Help! Big Ben or Schaub?!?!

Postby kcspaz14 » Sun Oct 25, 2009 10:52 am

I'm 6-0 and I'm up against someone in my division that's 4-2. This is a huge game for me. I have Big Ben against Vikings and Schaub against 49ers. What do I do?!? Thanks!

Minn. very tough defense. I would ride Schaub this week. He is finally getting into a groove 3 weeks solid. Ben, he could struggle this week with a good pass rush in his face he is pron to making the bad throw.

Good luck!

Vikings are great at blitzes, but they give up big passing games. Good point that Ben usually makes bad decisions when the pressure is on, he relies on his pump fakes and sitting in the pocket to make plays happen. I'm going to stick with Schaub I think.

Schaub makes me uneasy because he'll have 10 points one week and then 30 the next. Ben is solid 20 points every week.

"Not only did the Vikings struggle last week in pass defense, but they lost their top cornerback Antoine Winfield to an ankle sprain."

Just read that... Man, what a tough decision!!! Anyone else can help? WHIR!

Go with Big Ben. Vikings are one of the worst teams at covering the TE...and the Steelers have one of the best ones in Heath. Plus, Winfield is out and that makes the Vikings even weaker on pass D. One more thing, Ben leads the league in pass yards...some people seem to forget that.

Ben may lead the league in passing yards, but Schaub leads the league in TDs...

Both good matchups, I'd go Schaub... more upside... Big Ben is typically a product of that good D getting him on the field... Minny runs the ball well and may eat up more clock..

Please help

Big Ben...He has been blitzed most in the NFL, and has 0 INTs agains the blitz and 4 TDs. Plus all Pittsburgh does is throw.

Please Help
