Young_Grasshopper 0 Posted November 7, 2006 Things look pretty solid for me to make it to the playoffs, but of course, then it gets more serious. Has anyone started thinking about fantasy Ds that have a cake playoff schedule? Right now I'm riding New England, which has been good for me the past couple games. They play DET, @MIA, HOU, @JAC in our playoff weeks. I can see room for improvement though. Any thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sly poppa 0 Posted November 7, 2006 NE or JAX look good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swirvenirvin 25 Posted November 7, 2006 KC and Jax would be nice to have if you can hold onto 2 They match up perfect if one has a tough opponent Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
omarkal 0 Posted November 7, 2006 Pitts D plays Balt and cleve twice, plus Bucs. I think they have a great schdual rest of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gobuckeyes 0 Posted November 7, 2006 Good to decent defenses with good schedules weeks 14-16 Balt (KC, @CLE, PIT) NE (@MIA, HOU, @JAX) PIT (CLE, @CAR, BAL) BUF (@NYJ, MIA, TEN) MIA (NE, @BUF, NYJ) That's pretty much the order that I see them. Basicly the only upgrades you could make would be Balt, Chi, or maybe Pitt. Denver has a decent but not great schedule. I would stay put. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unclemercy 51 Posted November 7, 2006 okay, you got on your laughing pants? i'm going with the detroit lions... and won't be contibuting much to this thread but will be back come new years to take my lumps... whether it be in gold or to the cranium. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
einstein2u 0 Posted November 7, 2006 KC and Jax would be nice to have if you can hold onto 2 They match up perfect if one has a tough opponent week 14 baltimore at KC....think that is a good matchup??? leaning NE/JaX Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zaurg 0 Posted November 7, 2006 After trying to switch back and forth and make good matchup FA pickups for the first half of the year... I've now learned to STICK WITH YOUR STUDS. Who cares about matchups (aside from a few exceptions... such as starting a defense playing INDY, don't do it) With that said... I'm really not crazy about either of my week 16 options. Maybe I'll pickup KC or ARI wk15 option1 JAX @TEN wk15 option2 SD vs KC wk16 option1 JAX vs NE wk16 option2 SD @SEA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COACHG137 0 Posted November 7, 2006 What about Minny ? wk -15 vs Jets wk 16 - vs GB THIS IS OUR PLAYOFF AND SUPER BOWL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ajmplaya69 0 Posted November 7, 2006 I dont think minny at GB is a viable option. I got NE for Week 15 and as for Week 16 im tore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

swirvenirvin 25 Posted November 8, 2006 week 14 baltimore at KC....think that is a good matchup??? leaning NE/JaX You are correct on that, but I am looking at teams that might be available on the WW Here's the breakdown from week 10 on Wk 10 KC vs. @Mia = pretty good Jax vs. Hou = very good Wk 11 KC vs. Oak = must play Jax vs. NYG = play KC vs Oak Wk 12 KC vs. Den = not so great Jax vs. @ Buf = ok start Wk 13 KC vs. @ Clev = must play Jax vs. @ Mia = pretty good play Wk 14 KC vs. Balt = not a great play Jax vs. Ind = not good play Green Bay, Seattle and Cincinatti all have good mathcups and should be availble up to wk 13 Wk 15 KC vs. @SD = don't play Jax vs. @Ten = good play Wk 16 KC vs. @Oak = must play Jac vs. NE = avg play So overall the next few weeks if you can have both of these teams who may be avail on the waiver wire.. I know KC is in a few of mine playing Oak twice helps.. Wk 14 = not so good Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jgcrawfish 232 Posted November 8, 2006 Thank me when you win your league...the answer to the question is: pickup anybody playing Oakland. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Niners_fan 0 Posted November 8, 2006 Pitt D is a bust this year and I've always loved them for fantasy D. Their pass d is horrendous and gets torched most games. Cornerbacks are too small. Minnesota D is a pretty good option and KC a few weeks as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OD99 0 Posted November 8, 2006 I dont think minny at GB is a viable option. I got NE for Week 15 and as for Week 16 im tore. As in you can't get Minni or you dont' think that is a good option? Minni against the Pack is a good option - they give up sacks and turn the ball over a lot - what more could you want? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swirvenirvin 25 Posted November 8, 2006 who do i drop to pickup KC defense, Galloway or Atrain ? No clue without seeing the rest of your rosters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Young_Grasshopper 0 Posted November 8, 2006 You have 4 weeks of playoffs? Yup, two weeks per round, total the points over the two weeks to decide who wins. After trying it both ways, I definitely prefer the two week structure because it does a better job of demonstrating the better team as opposed to the team with the good matchups and lucky plays.

Stifler 2 Posted November 8, 2006 I just dumped the ATL and NYG defenses for JAX and KC. Their schedules work well together...especially weeks 15 and 16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stosher1 0 Posted November 8, 2006 KC and Jax would be nice to have if you can hold onto 2 They match up perfect if one has a tough opponent Jax has been my D all year - been a rollercoaster and I'm leaning toward picking up KC or Buf for playoffs. Both are available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
