nhmtns Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Don't you understand that providing me with fantasy points is waaay more important than winning your games? I know your team is now 4-0, but my backup, Roethlisberger, has now outscored you 46 to 11 in the past two weeks! I really wanted to start big Ben, but everyone said that would be crazy. Well, next week YOU'RE ON THE BENCH!!! (for your bye week) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTSuper7 Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Despite Brees' success this year, benching him for Big Ben based on matchups wouldn't have been that crazy. The Jets' defense is for real and has completely limited the likes of Matt Schaub and Tom Brady this year so far. Of course, hindsight is 20/20, but I benched Colston in favor of Mewelde Moore thinking the coaches would get gun shy on Mendenhall's fumbling problems. I lucked out with the two TDs, but a normal Moore night would have netted me what Colston did anyway. Considering the year Big Ben is having, I don't think it would have been too crazy of a move (a bit risky, but it's not like you were planning on starting someone like Kyle Orton or Carson Palmer instead).

Medal of Honor Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I have Orton. You better believe I considered starting Orton over Brees this week. Didn't do it cause I was told that was crazy. I benched 18 points that I needed to win my game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
