I've made a point of not drafting or picking up Jets, but this may be a good time.

This week for sure, especially is the rookie starts again.

I will pass on them ... they are about to implode with an immolation the likes of which NY sports hasn't seen in years.
For week 13 I am rolling Carolina@KC.
Hate taking the road team, but i will use them as the inly option i like on the wire this week ... will hold the Browns for week 14 home vs same KC Chefs.
I get 'em 2 weeks in a row.

hard to argue for NYJ. Just pointing out these match ups are tasty. trying to decide if NYJ is a better play then GB in these games. GB def is really struggling...
After a few weeks of success with the weekly D/ST waiver wire pickup, I finally got burned with the Cards yesterday. I actually thought about grabbing St. Louis instead, but talked myself into going with the home team.
I am looking to redeem myself with the Jets this weekend. Other options are the Bengals or possibly the Chargers.

I picked up Cincy last week and have been very satisfied. I'm riding them out.

Not sure if this will turn into the Week 13 defense thread but if it does I like the Bills. Their pass rush is starting to come on and the Jags had all kinds of problems trying to protect Henne yesterday against the Titans.

10 team leagueI noticed SD and NYG are on WWI have been rolling with HOU and have been very disappointed with them getting 4 pts this week and ZERO last week.SD has tough matchup week 10 vs CIN but weeks 14 @ PIT, week 15 vs CAR and week 16 @ NYJ. I maybtry to grab them and hold HOU for week 13 @ TEN and then drop b/c week 14 @NEP, IND and MIN.NYG looked awesome last night and seemed matchup proof with the way they played vs GB.Week 13@WAS. 14 NOS, 15@ATL 16@BALI like SD's matchup but NYG could be fine?'The_Fonz said:

Thanks to Plorflu in the Beanie thread for this link.
Arizona just lost their starting center.
That has got to be good news for this Jets team defense. 3rd string rookie QB and now the center goes down. This has week 13 juicy matchup written all over it.
For those in a desperate scenario to get into the playoffs it could be that extra couple of points that puts them over the top. If the Jets are going to win it's going to be with defense.

St Louis, they are starting to take to Fisher, his benching of a couple key rookies who both responded hard this past week, the RAMS, after SF, it's @Buf, MN

Agreed. I picked them up 2 weeks ago and have had 2 solid performances v. MIA and IND. Four December home games to follow--vs. Jags, hawks, Rams and Jets with a roadie at Miami.'packersfan said:

Did you guys not see the Jets completely demolished on thanksgiving? Wouldn't touch them at all. Just an awful team all over.
Teams that have trouble moving the ball on offense (NYJ, SD) create liabilities for their DST, especially when you combine that with turnover proneness.
With that said, SD has seemingly stepped it up lately, so I am looking at picking either them or the Bills up this week to pair with the Bengals for RoS.

It was the Pats. Two prior weeks they had respectable showings against Stl and Sea.

I'm actually contemplating picking up the Cardinals D because of this. Rams vs. 49ers and Chargers vs. Bengals just don't cut it.

Jets are tempting. I'll stick with the Denvers except week 15. I am leaning STL vs Minn.
Denver's not on my waivers, although I'm not sure I'd start them this week either vs TB.

hmmm. I'm going against Charles and I can easily see about 175 and a TD vs. that rush D. Will they even have to pass? Don't really love Carolina D this week. Hope I'm wrong.u must not watch kc much.

How'd Denver do?

Best balling the Bills and the Jets the next four weeks because the waiver wire shuts after this week. As mentioned, the Jets get AZ at home this week, and then SD at home week 16. Figure cold weather by then, and a west coast team that will be out of it traveling across the country to play the weekend before Christmas. (While scheduled for Sunday night, no way that doesn't get flexed out of that spot to earlier in the day.) Cold weather should also favor the Bills at home in Weeks 13 and 14 outdoors against southern and indoor opponents, but remember Week 15 is at the Rogers Center in Toronto.

Before the dismantling by the Patriots, the Jets had two good defensive performances. Good playoff schedule. I picked them up to compliment the Broncos.

Agree. I picked them up as well. Still holding Carolina from last week. Could also pick up Buffalo although I would have to drop someone like Lloyd or B Tate (who I am still holding as a lottery ticket). Cleveland does not excite me. They may get a couple sacks/turnovers this week but I think they might give up some points to the Raiders. Next week they play KC. Should be low scoring, but more conservative game will net fewer TO opportunities. Plus Charles could gash them, although their run D has been better the last couple weeks since Taylor and Rubin are finally both healthy.

I think the JAgs offense has been much improved with Henne in there. Bills defense wasn't that great to begin with. Risky play if you ask me.
packersfan

Jags' offense has been better with Henne but they gave up 7 sacks to the Titans last week. Bills have 7 sacks the last two weeks so they're starting to apply more pressure. They've also done a good job against the run the last two games. Bush/Thomas and Ballard all struggled against them. I think Henne will have success but I also think the Bills could get a nice amount of points this week. I also like them as a sleeper pick.

Cowboys versus eagles? Or too many injuries?

Joe McKnight is a good return man for the Jets.

People have made the playoffs this year in fantasy solely by grabbing the defense the Eagles play against for the past 5 weeks.
VikingFrog
Footballguy
Yeah, I played them against the Eagles two weeks ago and they got two TDs. I live in Cowboy land, but don't pay attention enough to know, but a friend has said they'd lost 5 starters on their defense and didn't know how they might be affected. How's there run D. Will the 1 week emergence of Bryce Brown continue against them?

Been rolling with the Pats. Week 16 NE @ Jax used to look great but now it has me somewhat guarded. I've been making plans for week 14-15 vs HOU & SF.I'm going with the Pats this week, CLE vs KC next week, and hope to get OAK (vs KC week 15) and Indy (@KC week 16) next and doing it early.The week 15 OAK matchup might be the only one that concerns me. The Raiders' D is so bad. They are dead last as DST in my main league, their one good week came against.... KC in Arrowhead (14 points).

Really warming up to the Bills this week.They played INDY indoors pretty well. Expected damage to be a lot worse.The last 3-4 weeks, the Bills D has improved.Now, a Jax team that may be feeling a little better than it should rides into Buffalo, where the forecast calls for precipitation and wind.The two best options I see this week on my wire are Carolina and Buffalo. Think I'm leaning Buffalo in a game where too many people get sucked into the Henne hype only to see it all blow up.KY
