Weekly defense thread

Grabbed Oak v jets
Ravens v Cle

I have panthers from last week but not sure again bills. Im tempted to grab Lions vs NYG as Eli looks like hot garbage esp if OBJ is out again.

Pitt, Min, Phi are all available but have tough matchups

[The_Standard]

Oakland and Baltimore both got snatched ahead of me on waivers.

I've got Pittsburgh right now. Their matchup vs. Minnesota is tough to gauge since Minnesota played the Saints.
I'm tempted to play the Chargers DEF vs. Miami; I think Cutler gets eaten alive this year.

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

No bad matchups for me this week...

Have KC @ Philly
SEA @ SF
ARZ @ Indy

[bullybreed]

I am running Baltimore in one league, Tampa in one, Oakland in one and Cinci in one.

[dhawkeye1980]

NE v hou
Phi v NYG
Mia v NYJ

Thinking eagles v NYG right?

[JrM703]

I have Minnesota, but Denver is available.
I'm more comfortable riding one D for the majority of the season vs jumping on one each week...

...thoughts on picking up Denver?

They look pretty tight so far coming from a cowboys fan

you either play in a 4 man league or you play with idiots, either way go get denver i guess.

a few options for week 3 that are usually available
Miami (at Jets)
Eagles (home vs Giants, nobody can block)
Titans (home vs Hawks, again nobody can block)

if something happens to Bradford and he needs another week i would then start Tampa, they looked good last week and obviously Keenum is a POS so that'd be an easy choice.

[bullybreed]

[BothellBarbell]

Jags v NYJ, im hoping last week wasnt a fluke. Detroit defense has been playing well as well. I still have the eagles after rivers picks today im wondering if they are a good play or not

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

Streamed TB vs. Keenum..........did not see that coming................

[BothellBarbell]

What about Cincy vs the Browns? Liked what I saw against Packers yesterday but not sure if it's a fluke

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

I have no idea where to go with defenses this year.

Denver lets Tyrod put up 26
Ravens let Bortles throw 4 TDs
Seahawks get 0 turnovers and give up 33
Rams let 49ers score 38.

These were some of the best units going into the week.

It's going to be a crap shoot every week.

this week seems to be an anomaly for football (college and NFL). Those defenses should get back on track.

The Lions have been quietly putting up decent numbers.

16,18,10 in the first 3 weeks. Although they play Minn this week, they've got Carolina and NO coming up


and, well, this:

It's going to be a crap shoot every week.

[dhawkeye1980]

Best bet IMO for def scores are
KC
Detroit
Eagles

KC seems to be another sure start every week. Det has back to back def scores and are registering sacks/turnovers but let opponents score. Same with eagles. ROS after PIT games jags have the best schedule but seem to be hit or miss

[Murph0408]

yes. burfict is back.
other ideas -
Packers at home w/ short week vs Bears. I know Bears just had a big W but the short week would favor the Pack at home IMO.
Falcons home vs Bills, Bills never scare me

Ive got jags v jets. Prob gonna screw me tho

[dhawkeye1980]

Anyone else think chi defense could give GB trouble? Their defense is pretty damn good and GB does give up 5th most points to defenses

I'd always be hesitant to play any defense against Rodgers. Rodgers can go off for 400yds/4TDS/35+ points any week.

[dhawkeye1980]

Lions v vikes? I know everyones high on keenum after last week but TB had like 5 starters out and det def has played pretty well w sacks and turnovers.
