The Texans have scored 61 points in the last two weeks and Matt Schaub is looking like he'll do more than hand off to Ahman Green and Ron Dayne. Schaub is 24-for-33, hasn't turned the ball over, and is making quick decisions. He isn't throwing deep a lot, but is very accurate in the short game. And he's been using the tight end a lot. Twelve of his 31 attempts this preseason have targeted the position with Owen Daniels having 10 of them. Daniels and Jeb Putzier have eight catches apiece, so the tight end looks like it will be a big part of the passing game. The no-name wideouts are playing better than their resumé's projected, so defenses may have to account for more than just Andre Johnson. You can't make him a No. 1 quarterback yet, but Schaub will be a nice surprise for some fantasy teams.
