Roethlisberger or Dalton in week 14? (1 Viewer)

achiappanza

Big Ben's in Buffalo, Dalton's in Cleveland.

Crap weather in both places.

25 yards per point, 4 pts TD pass, 6 run.  Bonus at 300 yards.

I almost always take Ben, but Buffalo seems much tougher than Cleveland and Ben's been pretty weak on the road.

Don't know if it matters to anyone, but I'm also starting Eifert and Bell.

God that's rough - Big Ben would be the call for me. Buffalo just got shredded by Oakland so it's just a matter of playing on the road. 

Dalton had a great game last week and a lot of mediocre games this year. No way I'd start him over Roethlisburger - reeks of chasing last week's points. How much is Cinci realistically going to have to air it out against the one of the worst offenses in the NFL?  Buffalo can at least score some points and are good against the run, which should force Roethlisburger to throw the ball most of the day. And PIT loves to go for 2, so that's a bonus as well. 

TIA

I have to go with Ben despite Dalton's matchup. I trust his weapons more and think the game will be close and he will continue to pass. 

 
Ben has Antonio to throw to,Andy doesn't have A.J.

Steelers are making playoff push,Bengals are counting the days until New Years.

Winter weather? Ben cut his teeth in Ohio,Andy in Texas.

I'm just sayin'

 
I was going with Dalton all week because I've just been so disappointed with Ben on the road.  But based on Sunday morning weather and the higher winds in Cleveland, I swtiched.  

Dumb.  Dalton had 2 TD's 0 int and Ben had 0 TD's, 3 int. 

Ah well.  Thanks to Le'Veon Bell and the Atlanta D, I still move on.
