Have to decide which QB to start this week:

Favre at Minnesota

or

Palmer vs. Pittsburgh

I'm inclined to go with Favre because I have Donald Driver and can try to double dip. Completely disregarding that part, though, does anyone have any thoughts on what Palmer might do against the Steelers?

Pittsburgh's D is way better than Minnesota's. Palmer is a good QB but I think in this game Favre will have better numbers.

True, but Favre has had that dome thing that has followed him/haunted him for years; and I could see Palmer having a huge breakout against Pittsburgh, despite the Steelers defense (they're good, but they're not impenetrable -- the Patriots have generally been able to score points against Pittsburgh).

This is the argument I've been having with myself all week.

Good points. I would recommend going with your first instinct.

Good luck.

Palmer all the way


Favre absolutley sucks in domes, now woth this being said he will have 400+ passing yards and 5 TDs.


Id go with Palmer.

I hope Palmer has a huge game, I have him in most leagues.

Do not sit Palmer. Palmer is the hottest QB in the league right now, he is a must start every single week.

Anyone who responded after 7PM CST was too late. That's when the rescheduled Miami/KC game kicked off.

True. But I appreciate the views. Thanks, all!

I went with Favre, but will probably be okay if he is outplayed by Palmer, since Priest got me 21 points last night.

It doesn't matter if the Dolphins/Chiefs game played, you can still move around people. I don't know what your playing your fantasy sports from but I have Yahoo & CBS Sportline and I can still move people around, just not the ones who played Friday.

Interesting. My league locks your roster after the first game of the week kicks off.

Hope it works out for you, bro.

Looks like Favre was the better choice. He outscored Palmer in our format 24-11 and hooked up with Driver for a TD, which allowed me to double-dip.

Whew!

Palmer didn't do much
