    Edit: yeah I see what you mean. I just think Houston need to find someone who can put the team on his shoulders when it counts. They wont win a Super Bowl otherwise

    There would be plenty of takers if any of the 3 above we're on the market. Elite or not they are a damn sight better than a lot of the guys starting elsewhere.

    In fairness he didn't say anything about Romo or Flacco (at least in this thread, may have criticised them earlier in the year).

    Personally I think schaub is good enough to lead them to the Super Bowl. He is not a flacco or romo. He is much more consistent imo,

    Ahem, Flacco has won playoff games every year he has been in the league

    And was a dropped ball away from the Superbowl

    Inconsistent?

    Well, he is inconsistent. He was very lucky to win some of those playoff games. Plenty of poor games this year too.

    The guy who hasn't thrown a TD in four games, and one in the last five? And all in the same timespan as 4 INTs?

    Edit: 4 Ints.

    Flacco has played some good games in play-offs but he also plays Terri-bad at times.
    Look at schaub career and he has been very generally consistent. Yeah, he's had a few bad games but overall a good qb who could be great. I doubt flacco or romo ever will.

    (I didn''t mean to turn this to an anti-flacco thing though)

    I think the Vikings vs Packers game is going to be fascinating.

    I saw the Lions at Vikings game last season and Joe Webb had the Lions defence in absolute fits with the way he ran with the ball. He's incredibly quick and elusive. If the Packers stack the box to deal with Peterson it'll give Webb lots of space. Play action could be extremely successful and I think a couple of wildcat plays could prove to be very successful.

    Packers best defensive package is the nickel package. They won't get a chance to run that today if the Vikings are close, this will also help the Vikings. This is gonna be either a classic or a blowout. I'm going to put a few euros on Webb and the Vikes for the craic.

    Can't find any market offering Webb first touchdown scorer. Bastards.

    Peterson clearly still lording it over the Packers D.Webb looks like he won't be able to throw accurately so I fear AD will tire out in the latter stages.

    There will be a lot of that short inaccurate passing. But be warned, he can and probably will complete a long bomb at some stage

    Will the Vikes need any passing yards? The packers will need to put 10 in the box

    All Day tire out? No way!

    Bizarre play by Webb there, could have been a pick six.

    You know, with their dearth of weapons at WR Webb might be a blessing in disguise. Probably one of very best athletes at QB and he'll open up lanes for AP too against a Packers team that seem to be clueless against the run. They won't have been prepared properly for Webb and that should play in his favour too.

    Of course the ability to play that game all depends on the Vikings' defence keeping Rodgers relatively quiet. I wonder.

    Jesus Webb might get caught out if he keeps throwing the ball out like that when he's sacked
