Good lord. I can't watch the games here, but everytime I check a Texans score there is a new quarterback playing. ugh.
If he can go, he shouldn't be resting. Needs all the reps he can get. I would have at least liked to see him in there for one half.
if this report were true, wouldnt we be killing Kubiak for letting him play, when this game doesn't improve our seeding and ends the season? They said they overloaded him this week at practice, so he's been working hard.
No, TJ needed the drive for confidence and experience. The Texans have reigned in TJ too much the last few weeks, especially with AJ out... With AJ in there this teams offense is far, far, far better.

So there wouldnt be many complaints, if he went out this game with an injury and followed Leinhart and Schaub out the door?? I don't believe that.
