The "Quarterback Problem"!?!

By Gayang3 on Dec 11 2011, 10:12p 18

So now we've had a 2 game sample to look at what T.J. Yates brings to the table. Right now I am seeing,

Strengths

good poise under pressure (in the pocket and out side)
good accuracy in short the medium throws
cool, calm, in-control
relatively more mobile (maybe not as Vick, Tebow or Newton is, but still he can get a 3rd and 10 on his own)

Weaknesses

over throws some simple throws
misses to read open receivers sometimes

What is your assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of TJ?
And then, with Schaub coming back next season what should we do with our quarterbacks? I am sure Leinart will definitely be traded or let go. But how do we handle Schaub and Yates. Schaub will definitely have at least another 3,4 good years left in him and keeping Yates as a back up for that long will definitely slow down his growth. So what should we do? I am interested in your thoughts about this as well.

Poll

What do you think we should do?

68% Schub is the starter, no discussion, TJ can be the backup for a few more years aka Farve & Rogers. Any slow down in TJs growth will have to be taken in stride. (77 votes)
21% If TJ performs at the same level of better than Schaub in the next 4 games and the post season, we should trade Schaub for a early first rounder and get a WR to complement AJ (24 votes)
3% Schaub is still 30 and will have at least 5 good years in him. So lets trade TJ and get a great young WR of the future and grab a couple of 5,6,7 round QBs and groom them (4 votes)
2% Why not have both the QBs share snaps. One guy for one half and the other for the next half. This way we can get TJ snaps while protecting Schaub from any injuries. (3 votes)
3% Other. Please comment below (4 votes)
