Chief Dick Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Currently I have Rivers and Leftwhich as my quarterbacks. Due to the status of Byron I am starting Rivers against KC. I know KC had a terrible day last week against the pass, but I can almost guarantee we will see a way better game from them defensively this week. I have the option of picking up Bledsoe on waivers, and he goes against the Giants this week. That game is in Dallas. The Giants pass D is ranked about in the middle of the pack, while KC's pass defense is ranked 4th. Add the motivation of the ass-kicking last week and I think KC is a nightmare for Rivers all day. Also, my opponent this week starts Owens, so I figure I can cancel him out at least with Bledsoe. Personally I see this as a coin flip, because I could see both putting up similar numbers. I just don't think Rivers will throw for more than 2 TD's against the Chiefs, and I think Beldsoe probably throws 2 against the Giants. Any thoughts?

Sharpie Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I shutter every time I think about playing Bledsoe because you just don't know if a stinker is coming. I'd watch the injury status for Lefty and put him in if you see him warming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddog59 Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I think Rivers is a solid start this week. The KC defense could spend a lot of time on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j4mz Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Rivers, do you really want to have to route for the other guys receiver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, but I also think they will really try to harass Rivers all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soco Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 I like Rivers if Lefty is out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
