Coach Jim Harbaugh said Tuesday that he believes Alex Smith is the long-term answer at quarterback for the 49ers.
ESPN Chicago reports that the Bears plan to start Josh McCown over Caleb Hanie in Week 16 against the Packers.

crazy that Marino's record, which has stood strongly through many great seasons by many great QBs now might be broken by 2-4 guys in the same season. Reminds me of the McGwire/Sosa chase to 62, hopefully with less PEDs
Edit: Damn, beaten

Playoff Scenarios Week 16: Win and in: Atlanta - Falcons clinch a playoff berth with a win or a tie, or losses or ties by Arizona and Chicago and a loss or tie by either Dallas or the NY Giants. Yeah, but what if Bane blows up the field during the game?

I knew the Bleacher Report was bad, but Jesus Christ. Yeah, how dare the Chiefs win time of possession and *gasp* knee the ball at the end of the game.

I guess someone thinks that if they shout stupid things about sports on the internet they too can get the chance to say stupid things on ESPN2.

So Brady and Brees are both in positions to easily break Marino's record while Eli and Rodgers have a decent shot if they don't stink it up the last two games. Unreal how well these four quarterbacks have done this season. Any one of them would be easy MVP winners if they were having these seasons in separate years.

Championship Weekend in Fantasy. Who should I start at QB?
Matt Moore (at Patriots) Rex Grossman (vs. Vikings) Mark Sanchez (vs. Giants) Carson Palmer (at Chiefs)
Oh, and should I start Sproles (vs. Falcons) over Lynch (vs. 49ers)?

The winner will definitely be deserving, no doubt, but there isn't just one front-runner

Matt Moore (at Patriots) Rex Grossman (vs. Vikings) Mark Sanchez (vs. Giants) Carson Palmer (at Chiefs) Oh, and should I start Sproles (vs. Falcons) over Lynch (vs. 49ers)? Sproles. After week 6 or week 7, it became clear that you should NOT start a RB who is facing San Fran. That rushing defense eats elite running backs alive. Lynch is doomed. As for your QB situation. Either Moore or Sexy Rexy. I can't choose between those two as I'm in the EXACT same situation. New England has the worst pass defense in the league(aren't they using wide receivers at cornerback right now?), but at the same time, the Vikings just gave up 400+ passing yards. It is a tough choice.

Though, with the undefeated season no longer possible, its more wide open than it was last week

I'd say start Grossman and Sproles, I think there's a great chance Moore, Sanchez, and Palmer struggle against the other team's secondaries, I think Grossman has the best shot at success.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I think I'll go with Rexy even though he almost cost me a spot in the title game last week (wasn't he supposed to set the Giants on fire?).
and good luck to everyone playing for a fantasy title this weekend!
