Who would you start this week at QB in fantasy?

Jon Kitna - vs. SEA or
Aaron Brooks - vs. CAR

Carolina has a tough D but against the pass they are suspect.
I also have Deuce McAllister on my team and while he may get shut down I have to start my best player. The question comes in where Kitna is hot (3 TD's last week) and if the Panthers are going to shut down the Saints at least one of the two (Brooks or McAllister has to score do SOMETHING).

As of right now Im going with Brooks. Kitna is inconsistent and Brooks looks as though he is starting to break out.

What would you do?
Thanks.

Tough one. I really think the Bengals are going to upset the Seahawks this week, but I think the running game is going to be big in them doing it.

Brooks should have some confidence after last week and is a streaky player.

I'd put a slight lean on Brooks. . . tough call though.

I would pick Kitna. Carolinas D is going to be to tough for Brooks. Then again, I have had too much to drink tonight so I really can not say............

I have Brooks and Pennington on my roster. Anyone know how much time he (Pennington) is supposed to get this weeK?

I have Brooks, McNabb and Bledsoe and am tenatively going with Brooks. Maybe I should gowith Bledsoe, tho. That Chiefs defense is might porous but I don't know Moulds's status.

It is really unknown. The Jets are going to try to "ease" him back into the starting role. Looks like he will be in there for 2-3 quarters. http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/players/5047/news

Yeah, from what I've heard today, Pennington will most likely enter the game midway through the second. Kind of odd strategy going into a game, in my opinion. Nothing like telling the starter that he's coming out no matter how well he does.

DOn't play pennington, he's not going to see a whole lot of time this week

Play bledsoe against a suspect chiefs secondary and an overall defense that Oakland showed can be beaten

Sit brooks against the panthers, he's not going to produce much

Take kitna over brooks, in the last 16 games Kitna has a passer rating of 85.4 and averages almost 300 yards a game.

Kitna is on a hot streak, yeah, but he's facing Seattle's secondary this week. They are just a bunch of young studs. I'd go with Brooks.
