rsureck Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Colts. No doubt. Starters will only come out if they are well ahead. See mine. rsureck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darin3 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Colts. No doubt. Starters will only come out if they are well ahead. 1220315[/snapback] Gotta agree. The Packers' D is horrible. Colts have been one of the best... and this'll be a hugh game for them in the dome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whodey Posted December 17, 2005 Author Share Posted December 17, 2005 what about the two starters that are out? The Ravens have the 3rd worst O in the league and they rely on the run. The Pack are great against the Run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whodey Posted December 17, 2005 Author Share Posted December 17, 2005 No.............I just think forcing Kyle Boller to pass....might lead to a pick or two and possibly a Defensive score.......but I do see your point.......I think I might be over analyzing this one.

Taylor should start. They're at home. You're over-analyzing big time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rew70 Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 (edited) what about the two starters that are out? The Ravens have the 3rd worst O in the league and they rely on the run. The Pack are great against the Run. 1220323[/snapback] Let's look at some numbers before we go and call GB a great run defense. They let the Lions go 31/129/0 last week, and have have given up and avergage of 122.7 yards per game, that's good enough to be 24th in the league. However they have only given up 6 TDs on the ground, which is tied for 3rd in the league. So while this group is hard to push it in against, they have been giving up the yards. Just under 150 per game over the last 3 weeks. That's not a great defense. Go with the Colts this week. Let's see some numbers on Indy. They have a top 10 rush defense this year giving up under 97 yards per game and they are tied with GB giving up only 6 TDs on the ground this year. Last week they held JAX to 23/74/1 and have only givven up 66 yards per game over the last 3 weeks. That, on the other hand, is a great defense.

tonorator Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 i'll go the other way and say green bay. indy can be scored on and san diego will be playing hard after the loss to miami. baltimore is so inept on offense and even if green bay can be run on, both jamal and chester have been useless. anytime boller puts it in the air, it's a free ball.

Ralph Furley Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 You have to stick with the Colts, as bad as the Ravens offense is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yo mama Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I have to agree: Colts. The Pack have been a decent fantasy DEF over the last 6 weeks in my leagues. But they lack the upside the Colts bring to the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chires Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 Colts have been pretty consistent and is the better start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
