Schaub looked ok throwing the ball but there was no reason for him to throw most of the time, as it was easy for them to pick up 7 yards a clip on the ground.

Translation: it pays to have a running game and not be one-dimensional. It also pays to have guys who can kill QBs.

Yeah. I forgot to mention that Manning got pretty battered, especially by Mario Williams.

There most cerebral QB in the league can't be battered by fat, slow linemen. He's a sex-core processor.
