Who to start week 1

[PokerKingJim]

Derek Anderson hosting Dallas or Kurt Warner @ San Fran

Also need to start 1 of the following 3 RB's. Edge James @ SF, Brandon Jacobs vs Was, or Matt Forte @ Indy.

What do you guys think?

Derek Anderson. Dallas will put up plenty of points and I feel Cleveland will throw a lot to keep pace.

I would start Brandon Jacobs out of those three.

 

[JakeT.]

Anderson by a mile. Dallas will score at will and Anderson will pass to try to catch up. It's the only reason he scored as many points as he did last year. Look for Anderson to do most of his work in the 4th quarter after starting out slowly.

PS, Jacobs.

Those career numbers are worthless in this case. Many of those numbers were from when he was with the Rams who were an incredible offense compared to the Cards' current one. Also, defensive schemes and personnel have switched on the Niners as well. Just don't think those numbers should be a deciding factor.

warners last game vs san fran nov25 2007

qb rating 99.7%

34-48 484yards 2tds 2ints

not bad for fantasy footabll stats.....

 

[HarryCaray]

You make a pretty good case for Warner.

Damnit, now I am wondering if I should start him over McNabb...

 

[JakeT.]

Warner's game last year didn't have Jared Allen pressuring the QB which is going to make the Niners' defense a completely different unit. That defense is improved quite a bit and the offense is getting better so the D won't have to constantly defend a short field.
