tough call. I would start Garcia as I expect he is highley motivated to kick the crap out of the feather heads. You may get a little more insight from my post on Te.s

Collins is playing the Seahawks which means there won't a defense on the field. Collins also has the opportunity to either match or break a record regarding 300 yd games, and I think his coaches and mates will try to make that happen.

I wish I had that choice to make.

Anyway, I agree with Venom. Seattle D has been very porous early. Collins has shown that he is going to throw it early and often with Tiki hurt and Dayne, well, he's just bad.

Collins over Garcia.

If It was a money league, I want to be in a league where you can actually pick up Jeff Garcia. If it weren't for money though, I wouldn't want to be in, because I doubt I would have much fun in a league like that.

Now for who to start:

Washington's secondary has not lived up to it's billing. More specifically, CB Fred Smoot has not lived up to his mouth. Champ Bailey's been solid but Smoot has been repeatedly turned around. Smoot will likely be lined up on Stokes or Streets with Bailey plus Safety help rolling over the top on Owens. It's been effective so far, but look for Owens to find a way to get in the endzone again.

The Seahawks finished the 2001 season ranked 22nd in passing yards allowed, 23rd in quarterback fantasy points allowed, 19th in wide receiver fantasy points allowed, and 17th in tight end fantasy points allowed. So far this season Seattle is the 4th rated defense is passing yards allowed. Of course this is likely because they are absolutely terrible at stopping the run.

The key to the Seahawks is that teams don't NEED to pass to be successful against them. there is a reason that Seattle is 4th in passing yards allowed this season. They get run on all day. Collins will not put up big numbers, because he won't have to. The Giants will simply pound the ball on the ground all day, and win the game.

Don't discount the bad feelings stemming from the preseason game where Coach Mariucci thought the Redskins and Steve Spurrier tried to show them up. There were numerous references back then of "wait 'till week 3"

I don't think either will be a bad play, but Garcia is the way to go this week. Whoever dropped him so that you could pick him up is a BONEHEAD
