Andre Johnson leaned back in his locker and laughed. The memory of the Houston Texans' inability to stay on the field in past seasons made the All-Pro receiver chuckle.
Johnson, who has been with the Texans since 2003, didn't find anything funny about his offense's futility. This season is different, thanks in large part to somewhat anonymous Matt Schaub, who can be found surrounded by Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Kurt Warner, Drew Brees, Brett Favre and Ben Roethlisberger near the top of most of the NFL's quarterback statistics.
Eight years into the franchise's existence, Schaub has made the Texans playoff contenders for the first time.
"I understand my role in our offense and what we're trying to get done," he said. "I understand what we have offensively and the skills and what each player brings to the table so that we can play to those strengths. I just feel like I'm much more comfortable this year with what we're doing."
