    How many completions did Case wind up with yesterday of 25+ yards?

    How many has Schaub had the entire yr?

    Next game is on a Sunday Night...America will get to hear Matt Schaub booed during the player intros (it's the offensive players turn in the rotation) and booed on every incomplete pass and fetal position sack.

    Exactly what I figured he'd do. This old school line of thinking is going to get his a** kicked to the curb. In Kubiak's mind, Schaub didn't start only because he was injured. Therefore, he cannot lose his job due to injury.

    If he didn't get his ass kicked to the curb before, what makes you think it will now? If anything, McNair just came out and said Kubiak did a great job and that he has faith in him.

    Not to make light of the situation but if Kubiak trots Schaub out there in two weeks at Reliant, especially after the game Keenum had, I would fear for both Kubiak and Schaub's safety during the game. Keenum played well enough to get the start after the bye. Keenum is the main reason a lot of the fan base cares about the team at this point. This ineptitude by the Texans organization is creating a volatile situation.

    I don't know who will start; won't be surprised either way but....

    They don't play for another two weeks. Rest easy for now.

    If Schaub starts, I think the "We want Keenum" chants could come before the game even starts. And they should.

    The same thing was said in San Francisco via Harbaugh. He continued to tell the media that Smith was the starter even week after week as Kaepernick was playing. I think he finally dropped the whole schtick when the playoffs rolled around.

    That's a very vague quote and he's being very technical with it.

    This. Kubiak is being respectful to Schaub. I'm not watching if Schaub is playing.

    ya it's hard to imagine that this isn't just pr speak - even from kubes. he's just trying to show his guy some love. this is alex smith/kaepernick all over again.

    I really want to believe that this is just a ploy by Kubiak to force the Colts to have to gameplan for both QB's and not be able to focus on one.

    But since it's Kubiak, it's probably not the case.

    But if for some reason Schaub did start and we lost... Kubiak better not be coaching the next week.

    Not much to gameplan...Colts secondary would eat Schaub alive...

    If he does play Kubiak will be just going down with the ship. Fine with me. Case may stick around with another coach (but coaches like their own guys) but I think if that is his only game this year he'd get a job elsewhere...probably as Brady's replacement in NE...wouldn't that be funny/sad?

    pretty much this. I've watched every game but I can't take it anymore. If Schaub starts I will NOT watch this game. I have too much pride to watch the Texans get stomped and embarrassed on national TV for the 1000th time.

    Yeah but harbaugh has cajones. I couldn picture him settling for all the field goals we did last night.
    He's intense and it reflects on his team.

    If Scrub starts next game I will not watch any more till Kub and Scrub gone for good. Next game if scrub starts which is just about a lock the stadium should be 60% to 75% empty and fans should be rioting
