53 touchdowns to 17 interceptions over the past 3 seasons, including trips to the playoffs each year. he's earned the money. not someone who's going to light it up, but he's smart, doesnt make many mistakes and has the wheels to convert 3rd downs. that's the guy a whole lot of teams are looking for, and the type of quarterback that just won a superbowl. a perfect fit for run first offenses.

I guess the Chiefs looked at the Texans contract with Matt Schaub and said "I've got to get me some of that."
