Playoffs - Need a QB!!

Postby JRM4833 » Tue Dec 08, 2009 10:38 am

Here's my roster:

QB: Flacco
RB: C. Johnson, M. Barber, K. Moreno, J. Charles, R. Cartwright, L. Johnson
WR: A. Johnson, D. Mason, B. Edwards, D. Bowe (just nothing out there at WR to bother)
TE: Carlson (Meh)
K: Tynes
D: Packers, Patriots

We have a flex spot which I obviously fill with a RB.

I'm wondering whether to stick with Flacco v. the Lions or maybe make the switch to Young v. St. Louis or Smith AZ. As bad as Flacco has looked, can I really take him out when he'll finally be facing off against the worst passing D in the league (274 YPG, 28 TDs)?

Also, do I stick with NE v. Car, GB @ Chi, or maybe make a switch to one of the following: NYG v. Philly, 49ers v. AZ, Titans v. St. Louis or WAS @ Oak?

Thanks to anyone willing to help.
When in doubt, punt!

Flacco and NE.

Don't overthink it. These are very good starts.

He is right, you shouldnt overthink it.....but I dont think those are necessarily the right calls.

For one, Pats D has looked absolutely awful for weeks now, I wouldnt risk my playoffs on those guys, they havent proven anything to me except dissapointment. I would start GB in a must win game against division rival CHI.....GB Def has been on a tear, and Id feel even more confident after watching them demolish the Ravens last night, and after watching how terrible CHI offense has been.... there is no way Cutler doesnt throw AT LEAST 2 picks in that game. If it tells you anything, Im sitting EVERY CHI player I have in that game, and starting every GB player I have.

As for the QB.....hmmm, I think you have to start Flacco honestly, but if you wanted to roll the dice on a high risk, high reward game, then I say Alex Smith vs ARI is what you want.....SF threw the ball 29 times, and ran 4 times in the first half this past wkd.....and that ARI/SF game could be a really high scoring shootout with both teams needing to win.

Good luck!
