Not yet. Schaub has yet to play a meaningful game in December. The Texans haven't been in the position to get into the postseason. That being said I am not slamming the guy.
Romo
13 Games 3448 yards 61.3 Pct 7.7 AVG 26 TD 14 INT 91.4 Rating 7 Fumbles lost
Schaub
11 Games 3043 yards 66.1 Pct 8.0 AVG 15 TD 10 INT 92.77 Rating 4 Fumbles lost
One of the most important stats
Romo 1-3 in December
Schaub 3-1 in December
Would Cowboy fans take Schaub on their team instead of Romo? As a Texans fan I'm glad to have Schaub on the team. Sure he makes terrible mistakes at times but he does show up when it counts and he was a very crucial part of the Texans end season run.

yeah that was after starting off like 1-6 or some .
Get back to me when Schaub can play 1) an entire season healthy, and 2) an entire season without putting the team in a huge hole right off the bat.
Romo didn't play the entire year healthy either. And mikey is right about not knowing whether Schaub can play in a big game yet but we already know Romo can't.
I disagree slightly. I thought the game against the Giants was big but so were the games against Baltimore and Philly and it didn't happen. And of course the playoffs mean the most and he is 0-2. To be fair though, if it was just Romo, then the solution would be simple. That is the price of fame though for an NFL QB...they get all the glory of the wins and the all the blame for the losses.
I actually like Schaub better than Romo. Seems like more of a leader and is making the most with his opportunity. 6-5 record as the starter this past season. Injuries hurt him but over a full season, he'd pass for more yards than Romo. Next season will be his third with the team which typically is a good time to evaluate a player. I expect Schaub to put up better numbers than Romo in 2009.
Romo, if he can get an offensive line in front of him is a damn damn good quarterback.
When the offensive line this year for the boys was healthy thats when Romo was at his best.
Schaub is agood QB, but Romo can move out of the pocket, throw on the run.
Schaub is too much of a pocket passer.
If I was given the choice, everytime I'm taking Tony Romo.
he's gotten through an NFL season without breaking like a china doll. Schaub hasn't.
Agreed, as a Texan fan, theres a part of me that wants the Texans to explore trading up and getting the QB from Georgia, his name escapes me right now, but, I don't think Matt Schaub is an NFL level quarterback, and the e rack is definately not an NFL quarterback as demonstrated by this season.
The Texans are one offensive lineman, a couple defensive players, and a consistent quarterback away from the playoffs.
The Dolphins have given the blueprint for how to do turn around a sesaon, and that was a 1-15 team, not a 8-8 should've been 9-7 or 10-6 team.
Stafford is a bust in the making. Weakest QB class in years. a great OL class, though.
Schaub has the 8th best QB rating in the entire NFL (Romo is 9th). He had a winning record in 2008. He lead the Texans with the 3rd best offense in the NFL. 277 yards passing per game. But yeah....he's not an NFL level quarterback
Romo "finishing" a season is a matter of opinion. Just ask his fantasy owners how Romo "finishes" a season.
Romo has always had a great run game and a good o-line to help him along. Last season he didn't have any running game or protection what so ever but still managed to put up decent numbers.
How about Neither!
OK, Sorry. Almost anyone is better than Romo! Schaub is wayyy more solid. I'm surprised that Romo can tie his laces and suit up all the rest of his equipment without falling apart.
Not very sure about his football IQ either. Why could we not have just cloned Dan Marino or Roger Staubach? So Unfair!
Romo crumbles under pressure in important games.
The jury is still out as to how Schaub will react in an important game.
Maybe next year Schaub can stay healthy and get the chance to play in a high pressure/important game.
all we know is romo can't play in big games. schaub has yet to be in one, but you'd have to take him over romo.
Romo isn't the problem, the problem is the drama queen wearing # 81. That guy is a cancer and the coaching staff and owner don't have the testicles to put him in his place. I'd ship him out, we have players that can do what he did last season without the ing and moaning.
Romo is the better qb, but Schaub has the best WR.
Schaub has better weapons. , when the guy played at UVa, he had great weapons. He was a great pocket passer there who was a product of Welsh's system.

better get ne quarterback cassell
Shaun Hill was 3-1 in December, I guess he's better than Romo too.
If you were to change that to "elite NFL quarterback" or "All-Pro quarterback" or "the top-flight QB the Texans really need to get to the next level" your comment would stand up a lot better.
The Texans were not a factor in the playoff chase, so that 3-1 record says nothing about how Schaub plays under pressure.
Me >>> Romo
I have to say Schaub.
Ok in a packaged deal who would you rather have.
Schaub, Andre Johnson, Mario Williams
or
Romo, T.O., Dware
Romo's mindset as displayed by his comments and demeanor are what bother me about him. After the loss to the Wagles he said something to the effect of "it's just football, we'll try to win next year but if we don't then ok". Is that something that a champion in any sport has ever said? Can you imagine Timmy, Jordan, or Tiger Woods saying something like that? Or Aikman and Irvin?
That drive to win and leadership that drives a winning team just isn't there from the HC or QB, and it has to be there from those two.
