Start or Bench (Early Edition)?

Here is the Start/Bench for Thursday's tilt between Chicago and Washington. We'll have the rest of the games up on Friday...

Chicago at Washington

Start: Chris Cooley, WAS - Cooley has been a monster lately, with between 6-8 catches and 89-96 yards in each of his last 3 games, with TD's in 2 of them. Look for the streak to continue this week in Thursday night's tilt against Da Bears...
Prediction: 7 catches, 97 yards, 0 TD's.

Bench: Greg Olsen, CHI - Check out the splits for Olsen by QB:

Averages with Griese at QB (4 games): 5 catches, 57 YPG with 2 TD's.
Averages with Rex at QB (5 games): 2 catches, 18 YPG with 0 TD's.


And in the 5 games where Rex has started, 7 of Olsen's 12 catches came in 1 game. Needless to say, he is a definite sit, and is borderline droppable in most leagues...
Prediction: 2 catches, 16 yards, 0 TD's.
