Anyone else going with Kyle Orton this week? (1 Viewer)

I had Eli Manning queued up and ready to go as my starting QB, but when I started to think about the Panthers defense that I've seen in the preseason (and the pass D last year), I worried about Eli's performance. Then, I started looking into Kyle Orton, and I'm starting to think that he may be a guy that can put up some numbers.

Injured running back? Check.

Playing a poor pass defense? Check.

Potential shoot out? Check.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I'm taking my chances. I'm relying on a Orton/Gaffney combo, so hopefully it doesn't backfire!

Benching Matt Ryan for Orton this week, I like his chances much better than Ryan at Pittsburgh.

Gaffney check - who I think will be a top 10 producing WR this week

I keep going back and forth between Gaffney and Hines Ward. I was set to start Gaffney, until I decided to go with Orton. I'm leaning towards Ward now, just for diversification reasons.

Doing the exact same. Hoping he has to throw 2 TDs by shear necessity.
