I was hard watching because you knew at some point they'd need a touchdown, and you knew they weren't going to get it with Schaub.
The whole thing was crazy. The booing was extreme, then Schaub completes over the middle to AJ, and the crowd goes wild with cheers. Then back to the booing. I totally understand Tate's confusion on this (although he'd be better served not voicing it into an open mic).
I pay thousands of dollars per year to go to Texans games. If they don't play their asses off every game trying to win, THEN I'll feel cheated.
As a newly minted season ticket holder this year, I feel cheated also, but with less sunk cost at this point. But I am sliding down to chuck's level of hell on this. The target for my ire has been steadily rising from Schaub, to Kubiak to McNair. It really only makes sense that it's on McNair and his misguided faith in Kubiak (at best) or his moneygrubbing refusal to pay for a decent head coach.
I can only hope that consistent empty seats (they may be sold, but no shows don't drink and eat) and hostile home environment will prompt a change
for the better, rather than just a change. If it were me, I'd promote Phillips to head coach, and then hire the best rising star of an offensive coordinator and put him in sole charge of the offense - with the promise of the big clipboard in time.
I's also fire Kubiak now, because he doesn't need to have any influence over the draft process (and because I can't stand to look at his stupid fucking face).
