i thought the cb hit it down

He did.

 

[False Start]

Well, here we go.... pick 6 on 3. BREAK!

As terrible as the season has been seeing Schaub back as QB is the lowest point. I can't stand the sight of this HC.

 

[Wolf]

Best special teams play with that roll lol

 

[bckey]

But putting Schaub back in was dumb.

Beyond dumb. It shows his unhealthy affection for the guy. He can't be trusted to make unbiased decisions anymore.

 

[ziggy29]

Raiders still not blitzing. That could cost them the game.

 

[Honoring Earl 34]

Yes they were. But Kubiak is trying to save his job and it's not going to happen if we go 3 & out the entire 2nd half. He's making a move that he thinks will benefit the team.

Do I agree? Not necessarily, but I understand his thought process. We've watched Case not get it done in the 2nd half for 4 weeks. Whether that's his fault or not is up for debate, but I can't blame Kubiak for making a switch.

What I can blame him for is making a switch at QB but continually leaving Newton, McCain, Sharpton, Harris, Bullock, etc out on the field.

Matt will win it for somebody ... No doubt .

"Here comes Schaub to save the day"

 

[TheEastwood]

Why are the Raiders playing a soft prevent zone?

 

[mussop]

Much to your chagrin, it isn't.

Scoreboard

 

[PapaL]

Schaub's gonna mess around and win this game. Watch. The clown car would explode around here.

 

[texan279]

The infamous Schaub underthrow.......................... :vincepalm:

 

[DexmanC]

Markett King is the best young punter since Reggie Roby.

 

[chicagotexan2]

I love how Schaub hits the WRS in stride leading to huge yac.

 

[ziggy29]

COuld be worse. We could still have Ed Reed -- ask the Jets....

 

[TheMatrix31]

Andre was wide open.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

Put in Keenum as the wildcat Qb.

Lol I think it might be worth it for the explosions that would occur here

Beyond dumb. It shows his unhealthy affection for the guy. He can't be trusted to make unbiased decisions anymore.

Everyone wants Case to play out the year to see if he's the future. Kubiak cannot afford to do that. He's coaching for his job and needs to win every game he can.

Schaub is obviously moving the ball more effectively....

 

[ziggy29]

Now THAT is what happens to this team when you blitz -- I don't care who is QB.

 

[thetexanator]

holy. schaub scared. i guess thats better than case.

 

[buffalo2269]

[Rey]

The announcers are clowns. That was obviously supposed to be a screen.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

wow. Break for the texans

 

[chicagotexan2]

I surprised the fainting goat didn't get sacked

 

[TexansFight]

As terrible as the season has been seeing Schaub back as QB is the lowest point. I can't stand the sight of this HC.

I had tickets to this game. I am ecstatic that I am at a NTB waiting room waiting to get my flat fixed rather than at Reliant. That's how bad I hate Kubiak and Schaub. McNair needs to fire Kubiak after this game to show the fans he even gives a damn about winning. I have never been as disgusted at the Texans and I was furious at them for passing on VY. This **** pisses me off even more.

Yep. This isn't Madden.

 

[TheEastwood]

See that's what happens when you run a draw when it isn't 3rd and 20...

 

[Lucky]

Raiders still not blitzing. That could cost them the game.

Yes the Texans are only 3 field goals behind. Of course they will need at least 5 attempts to make that happen.

 

[buffalo2269]

Setting up for a field goal

 

[MEGA SWATT]

we looked poised to hang 3 on these guys.

 

[EllisUnit]

I'm not even into this game anymore.........

 

[Ghostform]

Looks like Schaub will be starting next week... looks like im gonna have to adjust my alarm clock too

 

[TexansFight]

Love check down Schaubie. I hate him

 

[silvrhand]

back to the 4 yard pass..

 

[texan279]

We only need three field goals lol

 

[ziggy29]

That's the Schaub I remember -- throwing 3 yards downfield with 13 to go. But at least it wasn't on 3rd down.

 

[RagingBull]

Well, I'm off to the Broncos game. Not sure if I want to keep following this dumpster fire of a team. It is entertaining in a train wreck sort of way though.

 

[EllisUnit]

Atleast we know Schaub can still check it down, whew i was tired of all the long pass plays anyways....

 

[TexansFight]

Nice pass *******.

 

[buffalo2269]

Field goal

 

[thetexanator]

do we have enough time for 2 more fgs?

 

[ziggy29]

We only need three field goals lol

Two. (sigh)

 

[htownfan32]

Make Keenum the red zone QB?
Schaub the 20 to 20 QB?

 

[OzzO]

2 more FG's to go....

 

[TheEastwood]

Can we have Schaub between the 20s and Keenum in the redzone?

 

[buffalo2269]

That's the Schaub I remember -- throwing 3 yards downfield with 13 to go. But at least it wasn't on 3rd down.

No joke need 13 yards hits a three yard dumpoff

 

[ziggy29]

This team is a dumpster fire in the red zone.

 

[MEGA SWATT]

We only need three field goals lol

2 now!

 

[A time to chill]

Kubiak needs to put Case back in. I think Case can score at least one more TD.
