pedroz13 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 First round of playoffs.....which D to go with? I've saved Baltimore to use during the playoffs but DEN has played solid lately. Standard D pts, 1 pt. per sack, 2 per turnover, bonus points for shutout, holding opposing team to low points, Defense/Special Teams TD = 6 pts. DEN @ BUFF (QB situation in the air between Losman and Holcomb) BALT vs GB Thanks, I'll answer yours if you got one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gdawg Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Tough, tough call. I think I'd go Denver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iliketiki Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Tough, tough call. I think I'd go Denver. 1214935[/snapback] I disagree - not tough at all. I'd definitely go Denver. Buffalo offense has been sputtering and, though I haven't sen the weather report, I doubt the conditions in Buf will be offense-friendly. Meanwhile, Baltimore D is just not elite anymore. It wouldn't surprise me if GB scored 30+ on them (though Farve is good for at least 1 pick) ... Since you said you'd answer mine: Sea D (at Ten) or Jax D (vs. SF) Thanks!

pedroz13 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 ... Since you said you'd answer mine:Sea D (at Ten) or Jax D (vs. SF) Thanks! 1215040[/snapback] Thanks....and I think you have to go with JAX D this week. I have held them in my other league due to their enticing playoff matchups. They are at home (I tend to go with home defenses in situations if at all possible, another reason I was thinking about BALT this week)...and Alex Smith could really have some trouble with that defense. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB isnt putting up 30 points against them this week, in case you havent noticed GB isnt elite anymore either. That being said, I would go with Denver...as I stated earlier.

Phat Rugby Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 As a McGahee owner, I would have to say Denver. Buffalo has been horrible this year and I see this week being the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chonchito Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 i'd probably go w/denver over balt, but would you start denver over carolina? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedroz13 Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 i'd probably go w/denver over balt, but would you start denver over carolina? 1215222[/snapback] I like Carolina now that the news broke that Brooks is being benched for Bouman. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acesfull Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 i would go with baltimore there only giving uo 70 yards rushing at home this season and farve has lost his magic but that saying its farve and might get lucky but dought it and bills throw better with holcomb and denver has lost a good corner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedroz13 Posted December 20, 2005 Author Share Posted December 20, 2005 Good thing starting Den over Balt didn't cause me to lose, would have been very painful watching the BALT game unfold the way it did with all those BALT D points. Lets try this again for Week 16 (Super Bowl for my two leagues), BALT at home vs MN or DEN at home vs OAK? Leaning towards BALT, although a lot of their D points came against Rodgers. Thanks...will answer yours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mojo chiefs Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I would go Denver against Raiders. I tried to pick up Denver for this game but they were gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenlight33 Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 I would go Denver against Raiders. I tried to pick up Denver for this game but they were gone. 1228281[/snapback] I would have to say Denver as well just based on the match up. I think that Denver is not as strong as they were in the beginning of the year, but Oakland will turn the ball over 3 times and L. Jordan is having an MRI so this game could be ugly. BTW, Denver is in a must win game to keep the #2 seed alive. Baltimore impressed me last night, and I think that they will do fine and it looks like Minnesota was pressing a little bit last week and they might be pressing even more this week so they could turn the ball over a few times but I still like Denver;s matchup better.

Glad it didn't cost me the game, that would have been painful. Thanks for the advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
