I actually managed to squeek into the playoffs in another league. Should I stick with McNabb in my line-up, or should I replace him with Culpepper, Brady, or Leftwich?

I'm leaning toward McNabb.

I'd play Culpepper against the Seahwaks this week(should be a shootout in the dome).  Gonna be cold and maybe snowing in Philly on Sunday but i'd still play Daunte if it was sunny and 65 in Philly.

Culpepper with Brady a close second.  McNabb has not been as good of a fantasy QB this year.  The Eagles have used the running game in the red zone and McNabb has not had as many rushing TD's.

Brady has a tough match up this week against Miami.  And he has a lot of WR's hurt(not that it has slowed him down much).

Bah, screw you guys (thanks for the input), I'm going to stick with McNabb in anticipation of a great game against the Cowbitches.

You must play fantasy football with your mind, not your heart young grasshopper.  McNabb playing in either really cold weather with a potential for wind/rain/snow vs. Culpepper playing Seattle at HOME in a dome is just plain common sense.
Seattle 19th against the pass and horrible on the road.
Dallas #1 against the pass and #5 in points allowed.

Does that always guarantee for one QB to do better than the other?  No, but to go against the odds in this case could take you out of the playoffs in the first round. ;D

Blah, blah, blah. Anything can happen any given Sunday. Just wait and see - on Monday you'll be calling me Nostradamus. 8)

Besides my RBs are Ahman Green (against Da Bears) and Stephen Davis (against the Falcons).

You are crazy, if you have Culpepper with this matchup, Green and Davis you are almost guaranteed a win.  Then again seeing PG win with her joke of a team so many times this year makes me remember that you are right. Who knows.

one reason i said Culpepper is that the Vikes defense has blown chunks of late and Hasselbeck has been tearing it up.. .that means the Vikes will probably have to put up a lot of points via pass game.

Couldn't agree more.  Well, I could agree more but I'm just too lazy to right now.  

The Vikes will likely be playing catch up all day and Culpepper will be throwing his arm off.  OOOOORRRRRR, the Seahawks are such a terrible team on the road that it will be easy pickins for Culpepper.  

But I like your decision to stay with McNabb.  He can't be a sucky fantasy qb forever.  Perhaps this is the week he accounts for a lot of points.

I need help guys/gals If I win this weekend I am in, and as much as I want to play McNabb & Westy the team I am going against has Manning & Taylor. So here are my players to choose from.

QB McNabb/Brooks/Kitna
Flex Westy or Bennett  

I have two solid RB's and Westy has been doing great for me in the flex spot, with the Vikes Defense Bennet might not get that many touches (I read your comments murp), and  I have a feeling we may see a lot of DUUUUUUCE sunday any thoughts, please help !!

MURP

If you want to go with Fantasy football logic you have got to start Kitna.  In his last 3 games against the Ravens he has averaged 285 yards and threw 7 TD's and he is on fire of late.

Brooks wasnt good against Tampa last time... and McNabb hasnt been a good Fantasy QB all year let alone against a solid pass D like the Cowturds.

Your RB situation is a bit tougher... id go with Westy just because he seems to get a lot of touches near the goaline... where Moe Williams takes most of em in Minnesota instead of Bennett.

but whatever the odds say... just go with your gut.  If you feel good about DMAC, go with it.
