Start Matt Schaub With Confidence?

With Owen Daniels out for the season and Steve Slaton’s role unsettled, fantasy owners might have been anxious about starting Matt Schaub on the road against an underrated Colts defense. Fortunately for the Texans, the Colts might not have any defensive starters left by the time Sunday’s game rolls around. Consider the damage: cornerbacks Marlin Jackson (out for the season with a torn ACL), Kelvin Hayden (out with an injured knee), safety Bob Sanders (out for the year with a torn biceps) and linebacker Tyjuan Hagler (out for the year with a torn biceps) will all be missing.

↵While the Texans certainly face their own issues making up for the loss of Daniels, the Colts defense suddenly does not look as imposing. So yes, start Schaub with confidence
