Luck at home vs. Houston

Brees at Bear.

Logic says Luck, but after the ass-reaming the Saint got after Sunday, I figure Brees will go off on the Bear.

Luck. He is much more consistent, and there is always the chance he runs for a TD.

Brees has a higher ceiling, but Luck has a higher floor.

Come on. This is a no brainer. Hang up on yourself.

Luck is the MVP of most if not all leagues this year. Brees outside? I don't care if he's playing the Bears.

Look up Luck's numbers for the game earlier this year vs. Houston on a Thursday night.

Luck. And it's a not tough decision.

Brees will break your heart.

Agreed, this is an easy one. Take the guy with the higher floor.

The bigger question is why do you have both these guys on your roster this late in the season???? Surely you could've traded one of them a couple weeks back and added at least one position player that is good enough to start for you. Yet here you are, in the playoffs, with the prospects of having a great player sitting on your bench the whole time.

I know its off topic a bit, but imagine if Clowney was the double team force that couldnt be stopped as he was billed and JJ Wattenstein was playing like he is now. Everything on that D becomes vicious. Go find the JJ watt pre game mic up. Do they test for amphetamines? he is so gooped up before a game.

Go with my guy Luck. However, I won't be surprised if Brees and the Saints get healthy against the Bears and put 50 points on the board.

Clowney had microfracture surgery. It never seem like guys fully recover from microfractures

Yeah, you tell him! A bad performance in which he still did better than Brees!

I don't expect the Bears secondary to be much resistance and the Saints just got humiliated. Their bipolar tendencies will continue this week.

He needs a heart transplant.

'He was widely criticized by many scouts and football people for his work ethic.

Scouts say a lot of things. You choose what to believe based on your preconceived notions. The fact that you question his heart, when he has a serious injury that required surgery, seems to confirm this.

I know that he is hurt. That doesnt change his reputation as a guy who doesnt practice and study hard.

Are you basing this on him sitting out games during his junior year? Spurrier had nothing but good things to say about him.

Actually, the old ball coach was critical of Clowneys work ethic too.

He said Clowney's work ethic was ok. He wanted to come out after his sophomore year, but NFL rules wouldn't allow it. He was protecting his asset during his junior year. It sounds like he was making a sound business decision. If anybody should be behind that, it's you.

Gimme a break. Luck was the fucking fantasy MVP all season. Throw it in my face now, but it was a dumb question.

Meatball, if you are going to ask others for advice, you can't be pissed when the advice isn't perfect.
