QB to start week one

nic9212 · 09-08-2015, 12:40 AM

Which QB should I start week one. Flacco, Palmer or Mariota?
This would be head to head against kapernick unless he picks up someone on the waiver wire. (No body that great there...)
This is standard scoring league

My players
QB:#@Joe Flacco,#@Marcus Mariota
RB:#@Jeremy Hill,#@Latavius Murray,#@Jonathan Stewart,#@Andre Ellington,#@Bishop Sankey
WR:#@Dez Bryant,#@T.Y. Hilton,#@Brandin Cooks,Pierre Garcon,#@Victor Cruz,#@Cody Latimer
TE:#@Jordan Cameron
PK:#@Matt Prater
TD:#@Denver Broncos

Dropped cruz(injured) and picked up palmer because thinking palmer would have better game against NO defense.

Those are some fun options, no sleepers available? I'd roll with Palmer or Flacco, probably Palmer.

Palmer. Will most likely get you 2 touchdowns, and he protects the ball well.

I don't like Flacco going up against arguably one of the best pass defenses and really only having one target to throw to as of today.

I like Palmer a little bit more, but will still face a stingy pass rush in the Saints.

Mariota would be interesting, but 1) has he even been named the starter yet? and 2) not sure what to think of the Bucs defense and 3) rookie QB will likely make rookie mistakes.

I'm not even sure I would have grabbed Carson Palmer on the waiver wire. Why not go after someone like Ryan Fitzpatrick who may not put up crazy numbers, but they are playing CLE @ home. To me that says that he will toss probably 200+ and 2 TDs and possibly more with that Jets defense going against that soft CLE offense. Means Fitzpatrick should have more time with the ball to do some damage.

Thanks for everyone for the insights. Usafshelland very good point and I am thinking about this. Also debating starting Stewart or Ellington for the flex position. Anyone know how good NO run defense is?
