    I'm with Moes with the exception of Cutler. I'd go Stafford. You spent a 2nd round pick on him. Roll with him.

    Thinking about picking up the Pats against AZ.

    Anyone have objections or think I should go with maybe an Oakland vs. Miami or something. I currently have GB D and have a feeling it may turn into a shootout against da Bears.

    I like Cutler this year with his safety blanket back and new toy Alshon Jeffery.

    Plus look at the numbers the Niners D just held Rodgers to at home.

    Olsen, Cook, Fleener, Rudolph. Which one is gonna become a top 8 TE? Olsen and Fleener got a ton of looks. Witten and Gonzales - do they have better years than the best guy in the sleeper group?

    Belichick actually was double covering Cook after he burned them for an early big gain. I still think he's got the most talent, but his QB play is the shakiest.

    Same with Rudolph, I think he's got all the makings but he and Ponder may need another year together before he has real fantasy relevance.

    Olsen always was supposed to be the next guy to break out, but still hasn't.

    Fleener seems to have an advantage just because of Luck's comfort level with him.

    Tamme is gonna be the guy isn't he. A guy I've always loved (he saved me one year when Clark went out) and knew I should have snagged across the board. Sigh. What about Bennett? He's talented, he blocks well too so he's an every-down TE, and I was hoping he'd become the new WR3 in their scheme.

    I had Bennett ranked as one of my deep league backup TE sleepers this year.

    Tamme is a guy a lot of people wanted to reach for, but he'll probably end up with only borderline TE1 numbers.

    Colston is better in that format.

    Week 1 can be a complete aberration in some cases, or set the tone for the season in others.

    At this point I'd stick with Ridley until Richardson proves he's elite or Ridley puts it on the ground and gets benched.

    Cutler @ GB

    and

    SF D/ST vs. DET

    or

    NE vs. ARI

    Believe it or not, I like Cutler over Stafford. Niners D quite underrated. New England certainly seems to have a better chance vs. Kevin Kolb.

    Stafford is gonna outperform Cutler. Stafford will have to pass. Meet y'all suckers back here next Sunday for praise.

    The matchup though... is it really worth the risk to start Stafford. Cutler has weapons for days now and Alex Smith look good against that GB secondary.

    I know this.. but c'mon.. these sayings are cliche.

    Stafford can have a bad game. He just had one at home vs STL. 12 points...

    49ers Sunday night, Lions traveling west coast... idk..

    I had this problem last year with Rivers and Stafford. Everyone kept saying go with Rivers early on he's the stud. Stafford is unproven. Nobody changed their minds until week 6 or 7.

    If you feel strongly about the match up, by all means go with Cutler.
