    Matt Schaub will be on a short leash, according to NFL.com. Not only was he nearly replaced in the lineup this week by Yates, but should Schaub struggle against the Rams, Michael Silver reports that his "benching could come at any time -- even in-game -- and on a permanent basis."

    “It was a tough decision, real tough, but I feel like it's the best thing for our team,â€￾ Kubiak said this week of his decision to not bench Schaub (via the Houston Chronicle). “A lot of thought went into it. I talked to him about my process so he understands where I'm coming from. We talk a lot. It's not like that's the first time we've talked.â€￾

    SteveRobWhatever's Take: The run Schaub is on right now is pretty bad. I can't imagine them going back to him ever if he throws another pick-6. What are the odds? No, seriously...what are the odds. I might need to call my bookie before kickoff and get some action on those numbers!
