They play so much nickel D and they don't have the personnel to really go big in the middle. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bills sound like an awfully fun pick to laugh at your league mates in the face and look like a pro if it goes right, or get tomatoes thrown at you if it goes terribly wrong. My biggest fear is that the Bills themselves can’t score points or move the ball on offense and that doesn’t set up well for their defense. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think they are overall the better option talent-wise of all those teams, agree? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would agree. Denver has done NOTHING to earn their High projecting this week and I’m not about to mess with the mustache of Gardner Menshew. Don’t need any bad juju on my team. My sneaky pick of the week that I may roll with is KC @ Detroit. KC put up 5 and 11 points in their first two away games before facing a good team in Baltimore. I’m not convinced Detroit is a good team, and Stafford always has a game where he gets a little wild with the football. If KC gets up big early which they easily could, Stafford might get a little loose with the ball. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bolldpt 54 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 What are thoughts on the Jets? Seem like a solid unit points wise and the schedule looks pretty decent. I've been rolling with the Titans but jets seem like they have the better schedule 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big Blue Wrecking Crew 196 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 What do folks think about the SF D? Have DAL and may hold onto them vs NO based on what is on my WW. In projecting, here are the matchups going forward Wk 5 - SF vs CLE WK 6 - DAL @ Jets WK 7 - SF @ WASH WK 8 - SF vs CAR WK 9 - DAL @ Giants OR SF @ ARZ WK 10 - DAL vs MIN OR SF vs. SEA Wk 11 - SF vs ARZ Week 12 is where the wheels fall off, as DAL @ NEP and SF vs GBP, but that is not a bad stretch if SF D is for real.

That one guy 2,162 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 The Steelers got swiped before me on waivers. I’m down to CAR, DAL, or INDY as a streamer over currently held Bills; leaning CAR just for sack potential as those are scored quite favorably in this league Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rockaction 26,473 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Went BUF over a bunch of decent choices because I want that D right now. I'll take the hit against the NEP and maybe even get lucky. Edited September 28, 2019 by rockaction 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Charlie Harper 1,222 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Steelers or Denver? The Den/Jax has a O/U of 38 and PIT/CIN is O/U 45. I think Minshew is legit, but is this the week DEN finally gets some sacks? PIT doesn't look like a very good defense...but seems like Dalton is a good source of potential INTs.

That over under of 38 is nice to know. Im still struggling to feel comfortable starting Denver.

Same boat watching Dallas flail around for weeks and now I’m here. I’m tempted to roll Bills but that feels “cute” and could see it blowing up in my face. I’ve said it upthread but KC seems like an interesting play of the lions get behind early and try to play catch-up. But that might blow up on me as well. Still sitting with Denver starting but haven’t locked it in by any means. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
