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

      That is the natural course for regulations. First to protect the consumer. Then to protect the business/industry from upstart competition. There are countless examples across history.

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
