Quote:They had lost confidence in Schaub.  Keenum was the option they wanted to explore.  They did so, and subsequently went back to Schaub.  How many games did they win with him?  You claim he was the better option, so how many games did he win for Houston last year after he returned from purgatory?  And why exactly was he benched if he was the best option? 

 

They stuck with Keenum far too long given what he was giving. Hell, they stuck with Keenum last year longer than we stuck with Gabbert last year, and that was a new regime that wanted to see what Gabbert had. IMO, McNair knew exactly what he was doing - trying to ensure that first pick. Schaub had a rough patch of pick 6's, but overall was still the better option. Clearly. That proved itself in the 2nd half of the Texans Jags game. From that point forward, Schaub should have been playing if winning was truly what they were trying to do at that point.
