Schaub and clutch is like oil and water, seriously, he's cost us more games than he's won. Great game by him to bounce back after the pick, the more he plays the more he matures. He has the tools but makes too many mistakes. A win against the titans and running the table the rest of the year will get me off the fence. He throws up good numbers but there's always a number other than zero in the interception category. We'll go as far as he carries us.
C'mon. Our defense giving up 30+ points a game, and the corners giving
10-yard cushions on 3rd and 5 have been FAR more costly for the Texans
than Matt Schaub. Maybe if the defense had been getting off the field on
3rd down, the offense wouldn't have to play "touchdown-or-bust" every
game.
This is the first season, in which the Texans had an offensive line jell and play
well together. This season was a growth season to begin with. New line
coach, new scheme, 3 new starters on the O-line, Adibi, Wilson, Slaton,
Dunta, Reeves, Ferguson, have replaced many of the hambones we had
to start the season. The Texans are by FAR better than they were to start
the season, and that bodes well for next year.
Schaub is a huge part of where the Texans want to go, same as the lot
of players I named earlier. Take yourself off the ledge, and enjoy the
growth of our future championship team. One thing that is consistent
since Kubiak got here. The Texans have NEVER quit on ANY game since
Kubes got here. Most teams with the Texans' record HAVE quit already.
I see constant improvement, and though you hate to spurn your boy Sage,
Matt has the poise to get us a scoring drive when we need it. Just this
year alone, he's won 2 games and tied once on last minute drives. Today,
the TEAM screwed up OVER AND OVER. Yet, they were CALM and CONFIDENT when they needed it most.
Somebody blamed Sage's Monday night interception on an empty backfield.
Matt led the game-winning drive with a 5-wide empty backfield. That
requires a quarterback who can actually READ A DEFENSE. Give the man
his propers. Since the Miami game, which he threw 2 picks on the first
two series, Matt has shown his team how to sack it up and go get a 'W'
in SPITE of screwing up.
Championship team in a couple years. You heard it here first. Peyton
Manning screwed up ROYALLY when he got to the league. Jim Mora, Sr.
has famous Youtube clips of him dissing Peyton (Playoffs!??)
Growth. Focus on the growth of this team, and enjoy the ride.
