After suffering a bad loss to the hands of Tom Brady and the Patriots the Texans are now back in a familiar place, out of the playoffs and wondering what went wrong. The Texans set their expectations for the season pretty high this year basically saying it was a Super Bowl or bust team. Now after falling short of the goal of the Lombardi trophy the Texans must look to learn from this years disappointments, and turn that into success. Many fans are blaming Texans QB Matt Schaub for the loss, saying he's just not good enough. Schaub had a good year by anyone's standards, and though he did struggle at times he was able to guide the Texans to the league's second best record at 12-4 in the regular season.
Playing defense and running the ball should get you to the Super Bowl, the Texans are extremely blessed to be close to being near #1 in the league at both. The coaching staff in place in Houston know there ware things to fix. Like special teams, or a bigger more physical NT. But Schaub isn't on the list. I think Schaub's the best play action QB in the league from under center. Hard to argue that, and he compliments this offense. They just need to keep at it, and play their style of football because it's been proven to win games.
Schaub said this about the critics who blame him for the Texans loss: "It comes with the territory, you just look to get better and improve and next year." After sitting out the Texans first playoff run do to injury and this years ending so bitterly I'd say Schaub will be more than motivated to take this team back to the playoffs and hopefully to a Super Bowl.
