Should I start Derek Anderson who plays the patriots this week or should I start Philip Rivers vs the Broncos who got the #1 rated pass defense. Anderson has been playing better than Rivers has but he does play a tough Pats defense. On the other hand, Rivers hasn’t done much for me and he does play the best pass defense in the NFL. Who should I go with?
im sorry but ur screwed this week
you’ll probably have a better chance with Rivers.
Even Peyton Manning would stuggle against the super defence of the Pats, I’d start Philip Rivers. The Chargers have to turn it around sometime.
Anderson has a better chance of getting something done. They get the occasional big play down field and their running game isn’t much with a washed up Lewis
If Rivers has another off-day then they can and will anyway, turn to LT
I am starting Anderson this week.He is going to be playing catch-up all game so I am looking for some big yards(300+).
Ouch.
I mean, Carson Palmer only had one TD last week. Derek Anderson is nothing special, and they are going to be all over him.
Rivers has to try to work against Bailey and Bly, and Denver is much weaker against the run. LT might have better luck passing than Rivers.
I guess I subscribe to the theory of “cosmetic points.” Late in the 4th quarter, in the Prevent-Defense, maybe Anderson can string something together against Pats.
I would rather see you go get Jason Campbell or David Garrard and try your luck that way.
But go Anderson, and maybe you’ll get lucky. It has been a weird season.
Yeah. That’s tough.. Do you have anybody on the bench that you can drop? Maybe even rent Chad Pennington, Dave Girrard or even Kurt Warner for this week.
If you can’t, I think your best chance is with Anderson. He will have to play catch up most of the game so he’ll have his chances to put up some respectable numbers.
