the up-n-coming Colts defense takes on the Gordon-less Chargers , indy playing with a chip on their shoulder in the 'you're gonna suck without Luck' era. Colts could be playing inspired football this weekend with people telling them that they've gone from a potential 12-4 team to an 8-8 team..they might come out hot as hell both offensively and defensively
Jets' defense vs a suspect Bills offense with J. Allen
Vikings will crush Atl
Seahawks
Lions
Eagles will stifle the hapless Redskins

I just want to have someone talk some sense into me lol.
Am I crazy to question CHICAGO D tonight @ home against Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers and look to bench them in favor of a waiver wire pick up in CLEVELAND or NYJ? Short bench of 4 means dropping a potential bye week / flex / starter. That alone should deter me.
Da Bears
Edit: Add DALLAS as a waiver wire pick up D

Those are two good options and Bears lost Fangio. Not saying whether you should or shouln't , but it isn't crazy.

Opposing defenses scored the 13th most fantasy points against the Packers last year despite Rodgers only throwing deux interceptions. And they are instituting a new offensive system. I currently have my Bears d benched in a couple of leagues but I'm starting to second guess myself.

The 10th or 11th round is backup territory. I drafted handcuff running backs before the Bear d without any intention of starting them week 1.

Hey, huge Bears fan here and I took them first. The Philly match up against Washington was just too good to pass up. I'm sure I'll start the Bears in 90% of my games.

Going to drop Dallas for Denver, despite the first 3 weeks for the Cowboys. With the AB mess, an already good 1st week match up turns juicy, and Denver might just become a sack machine with Fangio.

I think that's what I am leaning towards, as other options like SEA aren't available.
I have the Pats but this does not seem like the week to start them, and Jets D is underrated.

I took them and picked up Denver D with last pick. Like the former’s early schedule, like the latter’s pass rush
The Chargers are a good defense and Jacoby Brissett is obviously no Andrew Luck, but he has had pretty much the entire month of August taking starting reps with the first team offense. The following was tweeted around August 26:

Drafted NE for the run from weeks 2-7, but decided to bench them tonight because SEA was on the wire and too tempting.

Bills were not available for me otherwise I definitely would have considered them. This week, I think they are as good as an option as the Jets, I just think the Jets are going to win this game -- slightly more points/yards make them the slightly better option this week IMHO.
Bills are one of the more underrated Ds and if they fall to the wire, would definitely consider them as a streaming option through this season.

Ended up dropping them for SEA ugh. That being said they looked legit. Gonna bid healthy amount on them.

Yeah that’s gonna leave a mark.Mystery Achiever said:I benched New England for Cleveland.

I thought I could be a single Team DEF kinda guy, but playing matchups is too enticing. Dropped LAC for NE based on their schedule right now. Plus NE Def looked more than solid last night.

Philly defense was horrible vs Keenum and Company.

They got dropped by me
Bottom line: Cleveland and the Jets are always going to be Cleveland and the Jets.
This team got hyped up all year and they end up getting crushed at home by a miserable offense in the Titans. Meanwhile, the Jets also have been hyped a lot in NY as up and coming and they lay an egg and blow the game vs the Bills also at home.

Cowboys did nothing special yesterday on D

Pats put up some nice points based on only giving up 3 but only recorded 1 sack and 1 turnover. I know they have a dream schedule coming up but do I go after them or stick with the Seahawks?
