Being reported that he’s done for the year…

Kubiak is a good coach. This is the best way for Leinart to break back in and audition for future job. The game plan will just change. Foster and Tate will get a great deal of work, but that will open up play-action for Leinart. It actually could HELP Andre Johnson’s numbers when he returns. Texans will still win the division going away and might actually morph into a better PLAYOFF team than they would have been.

Leinart gets a hungry Andre Johnson back with that two (almost three) headed monster backfield? He’s got a chance.

On another Texans note, how good has the addition of Wade Phillips been as D coordinator? Do the Texans fans on here think it’s more to do with the additions of Watt and Joseph, the D growing together, or Wade’s schemes/playcalling?

Too bad he didn’t miss yesterday. But the Bucs do have a history of making backup QBs look like Pro Bowlers, especially Curtis Painter on MNF.

What is a LisFranc injury?

“A Lisfranc injury refers to a rare injury to a joint in the center region (commonly known as the midfoot) of the foot. Although a lesser known injury, an injury in this region of the foot can be highly debilitating for an athlete who depends on their lower extremities for so much of their athletic performance. These easily overlooked injuries have recently threatened or adversely affected the careers of such well known athletes as Dwight Freeney of the Indianapolis Colts, Kevin Jones of the Detroit Lions and also Larry Johnson of the Kansas City Chiefs.”

I believe Lis Franc is a ligament named after Napoleon’s chief surgeon. When a cavalryman would fall off his horse, if his foot remained in the stirrup, it would bend the ankle backwards, resulting in straining or tearing of this ligament.

That’s your completely useless fact of the day. You’re welcome.

The Lisfranc fracture is a fracture of the foot in which one or all of the metatarsals are displaced from the tarsus. It is named after 18th- and 19th-century surgeon and gynecologist Jacques Lisfranc de St. Martin. Healing time is minimum 6 weeks.

This is a huge hit to the team. But with the way Foster and Tate are playing, hopefully they can continue to carry the load on offense. The D is playing amazing right now, so hopefully they keep it up down the stretch. With the state of the division, I’m confident that they’ll stay in first. I just hope they stay up long enough to fight for a bye.

Just read up on LisFranc injuries and if that is the case I don’t think he will be back for the season! Damn after the best start to a season ever and having the best record in the AFC after 10 weeks this really sicks for us Texans fans!

I’m not a Texans fan but that sucks and I hope Schaub is back in time for the playoffs.

Wow Schaub, and Andre Johnson, Arian Foster was already out, who is next Wade Phillips?

By: jasontexan

jasontexan — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 22:15:07 +0000

At least we still have Foster/ Tate/ Ward to keep the ball out of Leinart’s hand. We have the #1 defense in the League and 80 will be back! This one hurts, but we will be OK.

By: jessethegreat

jessethegreat — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 22:12:24 +0000

Expectations for Leinart were huge coming out, but if he’s ever going to shine, this is his opportunity. The Texans don’t need him to be the franchise. Just keep the offense stable enough to let Arian keep doing his thing behind the most under-rated offensive line in football.

I’d like to see the Texans in the playoffs something new and their fans deserve it for being teased by the team so often!But no Schaub and no Andre Johnson means trouble for them i think,even the d playing brilliantly and the great running game.

The last game of the season vs. the Titans could decide the south.

Who needs Schaub when you have Foster and Tate?

They should still be able to win division but first round bye could be out the window. Hopefully he isnt out for the season.

“Matt Leinart will start for the Texans”

And with those words, the Texans lead in the Division will evaporate.

Just as Cassel is finished for the year (and a few weeks after Carson comes back)..is there a rule of 3 for the max # of USC QBs that can be starting at a time?
