Bulger is playing against a tough defense this week and is slightly injured, while Cutler is playing a defense that is pretty good too, what should I do???
Thanks In Advance

Cutler looked really shaky in his first start for Denver. I'm not knocking the guy, or Coach Shanahan for giving him the start but, the kid is really rough around the edges. He might throw for 350 and 3TD's but how likely is that? Based on what he showed in his first game I don't see that happening. History has shown us that rookie QB's often are given a watered down playbook with plenty of run plays to offset their nerves and inability to judge NFL defenses. Look for Denver to pound the ball for the next couple of weeks, but hold onto Cutler because he will be a stud.
Keeping in mind that it is Playoff time in Fantasy Football I would instead go with the lesser of two evils and hope that Marc Bulger can have a decent to good game against the Bears.
The main difference between the two QB's is that if St. Louis' Offense is going to have any success it will be because Bulger made it work. If Denver is going to have any success it will be because they made the offense work around the limitations of Cutler.
Stay with the safe pick...it's the Playoffs! Good luck!

Go Cutler.....Bulger faces the #2 pass defense in the league with Chicago. San Diego's pass defense is rated 13th. San Diego has allowed 16 passing TD's while Chicago only 8. Taco Tatum Bell is healthy and the run game will take pressure off Cutler.

Start Bulger until Cutler actually proves he can play in the pros

You need to start Bulger, Cutler will be eaten alive by the Chargers D this weekend.

My heart says Cutler ( I'm starting J Walker) but my gut tells me Bulger. Neither are real good options. Check the waiver wire....

Bulger is the proven quarterback and he has proven he can put up big numbers with his recieving core of holt and bruce so you should start bulger and besides you never know how a rookie is gonna play and you dont know how the chemistry between him and his recievers is gonna play out so start bulger

cutler!!!.... he's in his second start and you know shannonhan will have him better prepaird for the matchup... besides, he will not throw as much as the first game ( he had pretty decent stats in the first game by the way ) his ability to move out of the pocket and find open recievers is the reason why i will pick him over bulger

Bulger, becuz Culter is a rookie and will make the basic mistakes rookies make. Bulger wont do that well, but he will do better than cutler.

At this point in the FF season you need to decide if you are in a position to take chances if it is a must win, all or nothing.. then I would take a chance with Cutler who may get a lot of chances because Denver is trying to get him a lot of passes because they are playing for nothing.
Bulger on the other hand doesnt show much promise.
1.) he is hurt
2.) S. Jackson is carrying the team why change that.
