    Offense: Decent QB, Great RB, Two good WRs, Two good TEs, Good LT and C, Terrible LG, RG, RT

    Defense, Two good DEs, Decent DT, Good ILB, Decent one dimensional OLB, Terrible OLB, Terrible ILB, Two inconsistent but mostly terrible CBs, Good S, Terrible S.


    There are so many holes in this terribly constructed team. Bad offensive line, bad defense outside of the defensive line. Let's stop blaming it all on Schaub.

    Playcalling is killing us ontop of just stupid turnovers and penalities.

    The problem is not personnel. Those two terrible CB's you mention were pro-bowl caliber in recent years. This is a talent team that has quit on its coach. Get him out. Now.

    If you've reached the point that not 'blaming everything' on your guy is your defense, it probably says a lot.

    Rick Smith has made some bone-headed moves in recent years. Ed Reed? Dude is atrocious. Also left us with a trash right side of the OL from the season before. Need to focus some blame on Smith, for sure.

    So Schaub didn't give away the Seattle game or put us in a huge hole against SF. Good to know.

    He most certainly is a MAJOR contributor.

    If you don't read defenses and change crappy play calls at the line of scrimmage, what good are you as a QB?

    hahahaha, hows TJ yates looked so far? I was never a schaub fan, but this teams failure is on the coach and entire team, not just schaub.

    Rosencopter said that Schaub and texans are running the same offense and everyone knows it.

    he isnt the only problem. then i would rather just try to fix qb then spend years drafting around him like weve done for the past 7 years..

    If the texans are going to build through the draft they better start doing a better job in rounds 3 through 5.

    yea so what happens when we put schaub in a traditional drop back offense with complex routes?? i dont think the results will be any different.. coach and qb need to go.. heavy qb draft class, do like wash and draft 2 of em..

    Rick Smith was a Kubiak hire... yes, only with this franchise does the coach hand-pick his GM.

    Smith is nothing but a figure-head... a liason between ownership and the coaching staff. It all starts/ends with Kubes... if he goes, Smith doesn't survive this regime.

    The main problem right now is that there is nobody competent on this staff to take over. Wade is not going to make it.

    Said it before, saying it again. Schaub is not put into a position to be successful, Yates has proved that.. Also proved everyone ignorant for wanting to bench him.. Schaub gives us the best chance to win.
