    What if Schaub had more than 1 WR to throw to? He was noticably better with Jacoby here last year.

    The Houston offense had 6 pro-bowlers, including one at every position except TE. At some point, the "if only they had more talent" argument can't work. If having 3 pro-bowl lineman, a probowl RB, a probowl WR, and a really good TE aren't enough, something is wrong.

    Sure, and it's not necessarily the QB. It could be our slow-ass wideouts.

    Well, they had the opportunity to add Brandon Lloyd for a 5th round pick last year. But as Hey Now astutely pointed out, who needs him on a team this loaded with talent?

    Doesn't matter.

    Schaub could have Julio Jones and Roddy White and his arm would force them to run crossing routes all damn day. Oh slants too.


    Sigh

    We still had Jacoby then and our offense was pretty excellent that year.

    Brandon Lloyd never wanted other team other than New England.
    Lloyd started his career with Josh McDaniels as a head coach, then he got traded to the Rams were McDaniels was the head coach in St. Louis, now McDaniels went to the Pats, and Lloyd wanted to be traded there.

    Its almost not even a no huddle...only difference than a regular play is that they dont huddle...but the point of the no huddle is to play with urgency, which we clearly do not abide by.

    i came to this conclusion as well after the IND game. i wanted nothing more than for Schaub to succeed because that means the team succeeds. he just doesn't have the tools. i know he's smart enough and i can live with a weak arm, but his statue-esque mobility is killing drives all by itself.

    and every poster i've argued with about Schaub can pile on so i'll just say this. Schaub at QB is like bad weather. If it's inevitable, just relax and enjoy it. :(You can't do nothing about it. Thank you Clayton Williams. :)

    I think we can safely conclude that Schaub is only good if you have an elite o-line (see 2010). Any weakness in the o-line leads to more pressure on him, and if you routinely pressure Schaub he gets rattled and has no ability to make plays on his own (that weren't drawn up) with the football.

    Combine that with the NFL evolution to mobile QBs to counter the faster than ever defenses, and it's a pretty grim outlook on our QB situation. Only way we'll win with Schaub is if the defense is elite and the o-line is stacked.
