First of all, he's day-to-day, so it's a pointless conversation. He will most likely be active for the final 2 games.
Losing Schaub is NOTHING like losing a top level QB. I'm not saying TJ Yates is on his level, but the way the Texans are constructed makes them able to withstand an injury to a QB. Like Joey said, they are a run first team with a controlled passing game. They have not been a pass-happy team at all this year, mostly because Schaub simply isn't good enough for that. Having had the same 5 guys on the OL for every single play this year has been huge for the team.
They could easily lose to the Jets in the first round because of inexperience, the fact that the Jets are playoff seasoned, or many other reasons. But, I'd bet against any of those reasons being not having Schaub or Johnson.
