Week 13 Start Em, Sit Em: T.J. Yates or A.J. Feeley?

Kyle VassaloDec 3, 2011

The recent rash of quarterback injuries has some grasping at straws. Starting a lackluster quarterback may be your only option and, though it's not an ideal situation, it's not the end of the world.

Alex K. Hall finds himself in this predicament and hits us up with this scenario.

Josh Freeman's status is still questionable, so his situation is worth monitoring throughout the day. Let's take a look at the other two emergency options just in case he doesn't get the nod.

According to Rotowire.com, A.J. Feeley might be given the nod on Sunday. If Sam Bradford can't go, Feeley will need to step up and take charge of the second-most pathetic team in the NFL.

Sam Bradford threw more touchdowns than interceptions twice all season in the offense Feeley is inheriting.

Feeley would be behind a battered and broken offensive line with limited weapons. Steven Jackson is going up against the best run defense in the NFL and the run game shouldn't help Feeley whatsoever.

Justin Smith and Aldon Smith are going to be making Feeley's life miserable. Bradford would be a must-sit in this situation. You would be crazy to start Feeley under any circumstances.

T.J. Yates is now at the helm for the Texans. He's in a far more favorable situation than Feeley, as he's got the best wide receiver in football at his disposal and Arian Foster in the backfield.

You shouldn't expect Matt Schaub numbers and the Texans are undoubtedly going to plug away on the ground, but Yates should be able to excel against a stacked box.

The Falcons only allow 83.5 rushing YPG. Their weakness is in their pass defense, where they surrender 245.7 YPG through the air.

If Yates can muster up 200 yards and a touchdown, you should consider that an overwhelming success. Houston is stacked with talent and the Falcons love to stop the run.

Start T.J. Yates
