Team Def and Tight End decision

[tropicalsun]

Would you start Seattle's defense against the Redskins or the 49ers defense against the Ravens?
Would you start Antonio Gates against Denver or Gonzales against Minnesota?

Thanks!

I don't think you can sit the 49ers defense, they have been studly this year. They haven't given up a rushing score in 10 weeks I think; however, that probably changes this week. Nevertheless, the Ravens shouldn't be a daunting task for the niners. While Atlanta DOES look Gonzalez' way in the redzone, I'd go with Gates. He is poised for a big day, and I think Rivers looks to him early and often. Gates, for me, has the most upside.

Great Reply! Thanks.
