Ok, I have Culpepper. Normally he'd be an easy #1 QB start. But lately, well...

So I have Culpepper agaisnt NO this weekend but also have Carson Palmer against Chicago. Now, Palmer is having a good year and by comparison blowing Culpepper out of the water. But, the Bears had a killer game last week (are they really that good?) and NO is well NO...

I can't decide!!! Who would you start?

PS - It isn't for the Neowin league, so I not cheating... ;)

Palmer.

The Bengals offense this season at least allows Palmer to not have to make every play, unlike Minnesota. The Bengals have a good running game with Rudi Johnson and they have more playmakers at receiver. Culpepper really got screwed when Randy Moss left. Regardless of what people say, Nate Burelson isn't a viable replacement.

And no, the Bears aren't that good. The Lions are that bad.

What he said lol. That was pretty much a perfect analysis IMO. Plus I think NO will be ****ed after how badly they played against my Giants. I'd go with Palmer until Daunte proves that he can still be a high-caliber QB.

Playing against the Cleveland Brown and Green Bay Packer Defense, keep in mind.

Cleveland and Minny wasn't it? Not that that really says much more for him lol :rofl: but I'd still go with the hot hand this week. Plus since he's my fantasy QB I have to hope he stays hot and believe he will. He's carried my fantasy team so far lol.

i got NO DEF because they are playing Int Culpepper

and can someone help me. i have to start 3 WR which one's

C. Johnson cin @Chi*(a go to guy and will have at less 10 rec.)

A. Boldin ari @Sea*(im kind ifiey with warrner sea d might give him a hard time)

J. Horn NO @min*(been playing great he is going to play this season with NO on his mind and i dont see him slowing down in this game)

A. Randle El pit vs NE

i think big ben will have problums with NE but randle El can brake a 5 yd to 60 and could have big day if big ben can get time but i dont see that happening and pit will run it crazy(but i can see them having to pass because they will run left to right and NE has a fast defence.)

*who i have pick to start

Wow I wish I had your luxery. Definately go with Palmer. I have Culpepper too, but by backup is Bledsoe. I'm actually chancing it and going with Bledsoe this weekend against the 49ers over Culpepper against NO.

Culpepper is on my bench until he at least has a good game and even that will have to be impressive for him to earn his spot back. Beside Javon Walker (injured) biggest bust of the season so far. And unfortunately I got stuck with him and little else at QB.

I would start Palmer. Keep in mind that the Chicago defense is good...but Carson isnt Joey Harrington bad.

Another reason to bench Daunte, Nate Burleson is doubtful because of an injury sustained in the Bengals game. No target for Daunte...

Well, they both had great games this week, Culpepper hit for 300 though :laugh:

Oh well, who did you end up playing?

Yeah I guess Daunte was the pick. Wouldn't have been in bad shape with Palmer either but he only had 169 yards to Culpepper's 300.

Well, I started Palmer and although Culpepper brought in more points the difference was only about 4pts.  I knew this would happen!  Right know it looks like I may lose by about that much as well... Dang it!  :angry:

OUCH! That sucks if you lose by the difference. Sorry for going with the wrong guy then man.

Antonio Gates and Kaeding (sp)? for SD had a great night so know I am up by enough to win. Either way, I am sure Murphy would make a rule about this had he played Fantasy Football. ;)

Shoulda listened.  :p

      Good point Anti-spoofing protection for cloud mailboxes Anti-spoofing technology in Microsoft 365 specifically examines forgery of the From header field (also known as the 5322.From address, From address, or P2 sender), because email clients show the From header value as the message sender. When Microsoft 365 has high confidence the From header is forged, the message is identified as spoofed. https://learn.microsoft.com/en...g-protection-spoofing-about
    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      By Nick H. · Posted

      I sort of agree with you on that. I had a telescope - a real hefty thing, although only around 500CHF - that got me so fascinated about the stars and planets. I would stare for hours, amazed that I could see the craters of the moon or the rings of Saturn in "realtime" (quotations because, y'know, speed of light and whatnot). A friend of mine has a telescope like the one mentioned in the review, and the pictures are amazing to look at. But there is something missing for me. I may as well just go to NASA's website and look through their gallery.
    • Halo: Campaign Evolved is out next month with new prequel missions

      As opposed to catching bad press because it's the engine's fault? The engine has all the tools a dev needs to optimize their game, Epic isn't gonna hold their hand to make sure they use them. Also, Epic isn't forcing anyone to use Lumen, Nanite or super high resolution meshes and textures. Just because Nanite can render meshes with millions of polygons doesn't mean you should use it like that, in fact, Epic recommends you avoid doing that. Most of the stuttering can easily be fixed by cutting down on unique materials by using master materials, using instanced meshes or combining meshes, generating a thorough PSO cache to allow shader pre-compilation and also managing what must be loaded and unloaded at runtime. It's up to the developer to set all that up properly and no the engine can't do all that for you that's not how any of this works.
