mentobe24 Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) Do start Pennington against a weak Lions Pass Defense... Or Matt Leinart against the Raiders?? Edited October 18, 2006 by mentobe24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockerbraves Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Do start Pennington against a weak Lions Pass Defense... Or Matt Leinart against the Raiders?? I have to give Pennington the start till Leinart proves his worth a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchener Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I think Leinart already has proven himself. He's a poor man's Manning -- he's going to throw, throw, throw, and he's got a talented bunch of guys to catch, catch, catch. And, he's playing Oakland this week. You might get 250 yards and two scores out of Pennington, probably no more. You could get 350 yards and 4 scores out of Leinart this week... I have to give Pennington the start till Leinart proves his worth a bit more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Holliday Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I would go with Pennington as he has the better matchup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mentobe24 Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 any other input?? You guys seem split but I personally was leaning towards Leinart....but then again, maybe they wont have to pass the ball much as they should be up the whole game...the Lions could give the Jets a challenge... Well who knows... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingoes Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Leinart put up 250 yds and 2 tds vs. the Bears, so he should do well against Oakland. Oakland has the #30 ranked run defense in YPG, so teams haven't had to throw as much against them. Edge should get some better numbers and that should keep the pressure off Leinart. Remember, despite its porous run D, Oakland has allowed 4 tds by ground vs. 8 by air, so I look for AZ to put it up in the air in the Red Zone to score. Besides, Denny wants more scoring following the debacle last Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bent1969 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 leinart, you saw what happened to arizona when they went conservative. passing in the 1st half up 20-3 running the 2nd half lost 24-23. i think they will throw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makavelli005 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I'm having the same situation with my starters in my secondary league. I think i'm going with Leinart over Bledsoe in my situation. I agree that you should start Leinart also, my reasoning is simple: he played well against Chicago. This is Oakland we are talking about, and the Cards are desperate for a win. I see good things for the Cards this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
