FutureBillsGM Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 So my QBs are Mike Vick (bye), Kevin Kolb (Pittsburgh), and Carson Palmer (KC) who I picked up this week due to severe QB issues in the league. With Vick out and Palmer probably not going to play, I need to find someone to start this week. Kolb against Pittsburgh is not to my liking so I am going to drop him and pick someone up which leads back to the severe lack of QBs available in my league. Here are my options: Colt McCoy vs. Seattle Tavaris Jackson vs. Cleveland Curtis Painter vs. New Orleans Blaine Gabbert vs. Baltimore John Beck vs. Carolina I am thinking McCoy has the best matchup and numbers YTD but Painter could put up a lot of yards playing from behind against a high powered NO offense and Beck gets his first start against a Carolina team that likes to move the ball as well. What are your opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phlegm Alley Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 I read that Carson was going to start this Sunday. If you decide to go in a different direction, I would go with Colt McCoy. Seattle has given up 268 yards on average passing this year, and Marcus Trufant is out for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your opinions? Palmer is going to play, but that's a risky play. Palmer in 3 weeks coming off of a bye is a good play, but coming off 3 days practice is tough. McCoy has a nice matchup, but he's been disappointing all year. Painter has been putting up really good numbers this year. And NO is really tough against the run, so they will be throwing a lot. I would be leaning towards Painter, with McCoy a close second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
