WHAT DEFENSE TO PICK UP??...WHIR

[TheBull]

the game will be a short game, carolina will run the hell out of the ball with Williams and Stewart even if Moore does start. I think both backs get 100 yds in a ROUT. 24-10

N.E.'s matchup this week is at least decent, I mean, the Jets couldn't do jack against Balt, and the Pats were suprisingly good against Cincy....and....
N.E. has a fantastic matchup next week at home against Buffalo! Nice two game stretch right there. I picked them up myself earlier tonight.

NE vs BUF is a must start FOR SURE. I said i like CAR short term. This week only...Jets/NE always play tough and i dont think NE can stop the run nearly as well as BALT. Balt is one of the best D's in the NFL. NE is in the bottom half....

Pats D on the road, not very good against the run....I dont LOVE the matchup with LT/Greene.
KC is tough to play at home, would never start that D on the road.


To me it is pretty easy, Carolina gets turnovers and TB really has no offensive threats..I am starting Carolina without hesitation

but carolina looked horrible against a offense they killed the year before in the ny giants, and they are now without julius peppers, against a tampa bay team that has picked up a few playmakers in karrum higguns(expect them to use him more this week) and mike williams, and josh freeman has another year under his belt, he was thrown to the wolves in his first year last year, and he came around twords the ed of the season.

plus ne's defense looked very good against the running game of cinncy last week, and if jets can't force the run sanchez could be good for one of his 4 int games.

think your right about kc, they are much better at home, and the weather and atmosphere could have been a big part of why they looked so good, but they might be playing delohomme or a rookie.

if u want to roll the dice with NE this week, GO FOR IT, you know you will have an automatic START next week vs BUF. I just think Carolina is going to control the ball and eat clock....TB's offensive possesions will be limited and when they have to throw the ball, bad things happen.

i don't really know, just getting some discusiion going, see if anything clicks in my head lol.......if carolina can get a lead, i agree, their defense could put up some points, i just watched the game against the giants though, and they looked bad defensivly, and they also looked terrible throwing and running the ball, maybe that could be due to giants defense improving? i don't know...but carolina can't afford to start 0-2, and expesially can't afford to lose to tampa bay at home...i might go with carolina, becase the one thing they did do good last week was stop the run.

yea ne is a easy start next week, i agree.

two other teams had waiver proritys higher them me to get carolina and kc defense.

so, who would ya'll take between tenn and ne?
