Poor Watt no wonder he was a non factor all game long. They threw like 800 pounds on him all game long. Really sad we didn't play with any heart.

If Keenum does not play, I have no doubt Kube is gone. If he plays Keenum, it will save him the job for at least this year because that is what most of the fans want. I'm not surprise if we beat the Chiefs, they've been playing teams that they supposed to beat almost like the Texans last year.
Ironic that his job would depend on a guy that no other team wanted... and the Texans signing him is the by-product of Kubiak's "arrogance" in his ability to develop QB's.

Sounds promising, this team could use a spark of enthusiasm. Schaub is a likeable guy but appears to have such a depressing defeatist mentality. Yates seems robotic
Yep, they were doing everything in their power to deflect any praise of Case back onto T.J. It's obvious the coaching staff wants to prove a point about how they do things around here.
This team, the offense in particular, needs an injection of life and I think Keenum can provide that. There is a lot of the Tebow effect (hype) with Keenum, but I think he's a gamer and I think he could be what our offense needs right now. Someone that can make some plays on the fly. Time will tell if he is a long term possibility, but right now I think he is what we need. Or at least need to try.
Thanks for clearing that up. I'm sure no one understood that I was implying Case would be the majority participant at QB in such a scenario.
Heard a clip on 610 of Duane Brown speaking about TJ and Case. He said they both had the arm and the mobility, but there was a difference in demeanor...
I'm sure there was... one of them has never taken a real NFL hit or ever dressed for a regular season game in his life, while the other almost cemented his status as a "career backup" with one half.
