Sit Em'/Start Em'- Quarterbacks

Three quarterbacks to start...

1) Eli Manning vs Cowboys- Manning has been amazing the last few times he's played the poor Dallas defense. Expect him to get some touchdowns as the backfield situation still isn't set yet (Brandon Jackson and Reuben Droughns).

2) Ben Roethlisburger- This year should be better for him, and what an easy way to start by playing the Cleveland Browns in the first game of the season. Expect some major yards from Roethlisburger and maybe a touchdown or two.

3) Brett Favre*- This could be a risky pick considering how many interception he throws, but I'm going to have to say start him if you need him as a second or third quarterback. We know for sure he's going to be throwing a lot because of the injuries in the backfield (Brandon Jackson probable with concussion, Vernand Morrency questionable with knee, Noah Herron out for season, etc). So expect Favre to throw 35-40 passes and he'll definitely get some yards with receivers Donald Driver, and rookie James Jones, although Greg Jennings is questionable.

Three quarterbacks to sit...

1) Jon Kitna- Kitna will be playing against the Oakland Raiders, who even though have the worst overall team in the league, they also have the best passing defense in the league. Kitna has also been complaining about a few injuries to his side so I would not start him this week.

2) Vince Young- Well I'm not going to start Young for a few reasons...
a) He's on the cover of Madden o8' and I believe in the Madden curse
b) Last season he only got a total of 135 passing yards and 9 rushing yards in two games against the Jacksonville Jaguar's defense.
c) He has no receivers.

3) J.P. Losman- I only have one reason not to start Losman... He's playing against the Denver defense who now have Dre Bly. Try passing with Champ Bailey and Dre Bly on the other side of the field...it's dangerous.
