Title: WDIS?
Post by BarnabyWilde on Dec 3^rd, 2004, 10:03am

7-7 record, on the cusp for the playoffs. Need to make some good decisions this week.

QB: Start 1: Bulger vs. SF or Favre vs. Philly?

RB: Start 2: Barber vs. Wash, T. Jones vs. Minn, Dunn vs. TB, Zereoue vs. KC?

WR: Start 3: Toomer vs. Wash, Gates vs. Den, Clayton vs. Atl, Rod Smith vs. SD, Gardner vs. NYG, Nate Burleson vs. Chi?

Both should be good plays, but I think Bulger could end up with slightly better numbers just because the Philly defense gives up yards, but not many points. SF is more than willing to give you yards AND points.

Barber and Jones. Dunn is losing carries to Vick and Duckett and Zereoue is hard to count on.

Rod Smith, Antonio Gates, and then its tough to come up with a third. I'd lean towards Clayton.

I would go...

Bulger at QB. He should have a great statistical game overall. Favre may win the game versus Philly, but not put up great stats. Bulger is the safer bet, but putting Favre on your bench is always a dubious thing.

At RB, go with Barber, you just can't bench your far-and-away #1 guy. After that, I would go with Jones. He should pile up some stats against a swiss-cheese Vikings D.

At WR, I would stick it out with what I think is going to be a fairly high-scoring affair and go with Gates and Rod Smith. As per my Broncos FF-specific team report (http://www.ffpro.com/teamreports/broncos/broncos-footballinfoframes.htm), I see the Broncos having a bum week, but they'll still rack up some numbers even if it is in garbage time.

I too would go with Bulger, Barber and Jones.

The WR question is tougher. I would still go with Smith
