Carson Palmer vs Pitt or Favre vs San Francisco.. WHIR!

Postby SmokyMcNasty » Wed Sep 23, 2009 6:27 am

Both QBs I have are facing stout defenses this week..

Carson Palmer, coming off a 4 touchdown performance this past week, vs a tough Pittsburgh defense (although more against the run than the pass)

or

Brett Favre, coming off a solid but not spectacular week, vs a 49er defense that has shut down the air attack of both teams they've faced so far, including Kurt Warner and the Cardinals potent offense.

I'm leaning towards Palmer because Favre just doesn't pass enough on a run-heavy Vikings offense.. So who would you start? WHIR!

It's a tough call, but based on what we've seen up to this point (Palmer can, and is, throwing a lot while Favre isn't; Pitt's D has only two sacks thus far this year) I'd say go with Palmer.

i'd go w/ palmer. pitt's d is not as stout w/out polomalu roaming the secondary, and there's no reason for farvuh to throw downfield w/ AD in the backfield.
good luck! ;-D

Palmer will have more opportunities to air it out, so i would go with him.

I think Palmer is the better play tomorrow. Pitt will stop the run and Palmer will be forced to throw. Favre will be more of a game manager tomorrow.
