Sit R. Moss for Sims-Walker this week?

Postby CBartley123 » Fri Oct 09, 2009 8:54 am

Moss will draw Bailey all game. Sims-Walker has the Seahawks to worry about. Is this a good move?

I see your line of thinking but you have to remember who Walker went against last week...the most beatable and easiest high school corners in the game. It's tough but I really can't imagine benching Moss except in favor for a very few select WR's. Remember that Brady has even more protection than we previoulsy thought now with the ref's helping him. I think Sea gets punished by MJD all game...but also keep in mind this game is in Quest field. I'd roll Moss. Nice problem to have though...who else are you starting?

Never sit your studs. You didnt draft Moss in the 1st/2nd round to play the matchup game JMO

Never be afraid to sit studs regardless where they were drafted. (Just ask the people who played Brees against the Jets D and expected miracles. I advised them to SIT Brees for other options. They didn't, they lost.) This week I'm sitting Turner (1rst round pick) for Moreno (12th round pick). At this point in the season, track records are being established and matchups must be considered.

IMHO NE running game is lacking so they'll effectively force Brady to throw to beat them. Bailey will draw Moss and he's been very, very effective at shutting down WR's so far this year. Now it appears Fred Taylor, NE's leading rusher, may need ankle surgery (article here: http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d ... nfirm=true) which reinforces my first sentence. Also, Bradys past knee injury, although happening last year in the first game is hurting him this year forcing him to throw off his back foot to protect the knee when under significant pressure.

The Denver D is for real and I see them effectively shutting Brady down (1 TD, maybe), especially since the game is in Denver.

On the other hand, Garrard has an effective running game with MJD which an already suspect Seattle defense must respect and he's found a new toy in Sims-Walker which opens up the passing game.

I'd play Sims-Walker, but, that being said, I've been known to be wrong before.
