I have a standard league championship.  Got both Romo and Stafford.  Romo needs to win, but is hurt, Stafford healthy but may sit some.  Who do you roll with?

I think I would roll with Romo. He has the Giants putrid pass defense.
 
Marcus, if you are playing for a championship in week #17 please consider getting out of it for next year and joining a new league which ends in week # 16.

Big problem, seems like everyone is thinking Stafford is playing. Keep an eye on Romo's status because I agree with James, he's the play but he doesn't play till Sunday night. If there is any sign that Stafford plays the whole game you will want to go with him.
I also agree with James, if this is a big money league, get away from week 17. But if this is small money or fun league I see no reason not to enjoy the whole season. Good luck! If both QB's are playing, no wrong decision!

I'd go with Romo. Like you said he needs to win and Stafford probably will sit  late in the game.
Good luck.

Week 17 is a crap shoot and this is one crappy decision.  Romo gets my call only because he has to win to get to the playoffs.

Maybe I am missing something but I don't see Stafford sitting in this game unless they build a huge lead. The Lions need to win this week to wrap up the 5th seed. I still think you can't go wrong either way though.

I have to agree in this case with O1P, James and Rich normally I'm the when in doubt play the healthy guy (guy) but Romo has to win...technically Stafford doesn't.

I agree with Glenn...get out of week 17!

Same situation with a different QB.  Romo almost killed me in week 16.  Russ Bliss says "Matt Hasselbeck isn't on the injury report at all and will start.
Tennessee needs a lot of help, but they haven't been eliminated from
playoff consideration yet and therefore will be motivated."  But when I look at theLineup analyzer I see Romo with 22 and Hasselbeck with only 6.  Really don't want to starr Matt but Is Tony Roma a real Go??

I'd go Romo over Hass, but Stafford over Romo.
