I don't know it might have been tipped prior. Bottom line the Texans made way to many mistakes to win this game. Still happy with this season. I hope they do something with Foster. I know they don't have to but it is the right thing to do.
I thought it was a good play call... try to catch them by surprise. Why get the quick 1st then hail mary the next play when the Ravens can be prepared for it. This way, they went for the hail mary while Ravens weren't ready for it. Just didn't work out.
Great season guys. I CAN'T WAIT until next year.
TJ Yates is not the future for this team.
Yes... then no. Yates proved he was not ready to be a starter. However, he is still better than hot tub boy. TJ showed he could be the QB of the future, and can handle spot starting duty.
I have a profound sense of pride and frustration because I believe the Texans are clearly the best team in the AFC if not for Schaub injury.
Congratulations to the Texans on a great 2011 season. I know this sucks, but for your first-ever trip to the post-season, the Texans showed themselves to be contenders. You have nothing to be embarrassed about. Pissed yes; embarrassed no.
I hope Reed is ok, too.
This. Would any rookie QB have done anything against that awesome Ravens defense? Yates has a future in this league. It's a lot of pressure to expect a rookie QB to take us to the Super Bowl. Damn good season though.
If you told me before the game Foster will out rushed Rice by 72 yards and Texans would out sack the Ravens 5 - 0... I'd ask, so much did we win by?
Texans D minus Kareem was awesome as was OL & Arian Foster. Big step forward you deserve mad props

TJ definitely has a bright future ahead and I hope he's our #2 next season. Our D (except for KJ) was almost stellar today.
I can't wait for next season.
You may be right. I just didn't like the way he fixated on Andre all day long. Are our TEs/WRs not named AJ that pitiful? Or is it that TJ isn't going thru his progressions properly?
At least Capt. Checkdown goes thru his progressions
...right before he checks down
Ravens defense was not awesome today. Yates does have a future, but as of now his decision making on the reads are about what you expect from a rookie 3rd string QB. He had no pressure on him on some of the throws that he missed horribly. We had a chance to win today and most of us are disappointed because of that. Now on to the next phase; 200,000 mock draft posts, 150,000 FA posts, 100,000 trade posts, etc.
I like Lance Zierlein's tweet. I think it's true.

We have no #2 and no #3.People are blaming Yates for fixating on AJ.

Don't be so quick to thrown Yates away. He's already better than Leinert.
We lost to the better playoff tested team today. No shame in that Just disappointing.
My game balls go to:
1. J.J. Watt: dude was a beast all day long
2. Arian Foster: He came to play today and it showed if he only had some help.
3. Duane Brown: Did anyone hear the name "T-Sizzle" today?? Duane shut his famed pass rush down. No sacks. No QB hits. In fact, you could give a ball to the whole O-line. They kept Yates' jersey clean all day. Too bad he didn't have the experience to take advantage of it.
4. Andre Johnson: 8 grabs for 111 yds. Despite being doubled most of the day.

If you can grow your own future at QB, you're in great shape (in the future). I want to see Yates developed. We gave two 2nd round picks to Falcons for Schaub.
Obviously, it paid off....but can Schaub really make it back to prior form??? Why not invest into a rookie QB, which saves us a TON of salary and cap space in 2013.
How can this team commit to Schaub since his last contract year is 2012 and he might not even play a full season? He'd have to go berserk in every game he played, IMO, in order to have a shot at a big long-term contract...when Yates will be cheaper, more mobile, and a year wiser too.
Not hating on Schaub, just being pragmatic. You can't re-sign EVERYONE you want to re-sign. Give me a BPA draft and quality WR in free agency, and Yates can grow into the role.
I bet Kubiak is solidly in the corner of Yates even after today.

Waste. I still can't believe it. What a waste of a performance.
I agree with every one of those game balls. The Texans OL played superb.
If I had to give a Ravens game ball, it would go to Ed Reed.
I hope he's okay. You're reeeeally gonna need him in Foxboro.
that is the
$64,000 question...
If Schaub gets back to 2009/2010 form, I want him under center. Yates can hold the clipboard next year and watch the master.
I don't want to go 8-8 or 7-9 or worse for a couple of years while Yates figures out that he shouldn't stare down receivers or throw into triple coverage.
Do you?
