FoxSports.com reports that David Carr, not Matt Moore, would start for the Panthers Sunday if Vinny Testaverde can't play.

The Panthers will give Vinny a muscle relaxant for his back Saturday night in hopes that he loosens up in time for the game. If the Panthers are so desperate to avoid playing Carr, fantasy leaguers should be as well.

That's too bad. Moore interests me - I'd really like to see what he could do on the field. I'm sure S Smith would like to as well!

Mr. Mackey John Clayton says Vinny chould be ready to go today (PLEASE let it be true).

(*!@^$@(!* i can't pull the trigger on benching him for henry now.

hes way too overdue....but it is david carr...

 

[jamil]

Vinnys not inactive but hes the 3rd QB per NFLN

 

[PantherPower]

FUUUUUUUUUDGE!!! Is that POS Carr definitely starting? If so, I'm benching Smith in every league...if Moore starts, I'll keep him in.

 

[JaxJokers]

Just benched Steve Smith for Brandon Marshall.

 

[davidwb]

geez...on the one hand you've got a GREAT mtchup against the NO defense...on the other hand you've got Carr at QB.

what to do with Smith? Toomer instead? Brown? (not against the Pats!).

i wish i'd drafted TO or Moss instead of Smith!!!

 

[crowe1130]

And Steve Smith heads to my bench for Bobby Engram.

Smith's line against the Saints in the first matchup was 4-47-1. The TD was nice but the vast majority of the game saw Carr struggle badly to get the ball to Smith. He was rarely targeted and though he did score late his production for most of the game was pathetic given the matchup.

I would view Smith as now being in the 35-40 range among WRs this week. If you have good options who rank higher I'd start them without hesitation. Carr has simply shown no ability whatsoever to get the ball to Smith consistently either in good matchups or bad ones. There's certainly a chance Smith could go off but the risk factor is far too great in my opinion. If you have no other choice, start him and hope for the best but be prepared for the worst.

Would you consider Santana Moss at Bucs a better start? Or Gore vs a tough Cards rush D a better start?God, why does David Carr hurt me so

anybody else keeping smitty in?

I am but I'm a glutton for punishment............

 

[beavers]

anybody else keeping smitty in?

I am... Not sure if I want to start a waiver wire scrub in front of him.

 

[RUSF18]

Hello. Although I lost my only other reasonable option since Roddy played Thursday. It's between Smith and Drew Bennett at this point.

 

[Johnny Ice]

I'm off to the WW to find an available scrub, I'm confident Smith will do nothing with Mr. Checkdown calling the signals.

 

[Judge Smails]

Galloway in for me, Smith to the pine.

 

[swirvenirvin]

anybody else keeping smitty in?

I am over Hackett and Chris Henry

 

[smcindoe]

Benched him for Hackett in one league, but keeping him in over Boldin in another.It feels like I have that backwards, but that's how it stands right now. I'll probably change my mind ten times in the next 13 minutes.

 

[NatronIsMean]

CRAP!!!! I started Smith... Man, Carr goes o-fer 3 thus far. How can a 1st round draft pick QB be that terrible?!
