Whatcha got?

Worst for total points allowed?

Passing yards?

Rushing yards?

Aside from Dallas, of course. Hehe

 
Atlanta is the first one that comes to mind after Dallas.

Arizona should take a big step back.

Miami looks problematic as well.

If the Jets corners aren't healthy they look to have issues too.

Indy should be pretty bad too.

Chicago can't be near that bad again, can they?

Sleeper bad defense - Pittsburgh.

 
The DAL performance in PS week 1 still bears mentioning, allowed 14/16/243/1 (TD)/0 (int) passing to SD.

I'd say the Raiders - they have personnel challenges plus their offense should struggle again, giving lots of opportunities to opposing offenses.

 
Other than Dallas, Oakland could struggle.

After that I'd say The Cowboys,Dallas,Jerry Jone's Team and The Cowboys.

They are bad.

 
The Steelers defense was pretty awful last year fantasy wise. They have gotten a lot younger and faster on defense this year which is good but the inexperience could mean trouble.

Definitely a defense to avoid until they can show otherwise.

 
Oakland has a ton of new parts, but don't be so sure they will be that bad. Their front seven talent is dramatically improved from last season and they have a defensive-minded head coach. That said, their secondary is still highly suspect and well, they are still the Raiders.

The entire NFC East imo

Agree here. I'd almost say it's worth it just to target players in the NFC east due to the amount of shootouts that we may see from that division. The one hiccup though is that they games against the NFC west as well...

 
Might want to throw in the Texans. Lots of talent but if the offense is as stinko as we saw week 1 of PS it is going to be facing a very large task.

Just curious, why will AZ take a big step back?

Last year losing Horton that might have made sense, what about now? They've added yet another secondary starter in Buchanon.

if we're talking about worst defenses, i'd have to disagree with several on your list.

no Washington or Dansby. Honey Badger still recovering from injury.

I don't think Arizona or Miami belongs on the list. Miami has a ton of talent on D (especially up front) and the secondary should be a little better than last year, imo. They gave up a lot of yards last year, but still managed to allow the 8th least points in the NFL (20.9 ppg allowed). I think they'll be a little better this year. If you're looking for a high scoring fantasy D, it probably won't be them, but I don't think they'll be an easy match up for offensive starters in 2014.

 
Miami probably has the worst lb corps in the league, their veteran safety is suspended four games and coming off an inconsistent season, the other one is always hurt, Cortland Finnegan sucks. there isn't anything special on the line outside of Wake, and if they start off slow (I think they will) I think this whole team could fall apart. Ton of pressure on Lazor and Tannehill to get this to work fast.

 
While the NFC East Ds are looking below average to date I would be looking to draft players from those teams since they should be in catch-up mode all game long. Of course Eli looks lost and badly missing throws, RG3 is still limping, and Romo and his back took some big hits this week,

 
Starting to get the feeling that between Haslett's lousy blitzes and the Redskins' newfound offense driving teams to push it upfield, the Skins will be involved in a few shootouts this year.

Not to mention that almost half their games are against the Cowboys, Eagles, and Giants. The Skins might be fantasy gold this season.

That entire division should be shootout city. People that drafted accordingly will be rewarded in the upcoming months.
