Anyone benching the Saints D/ST this week? (2 Viewers)

[Man In The Box]

I've noticed that there are a few defenses on the WW in my leagues that haven't been very productive, but have juicy matchups this week. Is anyone here brave enough to sit a top D/ST this week in favor of a less productive unit with a better matchup?

I have the Saints and Seahawks. I'm leaning towards starting Seattle at home against TB. I have Romo as my starting QB, which is also factoring into my decision. Thoughts?

I've been riding them all year, but lately they've underperformed.

I grabbed the Houston Texans defense and are starting them against the Rams this week. If I win I'll worry about which one to start then, or add a FA Defense...

Plus it helps that I've got Schaub and AJ going too (with Arian Foster against me), so the game should be interesting for me at least.

I might be benching them and starting the HOU defense this week. NO has been giving up lots of points lately - to less than stellar teams. I just don't know that I can trust them against Romo and the crew.

I thought about picking up another defense but that thought did not last long.

The Saints are home on a Saturday night and the Superdome will be rocking. Also the Cowboys are in their December swoon, Romo has been known to choke under pressure and the Saints are really gunning to go undefeated.

The Saints got me here and I like the situation this week.
