I am having a really hard time starting Brees.

The Jets allow ONLY 180 yards passing a game and 11 points.

Palmer faces the Browns, and they look like the worst D in league.

Well well well

I guess now everyone sees what I was concerned about.

Brees should never be benched?

Well, if you wanted to start Palmer then start Palmer...You were clearly looking/hoping only one person would say Palmer and you would feel justified--but trust me i feel your pain, I have Brees in a league as well (and Palmer in others...) Sometimes you can't win 'em all...

hey man this happens in reverse too. and 9 times out of 10 you should start your stud. I sat calvin johnson today in favor of Jericho Cotchery because Matt Stafford is looking abysmal. What happened? Johnson got 20 points and cotch got 9.5. Moral of the story? everyone was correct in telling you to start Brees, this guy is good enough to pay little attention to matchups. good luck going forward.

Seriously, who would have predicted the Saints score their first 2 TDs on defense. 2nd quarter, 99 yard int return by Sharper and a fumble recovery from a sack in the end zone with 9 minutes left in the first half.

The Saints went into lead management mode from there and Brees fantasy value took the hit. This sort of thing just happens. Chalk it up to bad luck but noone who said start Brees was factoring in the possibility that the biggest fantasy play in that game would be the Saints D.
