Brees or Brady this week?


Recommended Posts

The big question for one of my fantasy teams is who do i start for QB this week?

Brees or Brady?

Brees is up against the Steelers this week, and Brady is up against Atlanta.

Also, SD killed NE last week.

On my team I also have McCardell (SD WR) and Dillon (NE RB).

Who would you pick?

Edit: I forgot to mention the team I am playing has the Atlanta defense.

BRady is a great QB in regular football, but not so much for fantasy. He seldom puts up big numbers, NE jsut simply wins but doesn't really blow anyone out. Also, the ATL defense is very good and the front four are some of the best in the league right now.

As a pit fan and a San diego native I know both teams realy well. This week i wouldnt take Brees. Even with the game here in San diego (wich im going to whoopie!). The Steelers D is just too tough and will probly beat up on the chargers pretty bad. Steelers pass rush is mean mean mean. I expect to see alot of runs from LT.

Right,...The reason I would go with Brees is because Atlanta's Defense is going to give Brady fits.

As much as I hate to say it i grabbed Eli up a few days before the game this past weekend and he blew up. The only reason I don't know who to play is because Eli has a bye week. He has much better fantasy stats than both Brees and Brady this year.

I will most likely go with Brees, but what is making the decision so tough is the fact NE got killed last week. Their offense will most likely come out pretty hard, as will the Steeler defense. After a loss then a bye week I just don't see the Steelers letting up much in terms of scoring or even yardage.

i think it's a toss up. neither guy is a huge fantasy scorer. brees will hand off to LT a lot. i think when the day is over, their numbers will be similar. but in this case, i would go with the hot hand, and that is brees. and i stood in line next to brees in college once too :)

I am such a nerd. I had a dream that I saw the stats for the two QB's on sportscenter last night, and I am posting it here to see if I should pay attention to my dreams in the future.

Brees...330 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT

Brady...100 yards 1 TD, 4 INT

While I sleep I still watch sportscenter. :laugh:

If this works, I should really see if I can find Nicolette Sheridan. *cough* um..nevermind that..*cough*

yeah, brady definitely bounced back in a big way.  it's hard to ever really go against brady, he's just so consistent.

True, but like Armeck said, Brady usually doesn't put up those kind of huge numbers. He'll win you the game but usually not light it up like he did today. I'm not complaining though. He's on one of my Neowin teams :yes:.

OMG! im a little late but how could you say that. Brady is a solid 40pts a week. He is the reason that i was the highest scoring person with no wins (LOL) untill this past week. you guys might want to stop thinking about what he might do and jsut watch him do what he does. HATERS Ewwwwwww.

BRADY for president.

He will go down as one of the best. :yes: i dare say it ONE OF THE BEST.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates by Paul Hill Microsoft has just announced that starting with Edge 152, it will be moving to a two-week release cycle for faster, smaller updates. This faster release cadence will begin on August 27. This change comes just several months after Microsoft switched Visual Studio Code to weekly updates. The company said that the Extended Stable releases will remain on an eight-week cycle and that no admin changes are needed to experience the faster release cycle on the Stable channel. The new two-week release cycle will enable the faster delivery of security updates and platform improvements, all while reducing the size and complexity of individual updates. Microsoft claims that organizations will benefit from this change as it offers predictable validation cycles. For organizations that prefer a “more deliberate pace”, the Extended Stable channel remains an option. This change will affect Edge Stable releases on Windows, macOS, Linux, and mobile. The Extended Stable channel will continue to be updated every eight weeks, or every fourth Stable release, for example: versions 152, 156, 160, and 164. The Extended Stable could be a good option for organizations that don’t want the latest updates twice a month and don’t want as much hassle constantly updating browsers. In the case of Visual Studio Code, many of the updates being pushed by Microsoft are AI-related. As we all know, Microsoft Edge has a lot of AI features, so we could see Microsoft pushing more AI, thanks to the faster cycles. On the flip side, quicker releases could mean faster security updates, which is beneficial in a world where AI systems are hunting for software exploits. What do you think? Let us know in the comments. For more updates on Edge, be sure to follow Neowin's coverage. In May alone, we reported on Edge offering in-browser pop-ups to assist users with website compatibility issues, that Edge was losing Copilot Mode, and that Microsoft had fixed a plain-text password bug in Edge.

    • not yet, because at the moment it is not a threat to MS, if and I mean if it did become a threat to MS Office, then it may be a different thing. MS don't like competition
