Title: Favre or Plummer
Post by scottjf8 on Sep 26^th, 2003, 9:15am

My starter all year has been Favre, but I have Plummer on the bench..

Should I start Plummer at home v. Detroit, and sit Favre, who has been very inconsistant/bad all year?

Yes, you should absolutely start Plummer regardless of who your other QB is this week.

Plummer is facing the Detroit Lions (who are among the worst in pass defense). Portis might not play. Mike Anderson left the game Monday night with a twisted knee, although he says he can play this weekend. Looks like Jake may need to go to the air against the Lions.

Plummer has 6 TDs in his last two games. I can't think of any QB that I would start ahead of Jake this week.

Plummer for sure!!!

Like Philly stated, Plummer has 6 touchdowns in his last 2 games, and now he faces the weak Lion defense. Go with Jake the snake!

I think Plummer will have a good game, and the Broncs may have to air it out a lot. But the Packers tend to do great against the Bears. And the Bears ain't lookin' so good. I'm not Favre's biggest fan, believe me. But this could be a very good week for him.

Plummer. It's a no-brainer since Farve has no one to throw to these days, what with the GB receiver corp all banged up.

OK, one more question, then...

I also have MIke Anderson.... according to ESPN NFL Live tonight, Portis most likely won't go...

if they announce Sunday morning that Portis isn't playing, I assume Anderson is the start in FF?

Yeah, it's almost certain that Portis won't go since it should be an easy win against the Lions. Look for Mike Anderson, who seems to be recovered from his twisted knee, to get the start.
