With Tom Brady having been my clear #1 QB all season, I find myself in a bind. He's facing Jacksonville, which has the #2 defense in the league at home, and is just plain nasty, making me nauseous of starting him in what seems to be a low scoring game. My other options?
Philip Rivers @ Seattle
Tim Rattay @ Cleveland
Derek Anderson VS Tampa Bay
Rivers is up against Seattle, with a suspect defense, but on the road. However, his biggest games have come on the road (@SF, 334, 2TD/@CIN, 338, 3TD). There's also the problem of LT stealing all of his TD's.. but receiving TD's are also in the mix. Plus, I have LT on my team to ease the pain. Still, I'm here to maximize points.
Then there's Rattay and Anderson. Both would be projected to perform the same... Rattay has Galloway, and Anderson has both Braylon and JJ that have been producing. Rattay has had 1 big game against a big defense, and Anderson has had 3 solid games against 2 solid defenses. Both are young, both are out to prove themselves, and both against battered defenses also trying to prove something. And, both teams lack any competent running backs. The game's in Cleveland, which I'll give the advantage to the Brownies, because the bastards always win a game or two late to screw up their draft position.
What to do, what to do.... I'm leaning towards Rivers right now, but some opinions would be greatly appreciated.
