PFT: Keenum could leapfrog Yates (maybe eventually Schaub)

a lot of you are overvaluing our backups. Despite how much some of you can't stand Schaub, if he goes down the season is over. Yates (lol@fans who think he's the best QB on this team) is no savior. We've seen the best of him. keenum's showing has been impressive. maybe even good enough to overtake yates. unless yates gets injured though we won't see keenum.

 

You know your team is solid when the biggest debate going into the season is about two guys who you hope don't ever see the field.

 

Reading the quotes from some of the veterans it seems like they feel Case is not only better than Yates but should be the starter.

The 49ers were in the super bowl because they had the balls to switch qbs.

 

can you give the quotes?

 

not sure they exist.

 

"Hey I think Case looks awesome, hell I think he should start." Jeff Alm

 

Currently watching a QB with arm strength and mobility playing for the Giants... his initial are DC.

(sarcasm)

 

superbowl champion brah

 

FWIW, they just threw the Texans under the bus by saying it was the lack of a decent O-line that ruined his career... while the lack of an O-line was part of it, he also didn't put forth the work ethic needed to be a starter in this league. (or he was too rattled from all the hits...)

 

He held on to the ball way too long.

 

I am not going to go searching for quotes but a few are in this article

There was that. I've also heard from a couple of sources that the offensive line felt Carr threw them under the bus and showed their appreciation by allowing a few defenders have nice shots at him.

 

Yeah I heard those things too. Was posted at texanstalk a while back.

 

I think you're going just a wee bit overboard. There's not a single quote in there that makes me think the players want Case to be the starter.

 

They can't come out and say it and I agree he starts as the backup but we need to win now and that means having a quick trigger if someone is not getting the job done

 

The idea that Schaub doesn't get the job done is so laughable.

I really hope he pulls a Flacco and wins a superbowl. Not only because I root for the team, but because I want the people who think we should just dump any QB that doesn't perform like Brady to eat their crow.

This time last year this board would have voted almost unanimously (with a few notable exceptions) that they wouldn't trade Schaub for Flacco. Today this board would vote almost unanimously in the opposite direction and would also likely vote that Schaub can't win a superbowl.

 

I hope that happens as well. Just know my eyeballs don't lie and Schaub seems very limited

 

If the Texans win the Superbowl . . . I don't give a ***** if Kubiak put the pads on and took them . . . .

Just curious, how many more chances do you think Schaub should get?

 

2 more years...based on his contract. Sit back and relax.
