Kyle Orton (Den) or Aaron Rodgers (GB) for fantasy week 6 starter?
Usually I go with the Aaron, but according to NFL website, Orton is projected for more. Both great QB's. what do you guys recommend? - Also pick a number on 1-10 on how sure/strongly you feel with 10 being the highest.

Orton and Rodgers are tied as the #3 fantasy QB right now (Yahoo standard scoring; pts/game). Orton faced the Titans and the Raens the last two weeks and put uyp good numbers against both of them. At the time of those games only two teams had allowed fewer fantasy points to opposing QBs than the Titans and the Ravens had allowed the fewest fantasy points to QBs. The Jets are near the bottom of the league. Rodgers has a tougher match up and is coming off a mild concussion. I would (and did) put in Orton over Rodgers this week. (8)

i am in this exact same situation.
in my league rodgers is projected 4 points higher but, it depends on what kind of league your in.
I have been juggling this all week, and at the end im going with rogers, hope he doesnt get hurt. This is the delema in this situation.
The only reason im going to go with rogers instead of Orton is because of the opposition. The concussion worries me.
if rogers doesnt get hurt, i like him more against WAS than i do about Orton against NYJ defense.
if orton were playing most other Defenses i woul play it safe and start him. Orton is one of the top FF QBs in the league this year an his FF #s are pretty much equall to rogers. if rodgers didnt have 2 rushing TDs and 99 rush yards, orton would have more fantasy points than rodgers this season.
on a scale, it a 5/10. again, orton is equall to rodgers in fantasy points this year. Orton is a stud too. this isnt a go with your stud situation.

Orton reason Rodgers ought to no longer even play. additionally Orton is taking part in sturdy ball and Rodgers is suffering. Lions won't provide up Orton yet Falcons will tension Rodgers somewhat extra.

i have this same dilemma. i'm concerned with the amount of pass attempts rodgers is gonna get due to his injury. obviously if the line can't block early, they're gonna have to stick to the running game. however, 'espn fantasy football now'-espn2- currently has rodgers ranked #5 this week and orton #7. i'm going with rodgers. 7/10

I would go Orton...Rodgers coming off concussion..Denver has no running game so you know they are going to pass A LOT ..ironic I know..and Revis may not even play for Jets ..which is even better for Orton...I'm starting my Bronco Wr.

Rodgers...(10)..easy choice. Always go with the stud. If you are worried about the concussion, I doubt they would let him play if he waqs not close to 100%. As far as those projections....well it depends what sight you look at.
