Brees tied with Vick. O RLY?

Thanks for explaining P. I guess if I played FF I'd be more conservative and always go with the law of averages. Vick had a outstanding season last year but the his mean average tells me it will likely not happen again. Brees on the otherhand it's almost a given he will achieve certain goals/points. I'd go with the more sure pick at QB and take risk at other positions. I likely would lose as well since the goal is to achieve the highest point total.

Sure Vick has (had) the ability - we know as NOS fans what he can do. BUT can he stay healthy?
Of course that is the big question for everyone!!

Depends on how scoring is done. In ESPN standard leagues, Vick was the top scoring QB.

Even in your scoring format, coming in 4th with only 12 games played is a gold mine. It isn't as if you get no points at QB on the games he isn't available for. That is why you have a backup.
