need some help

I have Brian Griese and Jay Fiedler. Call me sacrilege but I have been starting Griese the whole year. I'm 5-0. But I also have the Miami Defense and Randy McMichael. That's a lot hinging on the play of one team if I start Fiedler. At the same time, my opponent has Chris Chambers. Hmmm....

I also have Ed McCaffrey who must start this week, he's filling in for during a bye.

Should I stay the course and start Griese or play the erratic Jay?

It's a gamble either way. I had Kurt Warner in a ffl league and Jay as the backup. If Ihad started Jay the last 5 weeks, I'd be in first place, even counting the KC debacle. That bum Warner didn't do anything for me. IMHO I'd start Jay just because the way that the offense is designed: for him to throw a lot of high percentage passes. Plus I think Jay can get a score every now and then with his feet as well as his arm. Greise is an ok passer but I don't know that he's as mobile as Jay. Judgement call.

Go with Jay. He is playing a weaker secondary and has the better OC......

I would start Jay... actually I do start Jay.. I had McNabb and traded him away, so now I start Jay, Ricky and McMicheal... btw I also have Holmes, Conway, Price, Hearst, Jimmy Smith and Tim Brown..
Needless to say, I am in first place

I am kinda in the same predicament. Do I go with Jay Fiedler, or Tommy Maddox??

Tough call. I would actually go with Griese just because hes taken you this far. Dont let personal sentiment get in the way of winning your FF league.

Actually, I just made a bet with a friend that fiedler out performs Griese. I figure, with all that's riding on Fiedler this week, why not.

But now he is starting for sure. Last week better not have been a fluke. I'll kill him if he has another KC fiasco.

Thanks for all the advice.
