    Matt Schuab is indeed underrated, among the top group of QB's in the league

    Eh, who on earth under rates Matt Schaub?

    He was the leader in passing yards last year. I don't think anybody ever denied he was one of the elite QBs.

    Then you still have time to pick a different team!

    I learned that last week. I got to say I would have picked 6 or 7 other QB's ahead of him if you has asked me that.
    I think it's more the general public don't really know him and you never hear much about him.

    Definitely over after that fumble

    was getting excited with that drive too :(

    He is underrated. He's one of the top QB's in the league, yet his name is never up their with, say, Rivers or Rodgers.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Going to overtime in Washington. Hell of a game going on.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,287 ✭✭✭davyjose


    Pats started so well, and were just owned by the Jets TBH. Very surprising.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,608 ✭✭✭themont85


    Schaub hasn't made the playoffs yet, thats why is isnt considered elite. He's been injured in the past and hasn't had much of a running game to be fair but he still hasn't made it and he himself has had shocking second halfs in crucial games. Another mark against him has been his inconsistancy away from home and in the wind. His stats are impressive though, hopefully they get into the playoffs this year, Andre Johnson is too sick an athlete to not have gotten national recognition yet.

    He's really not. He's a fantastic QB, and everybody recognises that. Anybody who doesn't, well, they obviously don't know a thing about football. With the same weapons and O'line available to them, I'd take him before Rivers any day of the week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    i have been saying the Texans are up and coming for a while now, at least 3 seasons id say and this might be the year that they finally win me my bet!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,658 ✭✭✭✭Peyton Manning


    Why didn't Pats use their timeouts and at least try get a TD, and maybe an onside kick?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 25,953 ✭✭✭✭kryogen


    Hate The Jets

    Great result for ye though


  • Registered Users Posts: 148 ✭✭Pegasusbridge


    Cromartie really upped his game 2nd half. Great performance by the jets after a shaky start. I hope the offence can maintain that level next week.

    i thought the same

    cant see why they didnt fight till the end


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    Wow, surprising punt by the Texans.

    I think you only have to put your ear to the ground to see that Schaub doesn't seem to get the same level of attention as other QB. Simple as.

    Now, C'mon Washington!!!

    Great win for the Jets. Onwards and upwards.

    Wonder did the Pats videotape it?!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,500 ✭✭✭ReacherCreature


    Ugh, not happy with that loss. Our defense is so rubbish. I knew it'd be bad coming into the season but it's just poor. Offense was very flat too. Rough day. Bills next week to bounce back from.

    Exactly my thought but wondering if he's just taking the mick. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,986 ✭✭✭✭mikemac


    Hate this timeout nonsense to "ice" the kicker

    But it worked!


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,500 ✭✭✭ReacherCreature


    52 yard attempt no good for the 'Skins.

    Wasn't McNabb playing last time the NFL had a tied game?

    As for the Videotape comment: stupid alright, but no worse than all the anti-Favre posts tbh.
