Fantasy QB question
 

R. Grossman or P. Manning

Grossman sucks but he's up against Green Bay's defense, even if it is at Green Bay. And Manning surely won't play the whole game. Is P. Manning likely to do more in a half than Grossman in a whole game? Thoughts?

It's too early to decide these kinds of questions. As a genereal rule, wait until Thursday/Friday practices.

At this point, I'd side with Manning.

Yeah, but I got Christmas shopping to do. Thanks for the input. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I actually just read that he's got swelling in his knee. I would be sure to monitor his health in the coming days.

Dungy has already said that Sorgi will see significant time.

Yeesh...not an enviable position. I guess if Peyton's 100% by Thursday, then start him. Either QB could get pulled in the middle of the game if something's not going right. GL

I don't really see how this is close. There is way too much guesswork involved to play any Colts' players. Manning plays 1-2 series at worst or 1-2 quarters at best.

Re: Fantasy QB question
 

OP-

There may also be a QB on waivers who's even better for this week.

Huh? Peyton is definitely 100% healthy.

Grossman against the hapless Packers is probably a safer play. Did you see how the Packers made Boller look liek an All-Pro last night?

Re: Fantasy QB question
 

I agree with an earlier poster, there may be a better option on the waiver wire. List who is available there. Both are great risks for different reasons. Peyton will not play the whole game and probably will not do much passing while he's in the game. There is just no reason for it.

Rex on the other hand is up against a very shaky defense, but it will be FREEZING in GB and I imagine there will be a lot of Thomas Jones involved in this game. Grossman will put up decent numbers, maybe 120 and 1 TD possible, but look for a lot of TJ and Adrian Peterson in this game.

Look for who is starting for the Cardinals, Josh McCown may get the chance, but I would look for John Navarre if possible. With little to no running game I think they'll do a lot of passing, espeically since they are more than likely going to be behind in the game.

That's just my opinion

Thank you. And yes, after seeing GB's high school defense make Boller look like the second coming of Unitas, I think I've changed my mind. Start Grossman or check the free agents for someone better.
