Well, I have been debating weather to start Phil Rivers over Warner, and after looking at the forecast for London on Sunday, it looks like a 50% chance of rain and fairly cold. After last years game looked like the Woodstock movie, I am going to stay away from Rivers, although I will be starting the Deuce. Should be a slugfest on the ground.

Insight?
Yes - last year's game was ugly, but how does a "50% chance of rain" compare to the typhoon conditions of a year ago? It was dumping buckets from kickoff to the end of the game last year - I don't get the impression that was normal, average London weather.

If I remember correctly it wasn't so much the severity of the weather as it was how badly the field drained the water. I could be wrong though.

I think it was a combination of both. Watch the weather and bet the under
How sucky will it be when the Chargers hard luck ways continue. In a totally fruadulant AFC west the Bolts lose games due to Eddie Pipes err in judgement, LT's toe, and the greed of the league forcing teams to play across the pond in a potentially crappy conditions (as opposed to SD lovely weather or Saints dome setting) and then deal with the jet lag. If the Bolts don't make the playoffs they have a real beef with the poor way the league is being mis-led by the stodgey NFL FO.
I think, therefore I am. I think fantasy, therefore I am unreal?

This makes me feel better about starting the Chargers Def than I have all year.
12 team/6pts TD/1pt 25yds pass/1pt 10yd r/r 08-09 Champ: Defending my title QB Cutler WR R. White, Welker, S. Holmes, D. Hester RB M. Turner, S. Slaton, D. Brown, L Betts, L Maroney M. Bush TE Shockey K Gotskowski Def: Dal. (platoon likely)
Yep, I am rolling with Warner. I think with Boldin back he is going to shred the Panthers. They haven't faced anyone with the O that AZ has, and the Saints had nobody healthy last week, (Shockey, Bush, Colston) all banged up.
. Two of the top passing offenses in the league . Two of the worst defenses in the league . Must win game for both teams . Different conferences . Grudge match
Maybe it's just me, but I'm not benching anyone in this game. Could be a low scorer or it could turn into a slugfest 60+ pointer.
