giants will be winning by 14-20 at the half, manning will not throw a pass in the 4th quarter.
gb can beat min, but will likely NOT blow them away, hence...at least he will be throwing all 4 quarters...both decent plays either way, but rodgers wants to show favre something...
rodgers, 27-42, 318 yds, 2 tds, 2 int, 25 rush yds
manning, 16-24, 215, 2 tds, 0 int, 3 rush yds

I agree and disagree with legend. I agree that Manning won't be throwing late, but I disagree with the stat line. I think he'll light them up in the first half, and throw at least one TD in the 3rd Q. KC sucks way too much to not play Eli this week.

I would start a healthy Rodgers every week over Eli. I really like Rodgers over Eli this week. I expect a shootout in Minnesota with a lot of passing yards from Rodgers because it is very difficult to run on the Vikings. The Giants should run all over K.C., jacobs and Bradshaw could each run for 100 yards this week. Eli shouldn't have to throw much.

Yup, I agree with TruNinerFan. The Giants are going to run the ball a lot, so go with Rodgers. Good luck this week.

I like Eli's matchup a lot more than Rodgers, but just like last week - the Giants are going to run the ball down KC's throat & Carr will be on the field in the 4th.

Go with Rodgers - he's a must start every week IMO.

I'd go with Rogers. Giants are a running team they are going to run 3rd and 4th quarter.

I disagree. A healthy Rodgers behind a line that can't protect = very few downfield opportunities. He'll be dumping off and going mid-range. Unless one of the receivers manages to bust one after the catch, I doubt he'll put up long TD's.

I'd go Eli, his matchup is much friendlier and he has Manningham to go deep, but if everyone agreed, this would be one boring board..:)
