Hey I am bored and I noticed a few quotes that could be taken as subliminal shots at YKW...
Andre Johnson
Steve McKinny
Ephraim Saalam
Wow, it seems like when YKW was around, one sack would lead to the whole team breaking down because guys would start to panic...I wonder why guys are not like that now...
I say this because some guys were led to believe that NO MATTER who you have behind a bad Oline, it makes no difference. I have even been hearing "You can put Peyton Manning behind that line and find the same results." No...that is why Peyton Manning is Peyton Manning and that is why David Carr is Carr.
Also funny how Andre said "If Matt was in a panic we'd have to try to calm him down, and you don't want to be in that situation." heh almost as if he's been in that situation.
Now...ESPN's first Take is going to have Schaub on sometimes today...a Texan actually on a ESPN show...things are a changing even if its just one game.
Andre Johnson
(on QB Matt Schaub’s attitude) “When you have a quarterback like that it helps the team out. If Matt was in the huddle panicking we would have to try to calm him down, and you don’t want to be in that situation.”
(on the huddle and the attitudes of the guys) “The guys attitudes are different, we are just like lets forget about what happened in the last play and move on to the next play, because you can’t control what happens in the past you can only control what is happening in front of you. We just take it one play at a time.”
Steve McKinny
(on the confidence the offensive line has because of QB Matt Scahub) “He did a great job. Same thing we’ve seen from him all preseason. He does a nice job of getting rid of the ball. He’s very calm in the huddle. Never saw him panicking throughout the day. Just a very positive attitude whatever happened, good or bad, just, ‘Hey, next play, let’s move on, let’s get this next play.’”
Ephraim Saalam
(on Texans QB Matt Schaub’s performance) “First off, I want to say not only that, but the difference everybody made. It was a completely different mentality. Last year when I got here, when we had early mistakes in the game, the roof caved in. Everybody started looking around, like ‘here we go again.’ I didn’t see any of that today. I’m proud to be a part of a team that can change directions and turn the corner so fast. It’s only been a year. It’s been a year, and Matt Schaub has come in here as a leader. He controlled the huddle, better than it’s been here in the past and my hat goes off to him. He stayed in there. He had some early shots; he took them, he got back up, never wavered, and that’s what you look for in a leader on offense.”
