Am I crazy to start Freeman over Brady in Week 15? Brady is facing a really tough 49ers D while Freeman is matched up against the worst defense in the league. Thoughts?
Not the craziest idea, though I'd bet the consensus response will be something along the lines of "never sit your studs" and the like. At the same time, it isn't like Freeman's been on fire lately, and he didn't look all that impressive against a pretty bad Eagles D. I probably stick with Tom, personally, but either start is defensible.
I'm just glad I have Freeman in this juicy matchup in case RGIII can't go on Sunday.
Go Brady! Believe it or not I have them 2 also (and Luck) and Im keeping Brady as my #1...Look at the doubts people had with starting him vs Houston and look what he did to them. I say go with him, he almost always puts up above average numbers so its less risky, im assuming your in the playoffs.
I see what you are saying, but the 49ers are a much tougher Defense. I've decided to go with Freeman since he is due for a big game and against a terrible defense at that.

that's the same for me. freeman will have a 20+ point game for sure, which is all i need

Why is that all you need, do you have studs at every position?

well I have Julio Jones, Arian Foster, and Doug Martin, and when they're hot I usually win, so if they have a good week, all I need is 20 from freeman
