrast, our guys use the classic nice-guy avoidance techniques: either (1) claiming to be above such shenanigans [Winston's quote] or (2) talking tough about protecting their own but then professing ignorance about seeing anything [Kalu]. In the meantime, our QB keeps landing in the damned hospital.
As for the question in this thread, I would seriously question Kubes' judgment if he plays Matt against the Raiders. The playoffs are probably beyond us, but let's get ready to win some games after the bye to restore some good feelings going into the offseason.
