    Rams DST or Falcons DST

    Totally whiffted on not playing the Browns. Planned on starting them all week and then got cold feet.

    Rams vs Jags
    or
    Falcons vs Jets

    Basically either fading Gabbert or Geno on the road. Both of these defenses are trash, but the matchups look like gold. Jets likely to be without both starting WR's Holmes and Hill. Jags could be w/o Cecil Shorts and just traded away their OT Eugene Monroe, but Blackmon is back. Kind of leaning Falcons here at home, but a little worried that Jets will run all over that soft Falcons front 7.

    I'm going with Falcons. Geno is good for a couple turnovers, and hopefully one results in a TD.

    Geno is getting worse by the game. he will throwup some prayers and fumble once so the falcons should do alright

    I'd go Rams. Jax hasn't been close to a competent offense, the Jets have had a couple of decent days.

    I'm in the same predicament and leaning ATL (more so for the INT's Geno will throw)

    Also ATL more likely to score defensive TD

    I went with Rams. Wouldn't have mattered either way since Romo got me 50. But yeah, Falcons DST won't be on my radar anytime soon.

    Going to try to pick up the Bengals if they clear waivers this week.

    My god they looked terrible, the Falcons that is. I was up 1.98 points going in, and was thinking of benching them. But my luck, I would of got a stat correction and lost.

    Then I was worried they were going to get minus points on D.

    My fantasy season has went bad so far, but I got the win last week. 1-4 in my money league. Top 5 scoring team too, so the roster is good. Just bad match ups.

    Bengals are owned. So I have to sniff out a Defense this week. Vikings maybe?

    Damn, Bengals DST got scooped up on waivers. This is a tough week to stream defenses. Most of the good matchups are by teams that are owned throughout the year (Broncos, Seahawks, Texans, KC, etc.). Probably the worst week for streaming DST's so far this season.

    I've narrowed my list down to:

    Steelers
    Browns
    Lions
    Vikings

    Think I'm just going to wait til gameday and see the megatron news. If he doesn't play, I'll play Browns in a heartbeat. Got a feeling Steelers can shut down Geno and that Jets offense. It's funny how everyone jumps on the Jets bandwagon after they beat an awful ATL team. Steelers haven't been good this year, but I like their chances coming off a bye against a rookie QB.

    That is the exact reason I stole pittsburgh before it got mixed with the waivers. Because they were on the bye week they were free agents on monday i hope my clever move can pull of 10 pts plus this week im 4-1 and don't want to lose momentum

    I picked up the Vikings, but considering Steelers too. Geno will come back to earth.
