Grogansghost Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Like lots of people, I was surprised by the benching of Keenum on Sunday. Kubiak explained that he wanted to go more to a hurry up offense, and favored Schaub in that situation. Do people think this was a blip - or is there a good shot that Schaub sees some serious playing time this weekend? To me, it would make the most sense to see as much of Keenum as possible, he's clearly the future - but coaches fearing for their jobs can be unpredictable.

sausagekingchi Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 It could be that the coaching staff doesn't see Keenum as the future. Kid put up monster number's in college, but there is a reason no one drafted him. He lacks some of the physical attributes you look for in a franchise QB, most notably arm strength. Although for the life of me I don't know why they still think Schaub is the answer to anything. The move yesterday was puzzling and his explaination was horrible.

Bronco Billy Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Seeing Keenum perform - if you can call it that - in the 2 minute drill with the game on the line last week probably justified his removal when HOU dropped behind yesterday. That said, Keenum had stilled looked much better than I thought he would, though I do not think he is capable of starting. Amazing that NFL fans are stuck watching the likes of he and Tolzien at premium prices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if only they let the defensive players have more clean shots at the QBs we could be watching an entire league of backup QBs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historymike Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Might cost me a game: I picked Keenum up to cover Romo on the bye. I only needed him to be average, or even mediocre, but Keenum getting yanked left me in a bit of a hole. Anyway, I thought we had seen the last of Schaub this season, but it looks like Kubiak wants to get all Shanahan on us with the QB situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HowboutthemCowboys Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Case has been named the starter for this week FWIW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougsul Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 I used him as well this past week and got screwed. Although he has a great matchup against Jax this week, there is no way you could start him over Romo. I wonder if he will be afraid of getting yanked now. Qbs cannot player scared of getting pulled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darin3 Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Cost me a win against my boss/friend in my work league. The point differential between him and Luck, whom I benched in his favor, would have given me a 1 point win. Such is life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing that NFL fans are stuck watching the likes of he and Tolzien at premium prices. Only if as a team they are convinced that Schaub is still a legitimate answer to their QB problem or they have all ready decided Keenum is not the answer is the move to pull Keenum for Schaub justifiable in anyway.
