Week 2 - Need a QB

Recommended Posts

Well, I have no confidence with Jake Delhomme this week. It appears Steve Smith is going to sit again. Delhomme looked clueless last week and I expect more of the same this week.

 

Scoring System

30 passing = 1 point

10 rushing = 1 point

All TD's = 6 points

INT = (-2) points

 

QB - Need 1

Jake Delhomme (at MIN)

Byron Leftwich (vs PIT) - Don't like the matchup

Steve McNair (vs OAK) - Will he even need to pass?

 

Also available on the free agent list. . .

 

Alex Smith (vs SF)

Brad Johnson (vs CAR)

David Carr (at IND)

Philip Rivers (vs TEN)

Charlie Frye (at CIN)

Jon Kitna (at CHI)

Chris Simms (at ATL)

Rex Grossman (vs DET)

Kerry Collins (at SD)

 

I was leaning towards starting Steve McNair, but now wavering towards picking up Alex Smith.

 

Thoughts?

I agree with your instincts on bad weeks for Delhomie, Lefty and MacDowell's (our buns HAVE NO seasame seeds)

 

I'd encourage you to roll the dice on Rivers vs. a weak TEN matchup.

 

You might even look at Brad Johnson.

 

This advice is for this week ONLY! Very weird QB week for you...

I thought about Rivers, but I don't believe he's going to need to pass much (yet again). Last week, he threw 11 passes against Oakland. I'm sure LT is going to run buckwild on Tennessee.

 

Brad Johnson never puts up big stats, so he would be comparable to starting McNair... I think.

 

I'm still leaning towards Alex Smith.

 

Definitely a weird QB week for me. Though, having a healthy Steve Smith in the lineup would've made it easier.

 

PS: Great movie quote... one of the best comedies in my lifetime. :o

Safe play - McNair

Yeah, they're gonna run all over Oakland, but he'll get his numbers in too.

 

Interesting plays - Smith and Rivers

Either could have a nice coming out party this week, but are likely to make mistakes too.

 

I'd say McNair. They'll have the ball all game long. So many chances for a little crossing pattern to break big...

 

 

 

 

thanks for mine

It's much too early to grab A.Smith. Vernon Davis aside, the 49ers lack in the pass catching department. We can't overlook the fact that it's the beginning of season 2 for Smith. Brad is tempting. He knows the offense and has a wr in Williamson that will have a break out year. That said, I don't see him putting up stellar numbers. McNair should put up similar stats this weekend. Skip the wire this week.

I love Smith's game vs STL...I think it's going to be a shootout....JMO
