Should I start Tom Brady or Jon Kitna today?

I have Kitna, and his 5 game run has been really great! Last week was just sick for fantasy purposes.

Thanks, Jared. I did go with Kitna this week but through halftime, it doesn't look like I would have been wrong either way.

Glad I picked him up ... my big stud going into the season was Gannon and he did nothing for me. Fortunately, Brady & Kitna were on waivers at various times.

I would go with Brady...that Ravens defense WILL NOT let him score points like he has been. Miami is pron to give up big plays!

I was actually referring to yesterday's game, although it was just a few minutes before kickoff. But I think your feedback will be used for this week's games.

I thought someone would do that Bret Favre "Monday Morning Quarterback" commercial on me ... and say they would have played Kitna.

This happened to me. I dropped Gannon, moved Plummer to starter, and he played well then got injured, and the only starter left was Kitna in my league. A lot of people laughed, but then they shut up. Two REALLY good weeks in a row from him. Next week I am torn. I have Plummer and Kitna. Plummer is at home, but Kitna has been playing better. I wish I had gotten my first two choices in the draft (McNair and I wanted Hassleback on a hunch, and I was right).

So can anyone help me out?

This will all sound so stupid one week from now, but hear me out.

I would hesitate to play Plummer against KC, not because I think he'll have a bad game. On the contrary, I think Denver will truly focus in on the running game and not leave Plummer with a lot of opportunities.

Of course on the other hand, skeptics think the Chiefs' defense is ripe for the pickins and Plummer did play well against the Chiefs the first time; and there's a chance the Chiefs' game will be a track meet and you'd hate to have Plummer sitting that one out.

I really starting to get high on Kitna, which usually means Fantasy Flameout. I'm going to play Kitna again this weekend, so I think that guarantees he'll be a poor pick.

Other than that .... flip a coin.

Well...if the Chiefs are going to stop that denver running game.....then Plummer is forced to throw and we'll see if he can get the game going. He has thrown a TD pass in all of his games he played.

He didn't throw a TD in the first game against the Bengals. It was easily his worst game as a Bronco.
