QB woes? Who Should I Start

Recommended Posts

SCORING FOR QB 40 yds = 1pt all TDs 6 pts rushing/ 20 yds/pt -1 sack -2 INT -2 fumble lost.

 

 

So I am 4-1-1, second most FPs in my league, and yet have a complete abomination at QB. Trading is pretty thin in this league and any coach with a good backup or 2nd QB is not approachable for a trade. So the wire has given me:

 

Marc Bulger

Trent Edwards

Kerry Collins

 

I'll make do...but looking at this week's matchup, man I don't know.

 

Collins at KC but I try to start QBs at home.

 

Edwards at home vs SD? SD shut down the Pats last week and I am still not sure just how bad was that concussion. Ghosts of Stan Humphries appear when I close my eyes.

 

I played Bulger last week and got positive points (1) for the first time this season at QB so while I feel loyalty I dont think this is the week to use him.

 

So , Help?? Leave a link, will rate yours.

I like Edwards. San Diego stopping the Pats passing game had more to do with Cassel's horrible timing and poor decision-making; he was reluctant to ever push the ball downfield, and generally seemed to wait half a second to a second too long on many of his throws. Edwards is no all-pro, but he's up against a still-poor Chargers pass D and probably better than Kerry Collins. If you're 4-1-1 with bad QBs, you can probably keep up your pace with Edwards as long as he is healthy to go this week.

Hey thank you for the responses - I put this out there because I did lean towards Edwards, but was wondering if overcoaching was happening and I would get responses "Are you kidding me? Have you seen how bad the Chefs are this year?" as I called them going 2-14 even before the Croyle injury.

 

To answer the one comment about depth - I'm in a 14-team league, TD-heavy (no PPR, 20 yds/pt rush and rec) and my lineup outside of QB/TE is solid. I beat the best team in the league week 3 and took out the last undefeated team last week. I am better than all but one team and since I beat them already, just waiting to see them in the Super Bowl :thumbsup:

 

QB Edwards, Collins, Bulger (Drafted Kitna, Garrard)

RB MB III, R. Bush, D. Williams, Hightower, Kevin Smith. Drafted Sticky Ricky and Ray Rice, K Smith is a WW pickup

WR Fitzgerald, B Marshall, V Jackson

TE Z. Miller

K Crosby

DEF Tampa, SF.

 

 

if only I hadn't cut Garrard wk 3 I would be in real good shape, but now its week-by-week matchups with Tier III QBs.

 

Thanks again everyone for the advice, good luck week 7 to everyone!
