I'm starting Schaub over rivers if that helps
Who do I start at QB this week? Brees screwed me over last week. Texans have an easier matchup and should get some passing TD's.![]()
You've got to be absolutely freaking kidding me. Brees is 100 times the fantasy QB that Schaub is.
Well last week Brees got me 5 points and Schaub had 20+. I lost by 3 points. Gonna stick with Brees...hope the Jets stop the run and Saints gotta throw it![]()
If you did anything else, you'd deserve a smack in the face.
Brees are playing the Jets defense, Schaub is playing the Raiders you have to take that into account
Doesn't matter...Brees>>>>>>>>>Schaub
It does matter with the teams they are playing.
ok...it's official..Fillmoe says start Schaub..you need to start Drew.
I know in all actuality it does matter, but Drew's fantasy abilities, even against NY are better than Schaub's against Oakland. Especially after a below standards game last week. Drew will bounce back.
Always start your best players. How many times is Schaub actually going to outpoint Brees during the year? I think we've seen the one time. Trying to divine when an inferior player might outperform a stud is like trying to time the stock market. More often than not, it's going to cost you.
my point exactly..thank you.
I think Schaub is the better play. Although Brees is the better QB and better long-term fantasy play, if you look at the match ups I think you will get more points from Schaub. The Raiders are a terrible team outside of Asomugha. He will shut down Andre Johnson but that will leave Kevin Walters and Owen Daniels to benefit from this. As bad as people think the Texans are, they are an excellent offensive team and can score points. His only poor showing was against the Jets.
You must also take into consideration what the Jets have been able to do. They held Brady to almost zero production. The Pats only scored 9 points on that. They have a top 5 defense so far this season.
If you look at the side by side Drew Brees has thrown for 841 yards this season and averages 280 yards/game with 9 TDs and 2 INTs. Matt Schaub has thrown for 823 yards this season averages 274 yards/game with 7 TDs and 2 INTs. They aren't too far off as far as stats go. I think it would be smart to take the matchup into consideration and Schaub has the better match up this week.
Brees. Schaub wont be able to get Johnson the ball more than 3 times with Asomugha on him.
Seriously though..you never start your inferior players. Brees had a bad game last week and will be looking to make up for it.
I don't know why...but this is the first thing I thought of when I saw this thread.
You act like Schaub is Vince Young or something.
Brees is the better player but they are both good QB's. Saying you always start the better player is being pretty shortsighted if your other QB is also pretty good and will be playing an inferior defense. I would normally go with Brees but I will take Schaub in this particular match up.
LMAO, leave it to a texan homer to equate Shaub with Brees.
Dumbass.
Oh..no..Schaub is a good QB...he's just not Brees. I have a feeling Brees is going to be angry about his last performance and take apart the Jets defense. Just my opinion.
