Anybody have the stones to start TEN defense? Over who? (1 Viewer)

Great matchup vs a NY Jets team at home but they have been terrible lately. Who's starting them in the playoffs? Over who?

 
Over Steelers and Texans.

I've kept them for just this week. Defense is all about match ups and this is a juicy one.

 
Normally I entertain all juicy defensive matchups and I've certainly been spot-starting a number of them against the Jets of late... but Tenny has consistently failed to show up most weeks even when they have a cake opposing offense to shut down. I wouldn't expect much from them here.

 
I picked them up the day after they blitzed the hell out of Big Ben, but they flatlined in their next two games. No pass rush at all and they can't stop the run. The Jets should be able to run on them and limit the turnovers, but you never know with Geno. I dropped Tenn after seeing how bad they looked last week.

 
Tenn is awful. Matchups are one thing, but they don't mean anything if the defense is awful. Jets are the better play against Tennis offense.

Yeah, like NO had a great match-up against Car last week.

I got bit in the ### by streaming D's this year. Either the D I wanted got scooped before me on a given week, or the D with a great matchup crapped the bed.

That being said, I had the Titans on my roster for this week & if I were still in it, I'd be playing them (although the Jets plan last week of barely throwing the ball may reduce their chances for INTs/sacks).

Thought really hard about grabbing them off the wire, but ultimately went with Packers instead. I like any matchup against the Jets where NY falls behind early and has to throw. Not sure that happens here.

 
Them or Cleveland and TB on wire as well. Based on recent performance I am leaning on the Browns and hope for an encore performance from earlier in the year.

 
I think I may actually start the Bills and hope. Ten is dead last in rush yards allowed in the second half of the season and have been getting beat consistently with the pass. Det's front 4 really threw off the Packers timing. I am going to hope the Bills get a td

 
I just can't bring myself to start the worst rush defense against the 2nd best rush offense. Not in the semi finals. Could prove to be the wrong call but it's easier to live with (I hope)

 
I am starting both jets and titans D in a couple fanduels

each offense is brutally bad
