What QB should I play?


I'm in the playoffs and Culpepper is my starter and the Vikings are at Detroit. My other QB is Griese and the Bucs are at home against the Saints. My gut feeling says to start Griese against the week Saints defense. Who should I start?

Are you guys nuts...

How can you bench Culpepper?

Who is going with Brees over what QB?

I actually have Brees and Hasselbeck, but apparently, Brees could be playing in chilly wind and snow weather...not good for throwing.

Definitely start Culpepper.... Randy Moss is gradually getting back to full-strength...and you also cant overlook that Culpepper is a better "scrambler" than Griese (which gives him an added dimension)....

I think I am going with Griese because Dante has only one game in which he thrown over 300 yards against the Lions. He has not done well against them.

DON'T BENCH DAUNTE!!!!

I had a similar dilemna earlier in the year, with David Carr instead of Griese. I went with Carr, Culpepper threw for 4 TD's and 400 yards, and I lost my game because of it.

The rule of thumb is you never bench your star players. I didn't follow the rule, and I got burned...Be careful.

I switched back to Culpepper with 15 minutes before the game started. I read this board and thought he got me this far, I should stay with him. Thankfully I did because I won by 7 points to make it to the championship game.
