Matt is the better QB overall, but I think Rivers will have a better game against the Chiefs than Matt will against Minnesota...Chiefs looked bad against the Steelers and Rivers had the Chargers rolling. I would gamble with Rivers...but hey that's me...Mr. Vegas...

oh...and welcome to the board...how do you like the job Joey is doing at QB?

Welcome to GoTeamsGo Disgruntled Dolphins Fan....I would start Hasselback for these reasons:

1) Seattle's at home, Alexander is out so they' re more likely to throw their TD's

2) KC at home can be a tough place to play. It gets loud there plus Tomlinson is on fire right now.

Dolphins fan: do you think the Fish will cover the 4.5 pt. spread this week over GB?

See, Alexander out means that they can and will zero in on the passing game...and the Vikes are no slouch on coverage...Tomlinson makes it possible for Rivers to play at the level he has...much like Alexander made Matt last year...Roll with Rivers...

That was exactly my sentiment for this game, if KC is stacking up the box to stop LT then Rivers is going to put it in the air. And I believe the Chargers will have more scores, the Vikes have a better secondary than the Chiefs

I'd also go with Rivers. He'll have a big day - heck, even Roethlesberger lit up the Chiefs defense this year!

I have to stick with Rivers for this week.

Gotham...I am super pleased with Joey compared to Daunte..I was never thrilled with Daunte to begin with I wanted Brees down there. Pundit, I would like to say that Miami should cover that spread against the Pack but you never know. My true answer would be yes though.

Daunte Culpepper this season=Ryan Leaf's NFL Career.

You can't beat the combination of Hasselback's great experience in the pocket, and the way Shaun Alexander handles his position as RB. Remember, that those two went to the Super Bowl with the way they played!

[MJHMarc]

The Seattle Seahawks will start to focus on their passing game now since they acquired sentational reciever, Deion Branch, a few weeks back. Shaun Alexander will still get his 20+ handoffs a game but Hasselback will start to scan the field for open recievers more often now. I am surprised that Seattle isn't undefeated with all those stars!

Oh well - I was wrong. But who knew that Hassleback would get hurt?
