What does that mean?

Are you referring to Matt Schaub? He was barely OK in Houston.
I remember when he got the Texans into the playoffs with rookie QB T.J. Yates when Matt Schaub was injured. Matt Schaub was also good enough,with Andre Johnson & Arian Foster on offense,to make the Texans a competitive team,because of their strong defense.
You still haven't answered what was up with Tom Brady throwing those very short incomplete passes that were falling yards short in front of his intended receivers.

Makes sense, when you're paying someone who is not one of those guys $19m/year to run that offense.

I read somewhere that the reason Elway hired Kubiak was because they were planning for life after Manning. If this isn't Peyton Manning's last year as a player in the NFL,it certainly is his last year as a Bronco. This is also the last year on Brock Osweiler's contract. The Broncos really need to find out IF Osweiler is the answer for the future,or if they need to look elsewhere for the answer. The Broncos signed Christian Ponder,I'd rather stick with Osweiler.

When it comes to the increased rate of injuries that has come as a result,the new CBA(limiting practices & off season workouts) has been a disaster.

Onslaught of serious, scary injuries scars Week 8 of NFL season

Tony Romo(twice?),Andrew Luck,Peyton Manning,Joe Flacco,etc.,& that's just the QB's hurting this season. The list of other position players out with injuries,some potentially career ending,is endless.

Hard to get past the article's own admission that is never really countered by any other data point:

"there is no definitive evidence that injuries have increased because of the new CBA that has been put into motion in 2011. In fact, 2013 saw 31 ACL tears before the season and only 22 for last season. "

So unless there's a compelling piece of data staying otherwise bad weeks are an aberration, and in sure they happened prior to the last few years.

If injuries are up, state that and support it. After a few seasons it shouldn't take theorycrafting at this point.

It's anecdotal,but there has been a rise in complaints that pass blocking has gone down this season. You see it with the Seahawks,Colts,& Broncos,which is bad news for their QB's. I brought up the CBA because I heard one of the commentators bring it up last week(I forgot which game it was).

Roethlisberger as well.
