What team do you guys think has the best D. I think it might be Phillie, Considering who they've played so far. What do you guys think? if you can, tell why.
Are you talking about NFL defense or FF defense?What team do you guys think has the best D. I think it might be Phillie, Considering who they've played so far. What do you guys think? if you can, tell why.
Tenn only gave up 32 points and 575 yds in 2 games vs. Indy last year. Granted one of those games was 22 points and 381 yds.... but that means the other was 10 points and 194 yds.Tenn has looked dominant...Interested in seeing them against Indy this year.

While reasonably healthy, its the Ravens.
Same here. They looked awful against a putrid Raiders' offense and that shouldn't happen to a great defense. They looked real ordinary in Week 2 against the Jags too.The Titans look to me to be the top fantasy defense right now.Really thought the Bills had a chance to be elite, but I'm not so sure.
Very..Best NFL defense - Tennessee, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo are above the rest in my eyes. Philly has a beatable secondary and their LB's are uninspiring, Baltimore's fun to watch but they're susceptible to the big play and without Kelly Gregg their run D is 'just good' instead of elite.Best fantasy defense - Kansas City's opponent
I've had the Car Def last 2 yrs and they are serviceable but not in the upper tier of ones that I would want. Consistent with a few pts a week but rarely go off!Is NE Def now not worthy of starting on a weekly basis? I new the O would suffer under Cassell but the defense has looked bad too.Thoughts on Carolina's D from a fantasy perspective?![]()
I was going to say something similar but substitute the word "Detroit's"As a Detroit homer, I enjoy employing this strategy in my "small potatoes league" where its just 10 of us childhood buddies with limited rosters. (There is always lots of defenses available on the WW.) I look to see who Detroit is playing the following week and pick them up for spot-plays. It really does work like a charm as the Lions give up A LOT of special teams TDs, sacks, and also INTs returned for TDs.Very..Best NFL defense - Tennessee, Pittsburgh, and Buffalo are above the rest in my eyes.

They also probably lead the NFL in INTs. I'd guess so, Finnegan has 4, Griffin has 2 or 3. The "less than 250 yards" seems high. I haven't looked yet this week. They only allowed 202 ypg after week 2 and just 8.5 points per game. Finnegan has a TD(back to that) and Haynesworth is arguably the best DT in the game. Did the Jags Gs get injured having to block him? Or was it just coincidence?Haynesworth missed time last year and they weren't so good without him, yet they still were around the 5th rated D for the year. 1 isn't a big jump considerring.Mentioned this once already but, their 2nd half performance was a thing of beauty. Kubiak had a good plan and the Texans were surprisingly able to run real well against them(105 rushing yards? 106? first half). It was as if it angerred them or hurt their pride. 2nd half was 2 INTs, TD, 10 yards rushing, forced fumble, 2 sacks, QB less than 50% passing, and a drive they stopped at the 2 yard line. Not many Ds could turn it on like that. To me, that was something great Ds do and I'm even more curious how they'll wind up.11 sacks, 5 turn overs, less than 10 points per game and less than 250 total yds per game allowed through 3 games is impressive.
