way to capitalize schaub

[shafnutz05]

Wow, what an absolutely terrible throw from Matt Schaub. Johnson was 10 feet from the closest defender

[pittsports87]

Texans have no chance.

[MRandall25]

I love the fact I picked Shayne Graham as my kicker in the playoff pool.

Texans' O is awful.

[shafnutz05]

Texans D is playing well, but they cannot afford to be punting so many times. Schaub looks really bad so far.

[Staggy]

Gronk re-injured his arm. ****

[Rocco]

And on another side note, I can't believe the Patriots have not won a Super Bowl since 2004. And I can't believe the Steelers have won two SBs since the Pats won their last one.

Bledsoe is still a pretty vivid memory for me, I think Brady is the first player that I can actually track his one-team career from start to finish. Obviously Hines too, but I had my mind on other things in HS

Not being able to cheat anymore has hurt their playoff performance.

[shafnutz05]

Woof...Schaub sucks

[Grunthy]

Nice missed pass interference by the referee there.

[MRandall25]

Welker is killing my fantasy stats with these drops.

[MRandall25]

Who is this Vereen guy?

[shafnutz05]

The Texans defense, for playing in Foxboro, is lights out right now. I'd be pissed if I was on that squad if Schaub craps the bed again

[bhaw]

Schaub... you will continue to go 0fer on 3rd down conversions when you throw the 3 yard in pattern and need 10.

[bhaw]

The Houston punter isn't helping matters.

[shafnutz05]

Schaub... you will continue to go 0fer on 3rd down conversions when you throw the 3 yard in pattern and need 10.

It wasn't just that. On 2nd and 10, Schaub had a pretty nice pocket and plenty of pass protection. Instead of checking his receivers, he panics and throws a ball to the right side, to a guy that has two Patriots blanketing him in coverage. Naturally, he is immediately tackled for a loss of two. Just horrible field awareness.

[shafnutz05]

I know I said this last game, but I am fairly confident that this game is over

[ulf]

If the Texans had a solid #2 receiver, they'd be a great team. I think half of Schaub's problems are locking onto Johnson, because there's him, and a check down to Owen Daniels. Not much else for defenses to worry about, if they can double Johnson and keep tabs on Foster out of the backfield.

[Grunthy]

I don't think anyone will disagree here.

[shafnutz05]

I think JJ Watt is a great player, but his little finger-wag routine just came off as horribly timed. When you are playing a QB with three SB rings in his back pocket, you don't go out of your way to piss him off

[bhaw]

At least Houston is making it a game.

[PghSkins]

Houston is hanging around. No illusion that they can pull it off but I can dream.

[pittsports87]

And just when the Texans think they have the momentum, the Patriots take it all back.

[shafnutz05]

Texans just got a gift call

[Sam's Drunk Dog]

The Texans remind me of the Steelers before Roethlisberger. Great running back and defense but average QB.

[Staggy]

What a horrible call
