So I have Holcomb and Brad Johnson in one of my leagues. Who gets the start? Holcomb is tempting because of what he did last week, and the fact he lit up the Steelers for 400 yards (or something like that) last January.
I have this crazy hunch that Tampa puts up a higher pass total this week (but JUST for this week) because of the whole Keyshawn thing. Basically it'll be Tampa making the statement of "Keyshawn, p-shaw! We got plenty without him"
Besides, Holcomb has been up and down all year with his production.
If Martha Stewart's obituary had a typo in it, would it read "Beloved Aunt"?
Hector and Victor on espn.com have Holcomb ranked fifth overall and fourth among QBs with a projected 20 points this week, but I think that is partly based on how he lit up the Steelers in last year's playoff game. They have Johnson ranked ninth among QBs because the Giants have given up a lot of yards and TDs the last four weeks.

And the Giants' defensive situation is about to get even worse now that Williams and Holmes have gone on IR. The Steelers are due - start Johnson, I say. (But then again, I may be biased.) ;)

"What're they up to now..where did that huge pipe come from?!" "They're going down in the pipe! They're..they're gone!" --Mike Sweetser
"Oh my god, JR. Cade just shrunk after he was hit by that chair!" "Here comes RVD, King. What's that he has in that bag?" "Are those Mushrooms, JR?" "Cade's eating the Mushrooms. BAH GAWD, KING! Cade just grew twice his size!" --Mr. Tuesday

Fuck me in the earhole. At least as far as my non-fantasy team goes. Fantasy-wise, prepare for me to crush all hu-mans playing for JALmans and reclaim that top spot.
In case you're still wondering, I went with Johnson and won my matchup. 7-5, first in my division. Can't say the same for my shitty Wiener League team.
If Brees puts up another solid year, they sign him long term. Otherwise, if they fall out of playoff contention this year they'll probably bench Brees and start Rivers, who then becomes the full-time starter next year.
