Stupid Metrodome roof!!! I would be way less concerned with my two WRs Earl Bennett and Johnny Knox getting me those points indoors!!

Yeah, I'm hoping it winds up 2-0...

Looks like Knox got you your points for sure.

I'm in the championship this weekend. Who would you start?

Eli Manning @ Packers

Jason Campbell Home vs Colts

Tim Tebow home vs Texans

I'm leaning towards Tebow. I just don't trust Eli in Green Bay and I also love any QB vs Texans. Except Rusty Smith.

Yuck. Eli. I dont trust a rookie QB in his 2nd start even against the Texans.

I'm in the Super Bowl this week with a nice +23 point projection right now. My QBs are
Josh Freeman against Seattle

David Garrard against Washington

or I could pick up one of these guys on the wire:
Tim Tebow against Houston
Kerry Collins @ KC
Rex Grossman @ Jax
Shaun Hill @ Miami

Any suggestions? Right now I'm going with Freeman, but Tebow sounds like a good pickup...

Its tough to go with Tebow, part of me thinks he explodes and part of me thinks he regresses, its basically a high-risk, high-reward thing IMO.

Kerry Collins is solid but he's playing against a decent KC defense that can rush the passer and cover WRs. Unless Nate Washington has a big day, Collins is not going to light up the scoreboard. He should do decent but nothing impressive.

Rex Grossman tends to be hot and cold. He plays well one game than completely sucks it up the next.

I would stick with Freeman and or Garrad who plays a weak Redskins defense that struggles against the pass.

I'm thinking Freeman over Garrard now that MJD looks to be out. I don't think the run game will be as good without MJD to share the load. The guy I'm playing against just picked up the Jax DST and Rashard Jennings in place of Pierre Thomas. I'm really really really hoping Jennings doesn't do crap without MJD to do the power running for him.

I like Freeman, but he just never goes off for 25+ points. Consistently gets me 15-20 each game, which is fine, but not great when I'm up against Aaron Rodgers...

Need some help at QB.

Rivers @ Cin or Schaub @ Den?

Rivers no question. AJ may be sitting out and Cincy is awful on D. Just check the weather though, I believe both are open air stadiums.

Man, I knew I should have listened to my gut and started Schaub. Rivers has been TERRIBLE!!!!!

What do you mean? They had nearly the same stats, only a 50 yard passing difference, and Schuab had a fumble. In my league they were 3 points different because Rivers loses 1 for the sack.

Rivers pulled it out in the end. I spoke too soon. At the time of me writing that, it was the 4th quarter and Rivers only had 5 fantasy points. Turned out okay. Too bad the championship game lasts two weeks instead of one. Looks like I might win this week.

In my league, Schaub scored 16 and Rivers 14. No big deal.
