You starting Rodgers this week??

Postby Detroitcity » Thu Dec 14, 2017 9:32 am

I have Rodgers in 2 leagues and for some reason if he ends up playing this week I’m having a hard time talking myself into starting him. Between coming off the injury, playing a solid CAR defense, and being on the road he makes me a little nervous for a week 15 semi final.

The 2 leagues I own him in I would be starting Brady or Rivers, so that obviously plays into it too

Who is starting Rodgers? And if you are is it because you have trash behind him or you truly believe in him this week

Not entirely sure yet.

In one league I'm leaning against starting him where I have Big Ben and Cam.

Of course! It's not like he's some journeyman or unknown backup. I also don't have any other options that would be clearly better.

Probably starting him. I have Cousins as my backup option, who concerns me given the state of that team right now.

my big redraft I am starting Rivers over ARod. Too many weeks off and CAR D is pretty solid.
I expect he will be good still but all it takes is a few less than super-sharp moments against a solid D to ruin a fantasy score. Would still pick GB to win the game...just not comfy starting him over Rivers who is playing well

I have to start two of Rodgers, Alex Smith and Mariota. I don't think I have a choice but to start him and hope for the best.

I'm starting either Rodgers or Hundley. I just hope Rodgers doesn't start and then get pulled early.

As a Packers fan who has been watching Rodgers for years.... Start him. The only guy that I would start over him at this stage is Roethlisburger, because he is completely on fire. Carolina has a phenomenal D, but Aaron Rodgers.... Is Aaron Rodgers..

His floor is high regardless of who he is playing..He is good for 2 TD's minimum.

Lol, I'm not sure if you're actually considering starting Hundley, but if you're being serious, I'm heavily advising against it. Obviously there is always a chance for re-injury, but if Rogers starts, gotta start him over Hundley.

I don't own him, but I'm not sure there are more than a handful of QBs I'd start over him. Unless your other options are top 5 QBs, you have start him (and even then I might start him over the top 5 QBs).

I would start Brady over him. After that, there are some maybes: Brees, Russ, Big Ben, Dak, and Rivers. I would not start Cam over him but can't blame someone if they did...

Brees & Smith v Rodgers .... Really unsure. Also have Jordy on the bench in two other league's ... So do I go all in or just hedge with starting Rodgers and not Jordy or Jordy and not Rodgers ??
99 problems but your 10 team league ain't one!
