Case Keenum To Start Against Jacksonville

[jonathanlambert33]

Matt Schaubs return to the Houston offense will not continue against Jacksonville in Week 12.

Texans coach Gary Kubiak said Monday that Case Keenum will be the starting quarterback against the Jaguars. Kubiak pulled Keenum in the second half of Sundays loss to the Raiders, turning to Schaub with the Texans down 28-17. Schaub was able to lead the Texans to a pair of field goals, but the game ended with him arguing with wide receiver Andre Johnson on the sideline after the Texans failed to score on four tries from inside the Oakland 10-yard line.

Kubiak explained his decision on Sunday as one he made because of adjustments to the game plan and protections that Keenum wasnt experienced with at this point in his career. Kubiak said hed make the same decision again under the same circumstances.

I didnt want to put a young guy in a bad situation. Id do it again. I tried to help out quarterback and offensive line, Kubiak said, via John McClain of the Houston Chronicle.

If Kubiak does make the same move with Schaub at Reliant Stadium again, the Texans offense may have to be ready with the silent snap count they were forced to break out against the Raiders.

I really am starting to think Matt Schuab is done in Houston....
 
That arguing with Andre Johnson..ouch, could really hurt his chances, especially if Keenum can dominate and win games.

He was done as soon as he got benched for an undrafted guy who weighs like 170 pounds lol

 

[Pugz]

hes done as a starter imo

well jacksonville could use him i guess.

Keenum never should have been pulled to begin with. Other than losing games (which falls way more on the coaching staff), he's been real good.
