Wk 17 Championship Help! WHIR!

So, I've got a problem with my Chargers. Philip Rivers will likely be benched by the 3rd quarter and Antonio Gates even earlier. So do I sit Rivers (even though they're playing WAS) and play Flacco since the Ravens are playing for the playoffs? Or do you think Rivers will do enough damage before he's benched to still warrant a start? Also, if I sat Gates, my best alternative would be picking up Tony Scheffler of DEN (v. KC).

Also Mike Bell is projected to put up big numbers since NO will likely bench Thomas and limit Bush, should I put him in for any of my current starters (T. Jones v CIN, Mendenhall v. MIA, Holmes v MIA, R. Moss v HOU, or Smith (NYG) v. MIN)?

Thanks for the help ... WHIR!

I'd bench Rivers. I don't see him playing more than a couple of series. I also wouldn't start Bell over any of the guys you have in your lineup. Good luck.

Help with mine if you got a minute?

Agree play Flacco...I'd leave Gates in..even if he doesn't play much he has more upside then Schefler. Do not replace Bell for any of your current plugged in players. NO has nothing to play for...I have a feeling Bell won't even see that much action.

good luck
