bakes,
 
First off, welcome to the Gridiron!
 
 
This is a tough call, as both QB's are on the road vs. pretty solid defenses. After watching Carr do well in Miami, I think I'd choose Bledsoe slightly over Brooks.

As a Dolphin fan (who happens to have Bledsoe) use Bledsoe.
 
2 big reasons.
 
1. He torched the Dolphins last year late in the season (remember that was the game that Williams had 2oo yards and didn't get a carry in the fourth quarter because the Fish were so far behind.
 
2. If Testeverde can throw for 373 then I am sure Bledsoe will do just fine.
 
As a Dolphin fan with Bledsoe as QB I am rooting for just like last week.  Lots of yards and no points.

Yes, WELCOME, bakes, to "the Gridiron"!  (Be sure to check your private messages!  Link is in the upper right-hand corner!)
 
As for the issue at hand, I too would advise going with Bledsoe, but it is a VERY close call.  Bledsoe's just got the hot hand right now and look at the kinds of #'s Testaverde and Carr put up against the Dolphins.

Well...I personally would go with Brooks.  I wish I could offer a scientific reason.  But unfortunately, there isn't one.
 
Actually, how about this.  Go with the one you drafted first.

I'd go with Bledsoe. Buffalo's running game has been terrible so far and Bledsoe will have to do a lot of work if Buffalo is to stand a chance. Not to mention, I read a story about Moulds supposedly spitting on one of Miami's cover guys and I guess he's pretty pissed at the accusation. He sounds primed for a BIG game... Moulds and Bledsoe should put up solid numbers. Good luck.

Great point Dirk!
I guess that is as scientific as any.  There must be some formula that cause you to draft one over the either.
 
However, I am sticking to my guns and syaing Bledsoe

Well guys I went against the majority & chose Brooks.  Thank God I did.  My team was awful yesterday.  Alexander was too busy playing doctor, Moss was scoreless again & Burress was scoreless for the 1st time this season.  I'm only up by 2 points going into tonight's game.  I've got Janikowski & he's got Elam.  Needless to say, I'll have my eyes glued to the tube tonight.  If I pull off this win I'll be the luckiest man in FF.

He's still going to be playing tonight... and the handcuffs shouldn't affect his FGs much.

Again I am shown that I don't know much.
 
But at least I can say I went down in flames and took my own advicew Bledsoe.
Who would think that Carr and Testeverde can look good against Miami and Bledsoe looks like crap!

All I can say is....

When in doubt, go with the guy you drafted higher.

I may go back to Bledsoe in Week 4.  Philly D is pretty banged up & their offense is offensive.  I know it's said every year, but doesn't it seem like a ruff season already?  Faulk, Culpepper & so many others going down w/ injuries.
