All Encompassing Matt Schaub Thread

The moderators or whoever took this off & added it to the all-encompassing choke-artist schaub thread last week. How long will it take this week?
 
We need somebody to spark our offense. I don't care who it is. Our defense isn't going to play well feeling like they have to pitch a shut out every game. Already down 14-0 in this one. I want to see somebody show some signs of life offensively.
 
It's time to make a quarterback change guys. I've been Schaub's biggest fan and I'm done watching the same rookie mistakes. He's making bad reads and weak throws even when he has good pass protection.

You were right last week. I tried to find it in my heart to give Matt Schaub one more game but watching this mess has me convinced he will never lead us to the Super Bowl. About to be 21-0 49ers thanks to his two INTs.
 
Nobody to blame but Schaub. Our offensive line is playing one hell of a game giving him plenty of time. Foster has has some wide-open holes but didn't break them. Our defense is now falling apart but kind of hard to play motivated when you know the offense isn't going to do jack with a quarterback who's a threat to throw a pick six at any time.

Schaub should have two pick six's in this game. That second one was bobbled by the cornerback but he still came down with it. He was thinking score too soon or else it would have been a pick six.

And for the life of me. Keshawn Martin is pathetic returning kicks. We let Trindon Holliday go for a guy who gets what, 5 or 6 yards a return? He did break one decent run earlier but that may have been the biggest of his pro career.
 
Schaub is such a joke. Kubiak is showing why he is also a joke of he keeps this loser in the game. I have always supported what kubiak is doing here but his refusal to change QBs will be his undoing.

This fan base is starting to not only turn on schaub but also on kubiak for schaub related issues. If kubes is not willing to change then he needs to go as well. Funny thing is he will be hired somewhere very quickly as a HC and probably be successful.

They both suck. Our team sucks. I'm pissed off and am getting close to calling it a season.
 
We are getting a good team effort from our offensive line, running backs, receivers and tight ends. I see everybody doing their job on offense. Schaub's mistakes being the dfference. We should be leading 14-7 right now with the ball and not down 21-0.

Probably. I have no more confidence he can lead this team any further than a divisional round appearance. Is our franchise high going to be wild-card wins? That's assuming we can even make the playoffs this year. I'm not so sure we can with Schaub playing like he is.
 
Why do we put anyone other than Daniels and Andre out into the pattern? You know Schaub is never going to target them. He is staring down Andre. And if I can see it from my couch I'm pretty sure the 49ers see it too.
 
At this point, I'll be happy with that final wild card spot in the AFC and the 6th seed. Playing a road game in the wild card round. We can still win that final wild card spot even if we lose this game and drop to 2-3, but that's assuming we make a quarterback change. I'm not even worried about catching the Colts for first place in the AFC South. We're going to be two games back already.

I've seen enough of Schaub. I loved him for his now seven seasons with the Texans but we have too much talent on this team to be under-achieving like this. A better quarterback would change everything.

But would sitting Schaub basically mean throwing in the towel on the season ?

Not at all bro. If we made a change now I would actually like our chances to win a wild card spot. If we don't make a change we may not even make the playoffs. Either way, how could it be any worse? Do you want another pick six week after week?
 
Far be it for me, of all people, to put a damper on the Schaub bashing, but consider this one decision:

Keenum is not even active today. Not even as a just in case kind of thing. Schaub didn't make that decision.

Schaub has been a good quarterback for a long time but his career is over. He should just retire instead of milking out another two, three or four more years in the NFL. He's just robbing the franchise at this point.

He's not as great as he used to be, doesn't make smart decisions anymore, his throwing arm looks a lot weaker after his foot injury, and his lack of mobility is frustrating to watch. It's time to make a change. This team needs somebody they can rally behind and believe in. A real captain and leader at the quarterback position. Matt Schaub is no longer that guy because of his age and physical limitations.

It's in his head now ... much like "he who won't be mentioned" This season will be for draft picks, real quick.
 
