Philip Rivers or Josh Freeman As Starter?
So I have Josh Freeman, but Philip Rivers just came available on the waiver wire. I can pick him up now before the Tampa Bay game, so I need some quick advice. If I pick up Rivers I am dropping Freeman.

Who will be better both this week and for the duration of the season as my starter Philip Rivers or Josh Freeman. I ask for the season, because if Freeman does well tonight and I have dropped him someone will swoop in and pick him up as soon as next week's waivers become available.

Typically Rivers is a very solid QB for fantasy football, but this year he has choked numerous times. So I want to get as many opinions as possible on this as it will have a lasting impact on my season.

    I'd like to play matchups with them but if you can have only one go for Rivers. Freeman already had his best two games of the season.

    I have both of them as well and going forward i am keeping both n playing the match ups going forward especially with JFreeman playing NO one more time during playoff week. This week Rivers has a better match up vs. Browns.

    Oh, I didn't see for the rest of the year. I still think Rivers will be a little better all year.

    Typically I would agree with you, because Rivers is normally a great pick. This year he is just not himself, and we know much less about Freeman. Thus why I am concerned with this scenario. They play each other in Week 10 as well, so if I drop Freeman for Rivers and I am wrong...it will hurt all season long.

    Yeah I hear ya but if it makes you feel any better Philip Rivers schedule is considerably easier than Freemans
