Need decision making help.

I'm debating on starting Flacco over Brady this week, so I'm looking for opinions on who I should start.

I would start Flacco. Brady looks like trash so far and Cleveland is a practice squad team at best.

Flacco: Cleveland is not very good but have been decent against this pass thus far this season with just 174 yards allowed per game. Flacco should be fine to continue his ascent up the NFL QB ladder and we think his Ravens will continue their winning ways Week 3. Think of Flacco as a solid No. 2 Fantasy option for Week 3.

Brady: Brady's admission hints that he's still not all the way back from a torn ACL suffered in Week 1 last season. After Week 1, he could have fooled us as he led the Patriots to a win and threw for 300 yards in the process, but last week was tough for him as he faced an aggressive Jets defense that hounded him and did a very good job of blanketing WR Randy Moss. He also played without receiver Wes Welker, forcing rookie Julian Edelman into Welker's place. If Brady gets his full complement of receivers back against a Falcons secondary in Week 3 that is good but not great, he could post some solid stats. Start him if you own him and trust that he'll either get his throwing mechanics to where he needs them to be or still be an effective passer in spite of them.

I would still start Brady. Good chance the Ravens just run it down the throat of Cleveland. Brady is a guaranteed passer...just not sure to whom.
