Matt Hasselbeck or Philip Rivers? Plus other Week 4 choices?

QB: I've been playing Hasselbeck every week but Rivers did very well last week and with them playing Kansas City this week, I'm leaving towards Rivers. What do you think?

RB: I'm finally benching Maroney this week...I'm getting tired of waiting for him to score! I'm going with Sean Alexander and Ronnie Brown. Any thoughts?

WR: This one is tougher for me. So far, I'm going with Torry Holt, Anquan Boldin and Jerricho Cotchery. But I also have Santonio Holmes and Dwayne Bowe. If Hines Ward doesn't play, I may substitute Holmes but I don't know which of the others to take out. Cotchery is listed as Questionable and Boldin didn't practice on Wed which isn't a good sign. Plus I'm not so sure how he would do against the Pittsburgh Defense. What do you think?

Many, many thanks for any guidance I can get!

    I would go with Rivers against KC. I'm thinking he will have a pretty good game against the KC pass D. I would go with Brown (he got a bunch of Fantasy points last week and i think he will continue playing against Oakland) and Alexander.

    I read that Ward was hurt. So you might to go ahead with Holt, Boldin and Holmes (if one is hurt and not able to play) switch them up Bowe or Cotchery. Boldin still had an excellent game against the Ravens...not sure how the QB is gonna handle the pressure against the Steelers D though.

    Hope this helps you out..good luck

    Hasselbeck is the way for me. Rivers may not pass at all, this WILL be L.T's breakout week!

    RB choices look good, just remember Shawn A. has broken bone in his wrist. He will still play but that makes me nervious.

    WR Boldin WILL play so keep him in, Holt is money and the last option...........flip a coin. Heads for Cotchery tails for Holmes!

    Good Luck!!!! BTW I am 0-3 in my league!!!!

    I lean toward Rivers, too....but not because I know twiddly dee about football. He's the son of one of the nicest high school friends I had. She got married right after we graduated and hers was the first wedding I ever attended. It was great.

    Phillip played high school football in Athens, AL...right next door to where I live.

    They are 'good folks' as we say in the south. =)
