    Tired of dismantling us from the outside, figures he'll give it a shot from the inside.

    Makes sense, they want a vet and they might have a deal on the table for Schaub, it would be a step back at the QB position, but it's just a stop-gap

    Can't depend on whatever rookie they bring in out the gate and I don't won't to see Schaub, and considering what else is out there _ it's an ok move... I guess.

    There's your smart QB folks. Teddy can't compete with a Harvard kid.

    Tally me on the side that would be 100% fine with him as our starter next year.

    People want Schaub gone, but they also don't want any vet that's available. Do you really just want us to go into the season with nothing but Case and a Rookie?

    Am I the only one who thinks signing Michael Vick should be a no-brainer at this point?

    Hardly a no-brainer. He's likely going to make more money than we can realistically afford. If Mccown and Henne to paid $4m plus, Vick should get at least $6mm.

    Fitzpatrick is probably a safer play than Schaub at this point, albeit unspectacular. I'm fine with Fitz while we groom a draft pick or even waiting until next year's draft to (hopefully) grab a true franchise QB.

    They'd be signing him to be a back up...not a starter...so it's not a stop gap.
