Last minute advice?
« on: Dec 19th, 2004, 12:51am »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
What do you guys think about these choices ?
 
My pathetic QBs: (Pick one)
 
Drew Bledsoe @ CIN
Chad Pennington vs. SEA
David Carr @ CHI
 
Thinking of Pennington, despite the shoulder issue, hoping that all the media criticism gives him incentive to throw for more than 200 yards this week.
 
RB: (Pick 2)
 
Shaun Alexander @ NYJ
Brian Westbrook vs. DAL
Willis McGahee @ CIN
 
Thinking of Westbrook and McGahee.
 
Thanks!

QB:
1.  Bledsoe - The CIN D will give it up to the BUF RBs, but the CIN O will also score.  That keeps the BUF passing game in play.  Except for Boller, CIN has given it up to QBs lately.
 
2.  Pennington - Chad's shoulder, weather, should go to the run game.
 
3.  Carr - Bears D, no pass protection, weather, not a shoot-out.
 
RB:
1.  McGahee - CIN gives up the farm to RBs.
 
2.  Alexander - Jets run D.  Unless he gets in the passing game.
 
3.  Westbrook - Dicey.  It could go to the run for weather, the Iggles could hold back things for the play-offs.  Just don't know.  Least reliable.
 
Hey, Jake.  Are we the last two people on the planet who are still awake??????????????????????????

Thanks Callie, I have a feeling I'm gonna get stomped no matter who I choose.
 
Yeah, I'm not usually up this late either, I got sucked into the Panther/Falcon game.  
 
Thanks again for the advice.

I agree with Callie on the rb's but Pennington is a piece of crap this year.  I drafted him, but his numbers are almost as bad as the ones for my Bears.  I would go with Carr,  it looks like Urlacher is out and that offense can explode at any time.
 
Bledsoe in Cincy is not a bad option either, but he is off and on also.  Who knows what Drew will do?

hard choice for bad bunch of QB's.
 
keep in mind that SNOW and strong winds are forecast for today CIN.   RAIN in NY.    
SUNNY & strong winds in CHI.
 
tough to call but i actually would rank them:
 
1) Pennington - hasnt played well lately but CMart has a good matchup today and should open up passing game on weak SEA road team
 
2) Bledsoe - has shown some life the last 4 weeks and McGahee has a great matchup which should open up passing game.  DEF has been playing great.  i also think BUF still has a chance for playoffs so will be going hard.  not sure about CIN playoff chances.  if weather stays nice in CIN - i might actually bump Bledsoe up.
 
3) Carr - just horrible lately.  D Davis should get most of the workload in this game
 
[i also have Bledsoe but i'm playing Collins over him - better matchup & good weather plus he's at home]
 
RB's are easier:
 
1) Alexander - stud  
2) McGahee - great matchup - playing like a stud
3) Westbrook - overall stud, BUT, if PHI gets up big - Reid will prob start pulling out the starters like McNabb, TO & Westbrook
 
[i'm playing Westbrook & Alexander myself in 1 league but my only other option was Bettis who i left on my bench w/ 20 pts]
 
 
good luck.  KC.
