Week 17 defense/special teams dilemma

[DanXIII 8]

My money league counts week 17 for some stupid reason, so I have to field a team if I want to win (currently running 4th, 55 pts out of first, points league, no H2H).

 

My two team defenses are Baltimore (vs Jacksonville) and Green Bay (vs. Detroit). Do I start Green Bay out in the cold against a hapless dome team looking for its first win of the season? Or do I go with Baltimore, who has one of the best D's in football and who still has something to play for against a better (than the Lions, anyway) Jacksonville team?

 

What say you?

i'm leaning toward starting Baltimore. just because the lions scare me this week, they'll be pulling out all the stops to win 1. jax has a few playmakers, but balt should contain them.

 

please help with mine:

I would go with Baltimore for sure. They will play like any other week, and although GB will probably have a good week, you have to roll with Balt.

 

Indy's D scored 14 points against Jax last week, and the Ravens D is much stronger then Indy's.

I like GBs chances at a few turnovers this week, but Baltimore's, D and special teams is just head and shoulders above the Pack. They are a threat for Return TDs,a pick-six or a shutout any given week.

 

As long as the weather isn't bad, I think Detroit will score on GB. They are desperate for a win, and I think they will play as good of a game as they have all year. It'll still be just bad enough to lose, but I think they'll score nonetheless.
