    I dont understand your point...was it Schaubs fault that our offense sputtered in the first half?

    As long as I get Joe Montana, Tom Brady, John Elway, Steve Young, Brett Favre, and Peyton Manning first since they actually made plays to win games and Super Bowls. Thanks.

    Wait, so you cherry pick players from the past 30 years and complain that the Texans QB isnt one of them? Oh, and Manning had one of his worst postseason performances that year. Ironic no?

    Great logic...lets rip on Matt since he isnt one of the greatest QBs in the history of the game.

    My point is that this offense has scored 17, 17, and 18 points in three of the last four games and yet Schaub appears to be above being held responsible for that. Schaub's durability has been a question mark and here he's missed a quarter and a half in possibly the most important game of the year. That's all part of the picture. You guys keep calling him clutch and the team keeps losing, it's ridiculous.

    I'm sure you can easily identify your error in reading comprehension, since I've compiled it all for you, and perhaps you can move on to misrepresenting something else I've said. Thanks.

    Great, so now youre blaming him for being injured during a critical game...lets forget the fact that he CAME BACK TO PLAY.

    Tell us, in order, the positions this team needs to upgrade.

    Wait a minute, coming into this season was Matt Schaub's durability a concern? Yes or no? I'm not blaming Schaub for getting injured, I merely pointed out that he was injured and missed time in what was probably the must win game of the year.

    Sure...and hes proven that a cheap hit that injured him was just that...nothing to do with being injury prone.

    No, I said the QB is the most important position on the field and that all of a sudden was spun by the spinsters here to mean that I want Rex Grossman or Trent Dilfer or any scrub QB who ever played on a good team playing for my team because any historical examples in which a team de-emphasized the importance of the QB position and had success means that the QB position isn't the most important position on the field. It's a real lame argument but it's all that wally and some of these guys can use to dispute my assertion on the importance of the QB position.

    I've compiled this for you, seems like you pinned those loses on Schaub. Let me know what else I can misrepresent that you've said. Thanks

    Oh yea, saying "guy is so money" in a sarcastic way after every Texans loss makes us really convinced you don't think Schaub is the problem....

    How does that translate to Matt Schaub is the problem?

    Do you deny that Matt Schaub had clutch, losing performances in those games? Now you just want to invent stuff apparently.

    That's me making fun of the Schaub is clutch fans since you all apparently believe in the whole clutch loser thing. I believe we already discussed the clutch loser phenomenon that you so energetically support.

    The QB position is the most important position on the offensive side of the ball. BUT, attributing total wins and losses on one position is extremely short sighted. As much crap as T-Mac takes he used to have a commercial that said "It takes 5!" Well, in football it takes 11 or 22 depending on if you want to break it down to one side of the ball or include all the starters. And while a QB is a very important part of the offensive equation, if the right guard is no better than a blocking dummy the QB wont have much success at all since its tough to complete passes from your back. If your running game sucks, you wont be winning many play-off games when the other team is keying on your passing game. And you could have a great offense, but if you cant stop the other guys, chances are you wont have much play-off success either.

    So why do you come in here after every loss and be a jackass about Schaub as if the rest of the team played perfect but Schaub choked it away??? And dont try to go back on the quote me crap. That's your attitude and it does not have to be spelled out. But you really just gotta ask yourself one question:


    WTF are you going to do about it??

    I think if you're a 2 year starter and you miss multiple games each year then they're going to call you injury prone no matter how it happens. If Schaub plays another 2 years and doesn't miss time then he'd probably lose that label.
