krad Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hmm....Simms against the hapless 49'ers, or Holcomb against an injury riddled NE D? My only concern is that TB might just run all day. At least NE will put up some points and force Buffalo to try and score. Might play it safe and go with Simms. The stats say NE D isn't good, see http://www.thehuddle.com/x5/season/08www.php but I hate to underestimate them. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

luke davenport Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Simms. Even good Buffalo QBs have not fared well in New Engalnd during the Pats' SuperBowl years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Football Fever Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I would say Simms also. NE coming off a bye and two weeks to prepare for Buf. Also two weeks to fix what they were doing wrong. SF just plain old stinks. They could have a month and they still could beat anyone. Plus TB is coming off a bye week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehype Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Neither But if you have to start one, I'd go with Simms. San Fran sucks. They almost look worst than the Bengals ever did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swashbucklers Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Asked this same question earlier. The responses were all in favor of Simms. Main reason being that NE will be pissed after losing before their bye and will have an extra week to get ready. It would be nice to see more opinions. I am leaning towards Simms. Need points this week and feel that Simms has a better upside for more points, especially if Caddy is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need points this week and feel that Simms has a better upside for more points, especially if Caddy is limited. 1100173[/snapback] I don't see how Simms can fail, barring injury. I wish more tier 2 and 3 QBs had a history going against SF this season, which would give us a better indication of what to expect. However, 200+ yards and 2 TDs is a decent estimate. Because if Pittman is the featured back he'll reel in more receiving yards than Williams, which will pad Simms' stats. I like Holcomb's chances this week, too. But his supporting cast - especially the Bill's DEF - aren't as helpful as what the Bucs bring to the table in support of Simms. The Bucs should be turning the ball over all day long, and forcing a lot of punts, which will simply give Simms more offensive series and opportunities to produce. Though, I'd bet if you gave Simms and Holcomb and equal number of series this week Holcomb would be the better performer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
