jets145 0 Posted September 18, 2007 I have found myself guessing as to which QB to start the first two weeks of the season. I have two mediocre players whose matchups always seem to be similar. Let me know what you think: Vince Young @ NO (Monday Night against a weak New Orleans defense, who gave up a considerable amount of points to Tampa Bay last week.) or Matt Hasselbeck vs CIN (Is he a must start after the 51 points Cincinnati gave up to Cleveland? He hasn't proved much so far, even losing a costly fumble which may have cost Seattle the game.) I'm not sure. This may all be because I want the thrill of watching an exciting player on the big stage Monday night, but he does have a favorable matchup. But do you think Hasselbeck has an even more favorable matchup? Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Make sure to leave your link and I will respond to yours. Thanks in advance!

Beef Ravioli 0 Posted September 18, 2007 Well neither defense is any good, but I think I would vote for Hasslebeck. Cincinati's defense looks like jr high, so you got to think there are a couple of TD passes. thanks for mine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bbleehehh9 0 Posted September 18, 2007 after Derek Anderson lit up that cincinatti secondary like a christmas tree, I would definately go with Hasselbeck this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doriantodd 0 Posted September 18, 2007 very interesting choice. Hasselbeck will likely have better QB stats, but have to expect Marvin Lewis will not let his D be as terrible 2 weeks in a row. Young on the other hand is a backstage winner and will likely run for a couple scores and throw for 1 or 2. I'd say Young.

electricrelish 0 Posted September 18, 2007 Hasselback all the way against that defense! You never know what V. Young will do. Please see mine: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#1LionFan 0 Posted September 19, 2007 Personally, I would never bench Hasselbeck for Young. Young is not a good fantasy QB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PDP427 0 Posted September 19, 2007 that's a tough call... I'd probably lean on Hassleback. I look for New Orleans to step it up this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BostonPatriots 0 Posted September 19, 2007 I would start Hass. He is against the Cincy D. There defense stats were a little high after week one, because they were playing Baltimore which doesn't have the best offense and two of the fumbles they recovered is because McNair and McGahee forgot how to do the exchange and had nothing to do with Cincy's D. Help with mine, thanks My Question Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mec411 0 Posted September 19, 2007 no way that cincy gives up as many points to sea that they gave up to cle. take vince young, center stage on monday night and watch him shine! see mine: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=288590 While I do think Cincy may still give up a lot of points, i do like his advice on watching Vince Monday night. That is partyl why I took him late, he is so much fun to watch. I would probably start hassle depending on league scoring, so its really up to your method of madness (i think vince will run one in) and your league...good luck, see mine, thanks in advance.. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...=0#entry3303238 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gelucy44 0 Posted September 19, 2007 Yeah I agree watching Young play on Monday would be a nice way to round out your fantasy week, but lets be serious, go with Hasselbeck. http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=288772 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuperSteelers 1 Posted September 19, 2007 I am going to say Young. He is a nice offensive line right now and a RBBC that seems to be gaining the yards as needed. Both team IMO are somewhat weak at the receiver position. He will be playing a somewhat tougher defense, but this game has a chance to be a shootout. The TAINTS are pissed about losing two straight! http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...howtopic=288775 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Blue 06 195 Posted September 19, 2007 Go with Hasselbeck. If he only gets half of what Derek Anderson did, it's still a big fantasy game. Please see mine: Visit My Website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
