seh2000 5 Posted October 5, 2018 Are you buying into the hot Chiefs offense to a point you are considering benching the Jags? To be honest I am considering but my only option would be KC. Hearing it may be very sloppy at Arrowhead too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 5, 2018 You dont start defenses vs the leagues hottest QB who has yet to throw an int. Drop someone and pick up a fill in. Then watch as that team gets rolled and the Jags D outscores them by a couple points anyway and you remember overthinking in FF is pointless. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
polecatt 403 Posted October 5, 2018 I have benched them for the 49ers in two leagues and the Chargers in another, It's probably best to dodge the Chiefs for the time being Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FFer 11 Posted October 6, 2018 i've benched them. Going to stream with Carolina. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaChup 154 Posted October 6, 2018 The only way I'm not starting the Jags defense is if somehow Eli Manning gets added to the squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TennisMenace 156 Posted October 6, 2018 F the Jags defense. Mahomes will own them. I’m a believer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SenatorRock 708 Posted October 6, 2018 My league must use an odd defense scoring method because the Jags are 15th and have half as many points as da Bears at #1. Very unimpressed so far but I am too lazy to stream defenses and figure at some point they will start forcing turnovers. I will be starting them against KC.

kilroy69 994 Posted October 7, 2018 I would stream a d this week. Pahomes has still not hit his stride yet this year. One thing or another has stopped him from just going apeshit. The 6 td game could be nothing if he gets into a real shootout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seh2000 5 Posted October 7, 2018 Could pickup the JETS vs Denver this week and dump KC and bench Jags? Or just play the Jags in what can be a wet game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weepaws 2,460 Posted October 14, 2018 Another reason why one should never reach for a def. Many did reach for the Jags def. Stream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jrbdmb 28 Posted October 15, 2018 Another reason why one should never reach for a def. Many did reach for the Jags def. Stream. Crazy part is Dallas seemed to be a worthless offense you could stream DSTs against. But today the Jags make them look like Super Bowl contenders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted October 15, 2018 Heck, I picked up Houston and Buffalo D off waivers to start in a couple of leagues. Very happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 15, 2018 Crazy part is Dallas seemed to be a worthless offense you could stream DSTs against. But today the Jags make them look like Super Bowl contenders. Right, no question if the Jags where available playing the Cowboys I would have taken them. FF at its best. But it’s also the reason why I don’t chase a def in the draft. Always my second to last pick just before a kicker. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seafoam1 1,879 Posted October 15, 2018 Another reason why one should never reach for a def. Many did reach for the Jags def. Stream. It's easy to just keep saying 'stream'. The tough part is actually picking the good defense to play each week. And another factor in all of this is that other teams in people's leagues own defenses, so..... all of the considered top defenses are taken. What is with people just saying stream them? You guys must play in leagues that either have 0 bench spots or only have 4 teams in them. If you are in a real league, do you seriously just want to stream the bottom third of the defenses every week in hopes one of them actually only allows 28 points instead of 40? Good defenses have off days. But I would still bet on the Jags, the Bears, the Cowboys to finish the year near the top. Time will tell. And of course, you don't watch football, and you probably don't play fantasy football, so no matter...Just keep commenting on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 15, 2018 Bears def was a team I picked up by streaming them. So it indeed works and works really good. Come on now how happy can you be with the Jags def that ranks about 20 in ff points and the cowboys that rank even lower. Not so much huh? I wont waste a higher draft postion for a postion that I can easly fill during the season, some fool is bound to drop a good def and or one will develop that I can pick up. Hey good luck this ff season. And thanks for the reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pee-diddy 27 Posted October 15, 2018 Anyone care to dissect what the problems are with the JAX DEF? Thought they'd be top 3, top 5 at worst. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Texas10 15 Posted October 15, 2018 I can't comment on the defensive problems but the Jax offense is pretty bad right now. Not an excuse for their D but definitely not helping anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 15, 2018 Everyone thought they would be a top five def. That’s why so many reached for them. And agree their offense doesn’t help them out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TBayXXXVII 2,117 Posted October 15, 2018 I will be dropping them this week if a better option is available. My league has smart people, so no one jumped on them early. I took them in the 14th round, 3 rounds before another defense, mainly because I was hoping to be able to avoid streaming defenses. Looks like I'll be streaming after all.

I haven't watched any of their games so I don't know if it is personnel, game plan, injuries, or what. Hopefully someone who has kept up with them can chime in. At this point in the season is it likely they will turn it around? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pearmiser 3 Posted October 16, 2018 Watching as well. Looking to pick up the chargers for next week. Are the Jag's startable at this point? -1 point last week almost cost me a win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
weepaws 2,460 Posted October 16, 2018 Vs Tenn plus the Chargers will be a tough home. Great stream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
