Matt Schaub out for season; Leinart named starter

[BigBucs]

I figured BigBucs would be too traumatized to step foot in a Texans thread.

How short lived was that glory? We may be jostling for position on 9-7, 8-8 draft order spots after yesterdays game. As that old saying goes... You may have won the battle......

[Houston]

Ouch.

[GoChargers]

Texans are still good enough to win the division but Schaub would need to be back for the playoffs.

[BigBucs]

If Andre Johnson could make Ken Dorsey look good he can make Matt Leinart look good too.

Uhh.... didnt Leinart have Fitzgerald AND Aquan Boldin to toss it too in Arizona?

[1ke]

Didn't Kubiak get somegood out of Rex Grossman? Well see what kind of magic he really has.

[NAHSTE]

As a fan of football i hate to see good players on good teams get injured.

Me too, but I thought this thread was about Matt Schaub.

Fitz is making John Skelton look good. Of course who hasn't looked good vs the Eagles....oh that's right Romo

Skelton is an AP QB. he beat the Saints last season

He just played in one game in one season with the Texans, and completed three of nine passes. Though he did study the offense well with the Texans, and that is why Kyle Shanahan brought him to the Redskins with him.

That was Max Hall.

[BigBucs]

Only you could take a whole paragraph of reasons and boil it down to one sentence..

Don't you believe a QB can develop over time? And I don't think Matt Schaub was the one holding the Bucs to 263 total yards yesterday.

I believe Leinart is a bum no matter what.

That was Max Hall.

:noidea:

[Houston]

For the remainder of the season Leinart will do better then Josh Freeman. Not that it's saying much, but still...

[Aso]

Leinart fits more into a west coast offense. He played pretty damn well as a rookie under Dennis Green but played like shit under any season under Ken Whisenhunt. The Texans have enough tools around Leinart to succeed. The best running attack in the league paired with plenty of weapons as far as receivers go. There is no excuse for him not to play well. I'll be rooting for him.

[Aso]

Leinart gets a bye and then plays a Jags defense which has Derek Cox and Drew Coleman as the starters at CB, not to mention Johnson will be back in by then. So its also not like he's starting off his tenure as starting QB against fierce competition and he gets to be eased in.

Matt Schaub isnt a good player? VSN loves to hate on over-hyped players.