I want to go back in time a few off-seasons ago when Peyton Manning had serious interest in playing for the Texans. Slap some sense into Bob McNair.

Yeah, he was coming off a serious neck injury but Schaub was coming off a serious foot injury. Both of them were unknowns at the time health wise, but don't you go with the future Hall of Famer and Super Bowl champion?

The Denver Broncos are the toast and talk of the NFL world 24-7 right now, and that could have been the Houston Texans receiving all of that glory and being in the spotlight.
 
I'm not sure either of the guys on the bench are the answer, but I know the starter is not. I have no idea how he went from a competent to good QB with some questionable issues in the biggest games to a guy that makes me long for the good old days of David Carr, but it's happened.

At this point, we need a change for change sake. As I said, not sure if TJ can actually do anything but we need to see. When the patient is on the table and declared dead, what can it hurt to put the paddles on and shock the patient. Worst case, he's still dead. But maybe the jolt to the patient is just what is needed to bring him back from the dead.

What do we have to lose?

Mark my words. This Sunday will begin the rebirth of Matt Schaub. He's going to change the perception of him. They'll be calling him elite before the play offs start.

No lie.


Okay, maybe I don't believe this fully, but I'm working on it. I'll be 90% in by game time (thank God for a late start)

So how's that working TK?
 
Here is why I don't like Kubiak. He is quoted by halftime reporter as saying he has bigger worries like his defense, special teams, etc despite Schaub putting them in the predicament. Ridiculous.
 
What a joke. Kubiak is sticking with Schaub in the second half and told Michelle at halftime that he has bigger concerns to worry about like the defense and offensive line. Umm, might want to fix the big problem first before the rest of the team is fired up to play like champions.

Offensive line has actually played good tonight with the exception of a few plays. It's getting to the point now where I almost want to see Schaub throw a third or fourth interception tonight. When will Kubiak make a change?

Our defense just forced a punt to start the second half. But yeah, I think it's a real problem moving forward. Kubiak is hiding the real problem and failing to fix it.

Exactly right. Our offensive line and defense are playing like warriors tonight. I see total effort out of them. It's Schaub that is the problem. Take away his two interceptions, including the pick six, and we are either tied or only down one score right now. Not 21-0. Look at that, Schaub has all day to throw and just hit Hopkins for an easy pass down field. Any pro quarterback makes that play. Even Tim Tebow would look good in our offense, but sadly, Schaub has not.

I heard her say that and it made me mad. Kubiak just doesn't get it.
 
Matt is just not accurate any longer on longer throws. I think that is why he is always dumping off. Kubiak is the problem

i concur 100% :bravo:
 
Andre should have had that Touchdown grab. Everything is going wrong for Schaub. He threw a decent pass there. Not his fault, but bottom line is the offensive line is playing a great game. He has all day to throw.

We have all the pieces of a Super Bowl winning team. The Houston Texans, talent wise, are every bit as good as say the 5-0 Denver Broncos. The main problem is quarterback play. It's just frustrating to watch because this team is talented and fun to watch otherwise.

There's more to it than that though I agree that QB play is a huge part of it.

I think one of the biggest problems is that our offensive system is something of a dinosaur. We've all heard it said that the Texans work hard to score and it's true. We grind our way down the field praying that nothing goes wrong along the way. Running backs slip through narrow creases, receivers usually catch the ball with a defender right alongside them and too often in bizarre locations. They scoop it up off the ground or go up high and get drilled. Our QB seems to constantly be under pressure and when it isn't there he still acts like it is. This is our system as much as it is our personnel.

That's what I think. I'm probably wrong but it feels like everyone in the NFL knows exactly what we're about to do and how to stop it. Easy touchdowns aren't a feature of this offense and we don't see them very often.

Oh, I think he gets it but he's got that 'fall on the sword fetish' thing going.

Is it time to panic yet? Will we be drafting higher than expected and possibly be in the mix for a franchise QB?

Don't wake me up, I'm liking this dream...
