And don't judge solely on W-L record because he doesn't have the team's top TE, the team's top RB (also a UDFA if anyone recalls) and a piss-poor right side of an offensive line. However, it can be noted that every game he has played in, the Texans were close enough to win with a break or two. I don't hold him responsible for any of the four losses.

The numbers can be decieving on many levels. I would not judge Case off of W/L record alone, but it's a factor. I would not judge him off passer rating alone, but it's a factor. We are a bad scoring offense with him playing QB and that's a factor. He has been awesome at big plays and deep balls. He has been bad at moving the chains. He has been great in the first quarter. He has been terrible in the 2nd half. He is playing without Foster. AJ appears to love him.
There is plenty to intrigue me. He has not played himself into or out of a job this year and may well do either down the stretch. If Kubiak is coming back the best option is probably Case, something else high in the draft, and an attempt at an immediate reload and hoping this year was an anomaly (from McNair's perspective). Then Kubiak and Case get a year to win a future here.
But if Kubiak is not coming back it's a near gaurantee Case isn't either. He just hasn't done anything in the pros that would make a new coach tie his star to him.
