Sit/Start Week 11

[Terp]

I'm starting the Lions D today. I don't really think they'll be good, it's just that the Browns offense is completely pathetic.

Whoops, Browns have 24 points in the first quarter....story of my life

Yeah, I picked up the Lions D in two leagues. Ouch.

I considered it. I've been floating from one defense to the next the last several weeks, looking for vulnerable offenses. And for the most part I've been burned. Tennessee getting the two pick-6's in the last three minutes of their game last week was the exception.

I've been doing a decent job to this point. I've got two leagues where I'm playing matchups each week and I've done decently (including having Tennessee's D last week in both). I thought this week would be a pretty good bet despite the still-developing Lion defense, but apparently not.

The problem is when I grab the defense of a team that has a mediocre offense. Because inevitably their crappy QB will throw picks and put the defense in awful situations.

 

But it really is a crapshoot. I went with Philly's defense last night and it turned out to be a terrible play. Go figure. Staying with them at home against Washington next week though. That should be a good matchup.

I actually don't regret playing the Lions D at all. My other options were terrible (Falcons and assuming the Titans secondary gets beat up tonight) so it was a good risk. At least I still won my game.

Yeah, I usually try to find defenses that don't have awful offenses coupled with them, but that doesn't always work out.
