In leagues that i have Rivers i start him. Just not over guys like Manning/Brees and Rodgers.

I could use a little advice. Should I start Rivers or Vick vs. the Giants? The "experts" all recommend starting Vick, but something tells me the Giants will be playing pissed. Rivers is playing as good as he has ever been, so to me it seems like a no brainer. I am definitely over-thinking this...

Oh yeah, MJD vs. ST. Louis or Woodhead? This is why I hate having Chargers on my team...

Rivers and Woodhead. No brainer. MJD has shown nothing this season and just lost his best lineman. Woodhead should get about 80 yards combined and a TD.

Should i trade Cobb for Luck? Its a 2 QB league and i have RG3/Rothliesber. I would have Antonio Brown/Garcon/Shorts at WR. Martin/Spiller at RB

QB- Luck
QB- RG3
RB- Martin
RB- Spiller
WR- Brown
WR- Garcon
TE= Gates

Or

QB- RG3
QB- Rothliesberger
RB- Martin
RB- Spiller
WR- Cobb
WR- Garcon or Brown

Do you start 2 QBs? If so, I'd say do it.

Well its a league with an OP slot. And good QBs almost always score more than a 3rd WR or RB. And Luck could be a top 5 qb.

I love Cobb, but that looks like a decent deal since you have Garcon and Brown in line to start.

What's the scoring system? Cobb is significantly more valuable in a PPR league.

Luck won't be a top 5 QB based on his offense. They just don't throw it enough. Pep Hamilton loves to run the rock too often + runs it in the red zone a lot. Borderline QB1 right now.

Which makes him a threat to score a rush TD. Hes put up over 30 yards a game and 2 scores already. Hes a top 5 QB in my league. Rush tds are 6 points and pass TDs are 4. Cobb will have games where Nelson and Jones are the main guys. I like that Garcon and Brown are targeted over 10 times a game. Cobb is a beast but my 2nd qb is Roth. That concerns me with all his TOs.

I also could have Brady instead of Luck.

[Beerman]

Ouch have you seen Luck's schedule? He faces a ton of good defenses going forward. His playoff schedule is tough with Cin, Hou, and KC on tap.

I would actually go after Rivers. Giants, Den, and Oakland in his playoff schedule. Should be a points bonanza.

He just put up 20 points against the Seahawks.

I like Brady if we know for sure Gronk comes back this week AND is healthy. He should open up that entire offense and give Brady his security blanket back.
