Leinart will do enough for our offense to limp into the playoffs. Then we'll get our butts handed to us in the first round by Baltimore or the Jets.... We're done

Obviously not good news. Kubiak on 610 would not confirm lizfranc injury or out for season. But Scgaub would be seeing specialists this next wk. And Leinart will start against Jacksonville.
If it is lizfranc this is a mid foot fracture. Severity depends on if bone shifted. I had this in HS , wore a cast with heel and walked on it for 4 weeks then rehabbed two weeks so must have been a minor hairline fracturre. I think Leinart can do ok, we will see soon enough. We do have a good defense and good ground game and Andre coming back so trying to stay positive. Last edited by Nconroe; 11-14-2011 at 06:22 PM.

Please, please, please don't take him to Yao's foot surgeon.
Roethlisberger leaves Houston with a boot on his foot and doesn't miss a week. Schaub leaves Tampa with less than that and he's done for the year. Just shoot me. A quick look at Wikipedia says non-surgery treatment is out six weeks. If screws are inserted, recovery time is 6-12 weeks. That tells me that there's a chance he could come back for the playoffs in a best-case scenario. Keep in mind, those estimations are for typical patients, not athletes.

If Alex Smith can win, why can't Leinart?
Kubes is considered a QB "guru" and he wanted him back. And don't bring up Carr, he said what he had to say as he was trying to get a job. He came into the season knowing his ass was on the line, and he chose to bring him back. He's got the bye week, and a scrimmage against Jax to get him ready. And yes, I am scrounging for any sort of optimism I can find.......

I'm sittin here thinking how glad I am that we have two weeks for Kubs to work with Leinhart to get him ready for Jax. We will need to be able to run the ball, as well as pass, because Del Rio will have a defense that will eat up a one diminsional game. And we have to change up the way we are going to pass block because Leinhart is a lefthanded gunner. Winston beware.

maybe they fall apart, but anyone who thinks that they can't win 3-4 of their remaining games with leinart is not being realistic. schaub is important to this team, but they aren't going to turn into the manningless colts due to this. the defense is good, the running game is good, and they play jax, carolina, indy, and tenn in 4 of their remaining games. they should be able to win all 4 of those no manner who the qb is. the defense gave up a total of 28 points in the three games against the titans, colts and jags(and these points were on drives starting at the texans' 8 and 26). the defense is not going to all of the sudden cave, the o-line isn't going to all of the sudden forget how to block, and foster and tate aren't going to all of the sudden start sucking.
this is definitely a blow to hopes of an afc title, but they should still get to at least 10 wins unless leinart is absolutely awful.

No you are right, the hope to end up with something like a 12-4 record and get a bye and eventually a shot at the big game in Indy in February is surely gone with Schaubs injury, but crap happens and there's nothing we can do about it.
