Texans QB Matt Schaub Loses Piece Of Ear In Win Over Broncos

Broncos pass rusher Von Miller was called for a roughing-the-passer penalty in the third quarter of Sunday's game after hitting Matt Schaub. On the next play, Broncos linebacker Joe Mays hit the Houston Texans' star quarterback with a direct blow to the helmet. Schaub's helmet flew off, and he held his head in his hands. Another penalty.

"I felt fine. I lost a piece of my ear," Schaub said, via the Houston Chronicle.

Schaub missed one play, returned to the game and led the Texans to a 31-25 win in Denver. It was that kind of game for Schaub, who threw four touchdown passes, and a team that looks like the toughest squad in the AFC coming out of the game.

i would like to see a pic of it

 

They showed it on TV. Piece of the lobe tore off

 

ouch

 

Looks like he had an earring ripped out.

 

He can be like I had a gauge.

 

What stupid back to back penalties. The second one was brutal

 

Joe Mays' gonna get fined the heck out. Right out of the James Harrison playbook of dirty hits.

My guess is around 50K.

I watched it again, double the 50.

 

That was just beyond dirty. I know you don't usually get ejected for anything other than fighting but I wouldn't have complained if he was sent to the showers. His fine better have 6 numbers in it.

 

was mike tyson at the game?

 

I was just wondering if him and Evander are going to start a club. Maybe they can invite Mick Foley in too.
