    M. Ryan or Alex Smith?

    Matt Ryan has been doing very well for me so far, but everyone is talking about Smith being the weeks sleeper at QB. I'm not even sure I wanna risk that though since Ryan puts up solid points but Chargers have been playing pretty well defensively where as Vikings are sleeping in field. Any thoughts?

    Matt Ryan. You have to go with that uptempo offense, with those WR's and TE.

    The 49ers will run the clock, if they get up big on the Vikings.

    Chargers beat up on 2 bad teams (Raiders and Titans) so their numbers are skewed. Falcons beat 1 easier team and one more respectable team (Denver). Also in the Monday night game, they slowed up and played more cautious/defensively 2nd half to just hold on to their lead. I've seen some predicting a 31-3 Viking stomp. The safer pick will be Matty Ice, but Smith will likely put up nice numbers this week.

    Matt Ryan has a way better chance of putting up big numbers on any given week than alex smith. with the 9ers defense, Alex smith should have a "dont fukk this up" midset similar to trent dilfer when the ravens won the superbowl

    I would never bench Ryan over Smith in fantasy..Roddy White, Julio Jones and Tony Gonzalez get it done for Ryan.

    No reason to, its really just am act of out thinking yourself. Over the last 18 regular season games, Smith as had just 3 games where he's topped 250yrds, and just 1 game where hes thrown 3 TDs, and five where hes thrown zero.

    Ryan, meanwhile, has topped 250 in 11 of those 18 game and 300 6 times, hes also had just 1 game where he hasnt had a TD, and 6 Where he had 3 or more.

    It may well turn out that Alex Smith has a better week than Ryan this week, but there is no logical reason to think so, and banking on it happening in just throwing darts.

    I keep reading all these fantasy sites they are saying that Alex Smith is a better starting option than Peyton Manning. Are you fukkin kidding me? I know Alex Smith is a good QB, but if the 49ers go up by double digits, they'll simply run the clock and kick FG's all day.
