How could he not?He looks like he's over his injury, has a great rushing attack to take pressure off of him, huge talent at WR and has thrown 2 TDs in four of his last five starts.
Check back about 3:45 on Sunday.
Who would you put him in front of?
I'd have him pretty close with Schaub.
Okay well let me give you my thoughts between the two of them and why I would prefer Schaub.Schaub has a dominating wrSchaub has a better wr corpSchaub plays in a dome compared to the horrible weather in Chicago in winterSchaub is in more of a west coast offense as where Chicago is a run first teamHouston doesn't have as good of a defense which means they have to throw more late to stay in gamesI think Schaub is a better passerMuch more aggressive offensively
I really like Schaub but Delhomme is just extremely reliable. Atleast 200 and 2 every game it seems. I really like him this year. I might be a little too high on him but I see a lot of upside in Jake the second half of the year.
I would do either of those in a minute
i'd be willing to bet almost any amount of money that schaub outperforms delhomme the rest of the year.
I'd definately put him in front of Eli Manning in fantasy this year.
I disagree, Tatum. Although I like Campbell...what we've seen is what we'll get from Washington I believe. Washington is good enough to run some good numbers in the passing game against some of the weaker defenses but when it's tight, I don't think we'll see Campbell with 300 yard games. That's not a knock on him and that doesn't mean they won't win, I just don't think that's the style of football they're going to be playing. On the flip side, I and probably just about everyone else expects Portis to finish with huge numbers.
I've liked Campbell as a QB for awhile now, he can be a very good game manager in Washington, and I think he's a fine part of a QBBC. But he's not a top 10 QB in FF despite having a good offense and pretty good WRs. It will be interesting to see if the rookie WRs pan out, if they do he could be a very good FF QB in the future.
I agree.. & I would also rather have Orton than Delhomme..
Disagree GB.He is in the 14-15 range for me and playing great NFL QB, but middle of the road fantasy wise.I haven't seen anything to indicate a great passing attack coming up for the Skins or change in offensive philoshpy coming up. They have mapped out an effective offensive plan that is working and getting them W's. Also, as the cold weather comes the Skins will continue to really on a solid O-line and Portis and company. They have tough games coming up against: Dallas (Who will be healthier by that time)Seattle (On the road-very loud stadium)Giants-Great pass rushBaltimore-Tough defensein Cindy in mid Dec (Weather could be a factor)Philly-great secondarySF
Campbell currently ranks 7th in one of my dynasty leagues and 9th in the other, albeit without a bye week yet.
I agree that Portis is the focus, and I've actually compared Campbell's role thus far to Troy Aikman's in the early 1990's, saying Campbell runs the offense, converts 3rd downs, makes plays as needed and avoids big mistakes. This passing offense, however, will ultimately having him throw more than Aikman did during those years. But I think what's gotten lost with the quick success of the team is that Zorn continues to install his offense. I heard Sonny Jurgenson of the Redskins' radio team mention during the Lions game that Zorn had just installed another bloc of plays prior to that game and that that was part of the reason why, to their observation, plays were taking longer to get into the huddle and the offense seemed sluggish. This passing game is not the finished product. Now, with a running game like this and the defense playing well there's no reason to even try to have Campbell do a Drew Brees impersonation. OTOH the passing offense is moving the ball very well during games, and I'd expect the TDs to increase above 1/game as the team continues to get more comfortable in this offense. In my first (and more conventionally scored) league the QB10 last year was McNabb with 3324 19/7 (and a rushing TD) - Campbell, who's already on pace for 3500 yards can quite easily reach those numbers. All I'm saying is he should be in the conversation.
I agree with this guy. I think Campbell is still flying under the radar due to his low TD numbers, but in spite of his averaging only 1 per game, he is still int he top ten in most scoring formats. 2 TD games may not become his norm, but you can bet they will start to come more frequently. I definitely think he finishes the season top 10.Tatum Bell said:Campbell currently ranks 7th in one of my dynasty leagues and 9th in the other, albeit without a bye week yet.I agree that Portis is the focus, and I've actually compared Campbell's role thus far to Troy Aikman's in the early 1990's, saying Campbell runs the offense, converts 3rd downs, makes plays as needed and avoids big mistakes.

I think you should go back and look at the stats for Delhomme again. He has had three weeks out of eight in which he did not score a TD at all. He has a total of 9 TDs in 8 games played. In comparison Schaub has had only one game in six in which he failed to score a TD. In each of the other five games, Schaub scored at least two TDs (either by passing or rushing). Schaub is averaging 2 TDs per game this year. Schaub is both more consistent and more productive of the two this year (so far).
I believe two of those games werre minus Steve Smith. I would rank Shaub slightly higher than Delhomme but not by much and it's only because there will be one or two games that Carolina leans heavily on their run game. they always seem to have an occasional game where both running backs top 100 yards.
As a Rodgers owner, weeks 13 and 16 are the weeks to be worried about. Important weeks.... Luckily, I grabbed Pennington so that I have an option if needed. Those weeks, he'll get STL and KC. You could argue that week 14 will be an issue, but the Pack will be in must-win territory and it's in GB but against Houston. I'm guessing they are able to air it out regardless.
Who exactly is listing 20 QBs?
You've got to do a little of both, don't you? I mean, you have to consider how the Qb's have played so far.Personally, I'm not sure how Eli Manning makes any top 10 fantasy QB list. He may actually have a decent game against the Cowboys but he isn't a top 10 fantasy QB, definately not when you're averaging per game.If you're starting Eli Manning every week, you're very beatable.
Bam...glad I listened to myself.
