what you get for setting the expectations so high and not getting it done. this goes with the fans also. you expecting the team to win every game?
Houston certainly has its fair share of idiot fans. This BBS at times can be a good representation of it.

I dont think they were cheering that Shaub was injured per-say... They are probably cheering that a change is FINALLY coming. Unfortunately, our QB had to get hurt in order for it to happen. Granted, there are idiots out there who probably wanted him to get hurt.
The players need to spend less time thinking about what the fans are doing and more time thinking about how much they themselves are sucking.
the players are wrong . it was a foot injury not a neck/head injury. it wasn't anything permanent. JJ Watt 'hes got a wife and kid'. So ****ing what? their dad/husband is still healthy and rich.
Nice way to take the heat off the team, deflect attention to the drunken obnoxious fans. Congratulations Bob McNair, your ineptitude has now driven a rift between your star players and your customers. Good job, good effort.
Yes while I do agree that Texans fans were cheering just because they had to see something change...and not necessarily that Schaub got hurt. The truth is that there are many on this board that clamored for the same thing. Regardless of what we think of a player...booing/cheering for any player being getting hurt is just wrong on so many levels...
Isn't this like the 3rd week in a row they've called out Houston fans? <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Andre Johnson on fans cheering Schaub's injury: "No class.

No, you're wrong. That is a human beings health. Big or small, cheering things like that is unacceptable. Fans my ass.
Seriously, Texans fans are some of the most idiotic in the league. Not just from what happened today but when the offense is in the game STFU! I remember last year just how often the fans would boo because they didn't score or because they were down a touchdown in the 1st quarter.
Since I don't see Kubiak ever benching Schaub, I am happy Schaub got injured. I wasn't rooting for a head or neck injury or anything career ending, but something that would give our back ups a chance. Schaub's life is no different then if he had gotten benched.
I knew this would happen eventually. Fans have set their expectations too high for the past couple of seasons. This season is going to get ugly.
