    im starting Mcnabb this weekend but if i had another option i would start em. Specially Brees.


    The following from ESPN.com for this week:

    Brees (Projected to have 13 fantasy points):

    "Effective if unspectacular game with Tomlinson carrying offense Brees is killing opposing defenses softly. Of his 13-touchdown passes, seven are between 10-19 yards. Brees' effectiveness in the red zone comes courtesy of opposing defenses' focus on stopping LaDainian Tomlinson and the top shelf talent of Antonio Gates. Facing a Jets' defense that will consistently throw 8-men at Tomlinson, Brees should be able to pick apart New York's pass defense by frequently targeting Gates against the athletic but undersized MLB Jonathan Vilma. "


    Mcnabb (Projected to have 11 fantasy points):

    "Throws all day, good for owners, bad for McNabb's health
    Even against an aggressive Washington defense that will likely follow Denver's script from last week and relentlessly pressure him with zero coverage, McNabb remains one of fantasy's top quarterbacks. The Eagles' offense is slanted 70% to 30% in favor of McNabb and the passing game and Andy Reid isn't likely to significantly shift that percentage in a key divisional matchup...."
