I have to choose between RG3 vs. the Eagles and Eli vs. the Rams for the finals in my 2QB league. I'm gonna go with RG3. =_=

The real question is whether or not I wanna keep rolling the dice on Gordon vs. the Panthers or just go with Edelmann vs. the Jets. :|

I'd go with Gordon and would probably play Eli.

I'd so go with Eli, at least you have a ~50% of him not being bad. RG3 is always going to be bad

Yeah there's a chance RG3 doesn't make it through the game. You can't play that.

I definitely do not trust Eli against any competent defenses. :| Rather bank on RG3 scoring two TDs one way or another against a team that may possibly score a lot and is bad against the pass.

Eli could just spend the entire game lobbing the ball to Beckham and do better than RG3 will.

In the second half of the year Eli has put up miserable points against competent defenses. I am not going to play him against the Rams who may quite possibly murder him. RG3 has the upside here.

I hope RG3 goes out on the first play just to spite you for ignoring us.

I'd even wager TL+ that Eli outperforms him this week.

I am down for that. One month of TL+?

I'm guaranteed second place which means I'm winning at least 300 anyway. nbd.

To me, this is getting to cute. There's flags everywhere that RG3 could either get hurt or be pulled at any point. You can't play that guy. ODB is so good, if Manning has half of a brain, which I think he does, he'll target him 20 times for 300 yards and 2 TDs. Take the guaranteed playing time.

As someone who has been playing Eli throughout the entire year, it doesn't matter if ODB is there, Eli recently just doesn't perform against good defenses. He couldn't do shit against the Jags, the 9ers, nor the Seahawks, and ODB was there for all those matches. I don't expect him to do anything against the Rams, who certainly have a better defense than the Jags and possibly the 9ers. Eli manning is not a stud. Period.

I am much better off risking it with RG3, hoping he'll give me at least 12 points against a high-scoring team with a porous pass D, instead of Eli who will be hard pressed to score even 10 points against a D line that will smother the shit out of him, no questions asked.

I suppose we'll agree to disagree.

On the topic of oft injured, early drafted QBs, do the Rams re-sign Sam Bradford?

not unless he takes a huge paycut.
he has one year left on his contract right?

Yes, 16.5M on the cap next year and 3.5M in dead money if they cut him.

Yes one month. I've gifted it several times already, I'm good for it.
