    How much upside does Schaub have? He has a very average arm and he's not mobile.

    He's very smart and understands the game, but those things keep his upside limited.

    If you think Brady has an average arm you are crazy.

    And he is more mobile than Schaub.

    What? He's said so himself... He made a joke about it earlier this season. But whatever proves your point, guy.

    Well then Schaub must have below average arm strength.

    If Sage wins out it should be his job to lose at the start of training camp.

    Honestly . .this little nugget is getting tiresome
    because
    Coaches saw alot of David Carr and thought he WAS A FRANCHISE QB
    Alot of folx here said otherwise . . for a long time before the coaches caught on

    I've been saying Sage + 2 2nd rouders >> Schaub

    Put those 2 2nd rounders on the O-Line
    and I think we looking alot better right about now
    Hell
    IMO
    Sage > Schaub anyway

    Rocket River
    Sage has never gotten NEAR the shot Schaub or Carr has

    By "Schaub isn't mobile," do you mean he can't scramble like Elway? Because I think he was moving around in the pocket pretty well (though a: I'm not an expert and b: perhaps anything looks good in a pocket when I'm used to watching DC in the pocket).

    I think he's just really slow, compared to even Carr. Obviously, he's smarter than Carr in the pocket, but I don't think he's going to hardly ever pick up first downs with his legs. Whereas someone like even Carr could do it on occasion.

    I say say so. I don't report lies:

    Texans QB Matt Schaub is getting a second opinion on his dislocated left shoulder. "I'm going to get a second opinion and see how things go," he said Monday. "The range of motion's getting there. I'm starting to work on the strength. It's a work in progress, but it's getting better." Schaub is hoping to return this season, but the odds are against him. -- Houston Chronicle
