Oh no, Scub looks hurt, we should put anybody else out there.
That's what I'm saying. We should expect this... why be mad when they do what we know they gone do?

What's BS is the Texans offense that totally disappeared the 2nd half and now OT.
Terrible call.

BUENO!
Matt Schaub is broken. He's the single worst problem on this team because what's wrong with him affects every other part of it. The team is broken because it's QB has been revealed to be a system robot who can't deal with the game when someone colors outside the lines.

Russell damn Wilson.
That's some defense.
Tire out the QB before he gets that first down.

The worst thing that could have happened to Schaub is, the team as a whole got better. So now there's no excuses for him.

For a minute, on that last run, I almost mistook Wilson for Schaub! (Sarcasm)

**** you, Kareem.
I think I've figured out what it is about Schaub that polarizes fans so much. When he has time and can settle in the pocket, he's incredibly accurate, one of the very best in the NFL. So when the O-line is giving good protection, and sometimes in two-minute drills with a 3-man rush, Schaub can look like the best in the game.
BUT... on the other hand, he is one of the worst QBs in the NFL when he is under pressure. His decision-making is questionable. And when facing pressure, there are several things you can do, and most NFL QBs can do one of these three things reasonably well:
(1) "Feel" the pressure, step up or to the side, and buy another 2-3 seconds or more (Peyton Manning is ridiculous at this);
(2) Be able to throw accurately on the run (Ben Roethlisberger);
(3) Beat you by tucking the ball away and using their legs (Wilson and several others).
Most QBs are decent at at least one of these. Schaub is fairly awful at all three. So when he's under a lot of pressure, a sack or an incomplete pass is the best you can reasonably hope for. Add to that a large dose of questionable decision-making under pressure, and well.... the secret to beating the Texans is getting a pass rush that keeps Schaub under almost constant pressure. Period. The game plan is almost that simple.
[EDIT: That all said, Kubiak sets him up to fail with his "play not to lose" strategy whenever he takes a big lead into halftime.]
