    Fantasy Football question....

    Should I start Wentz or Brady this week?

    Wentz has the better matchup on paper but it may be raining cats and dogs in Philly on Sunday. Any thoughts?

    Brady. I'm starting rivers over Carr against the Bills. Think pats chargers will be a pass fest

    Brady, but I think they'll be comparable.

    Last few weeks Wentz has been far more effective than Brady because Wentz runs every now and then. Love Brady but it's supposed to rain a lot in Philly. Hmmmm.....

    I wouldn't rely on a forecast 4 days out but I would still take Brady either way.

    I'd only worry about wind. Rain isn't usually much of an issue.

    Exactly, especially wind gusts. Rain and wetness can actually be advantageous to the offense.

    Yeah but there’s regression to the mean, and there’s tried and true.

    Scoring system should be considered or explained

    Bonuses for pass completions or big plays could have a slight impact when comparing these 2

    It is a PPR league. No bonuses. 4 points for passing TDs and .05 points per passing yard. Example... 40 yard TD pass is worth 6 points

    NO trade league or I would. Plus I'm in 1st with a commanding league. Nice to have a stud on the bench if an injury occurs.
