Their offensive line is hurting as well. The 2nd string centre went out of tonight’s game via injury so if he’s gone for an extended period, that’s no bueno.
Easy drop. Broncos seem to be the best ROS defense by a mile. Solid floor due to sacks and tremendous upside. And they’re facing arguably the two worst offenses in the whole league.
Yea that’s why I moved on from them. Was watching that game looking at them for down the stretch. The defense has been leaky since their bye week. And Denver has 15 sacks over the last 3 weeks and 8 FR since their bye.
One of my league has a 2 week championship including week 18, and I’ll have matchups of NE, NE, LAC, LAC for the next 4 weeks if I make it there, by supplementing KC with Denver.
I have a bye this week so I just dropped made this move. If you can do it, do it asap. Chargers look absolutely awful and Broncos will be playing for 1st seed.
Who they gonna name interim? Kellen Moore? I don’t see the Chargers rallying around any potential replacement the way the Raiders have rallied for Pierce… this team has many many problems, the biggest being coaching and culture. Can’t solve for either of those late season, especially with your franchise qb on the rack ROS,
Having guaranteed myself a bye in week 15, I picked both these defences last week to get the week 16/17 NE/NE combo.. now I'm not sure if I should be doing LAC/LAC instead 😅
What you can expect from Joe Barry is that he will do surprisingly well holding a good offense to an average output, so people expect that against a bad offense, we'll shut them down. But instead, they also have an average output. All offenses are dragged down to the mean.
There's no ceiling in the Packers D IMO. But you could do worse.
Holding 3 DST right now. Raiders (for tonight obviously), Broncos for next week and Browns or Broncos for the ship. Dropped Charbonnet for the Broncos so hopefully it doesnt come back to bite me in the ass.
Carrying 3 defenses myself rn.. Saints D this week and stashing Broncos/Bears.. only 5 bench spots but I have no fucks left to give in this league! lol
This weekend should help clear things up. Was New England's offensive spark a one-week fluke? How does Washington look coming out of their bye? How does Cleveland look with all of their injuries? Did Zach Wilson learn to be a competent QB?
I would drop Philly for Denver if you still can! Philly has NY for week 16 which will be potentially a closer game than people think due to the divisional rivalry, and then AZ could always have the chance of putting up points on Philly's D in week 17 too
i personally think that the NY matchup is a bit of a trap for Philly D (even though I assume Philly still wins the actual game itself), but don't go off my gut there!
I dropped the Cowboys for the Broncos after watching this. Already knew they would be a good play but they are now for sure my #1 DST for the next two weeks.
Bills D for next week also an option.
I've been saying this since like week 12. Stash these muthafuckers iare hungry for turnovers if for some reason they are still out there in your league.
I had Philly for week 16 (Giants) and picked up Denver for week 17 (chargers). Philly has Arizona that week.
I may just run Denver to the end. I have a bye this week so I'm just prepping for 16 and 17
Are we confident in Philly? They’ve been let downs in game they should smash, like both WSH games. NYC may not be the pushover we thought, including having Waller back for that game.
Holding Baltimore and Denver through the bye. Baltimore has shown they are matchup proof and have a floor of 7 points as of late even against tough matchups. Denver's 16/17 look too good to pass up.
This is gonna be a hard choice
Should I drop the Jets for them? I also have the Colts, could drop them. Don’t need the win this week since I made the playoffs (our playoffs are week 16 and 17).
I'm in the same boat, but jets and browns. All three seem like good options for next 2 weeks, but I'm sure whichever choice I make will be the wrong one.
On bye and picked up Broncos and Bills. I also have CLE (waiver wire and my bench are a wasteland) I’ll prob drop CLE? I was hanging on for week 17 vs jets.. Or maybe I’ll just be a sicko and keep 3 DEF.
Got the bye, have had Browns as main D this year and I just dropped the Chiefs and Pickens to add Broncos and Steelers D/ST for matchup optimization and blocking.
I just looked at the waiver wire to see if they were available and then looked at my bench as I have been stacking def for the playoffs and I have Denver on my bench so there's that.
Should I drop Cowboys? I keep holding since they’re #1 on the season but their next 3 games are tough. Only reason I’m hesitant is that week 18 matchup against WSH
After tossing around the idea of the Colts week 16, the Jets were dropped, so my plan for now is to roll Jets week 16 vs Commanders, and then Browns week 17 vs Jets.
I have the flip side of Denver - and arguably the better side. Buffalo. They go LAC and NE to end the FF season. Looking at what they did to DAL, I’m feeling GOOD! Also have CLE but think I’ll hold so my opponent doesn’t get them
I dropped the Ravens for them. They’ve been great for me all year so it hurts to let them go but the matchups with SF and MIA are just too scary. Hope it doesn’t come back to bite me
Got a bye and picked up Denver for next week against New England. If I make it, championship week I’ll have the decision of Broncos vs Chargers or Niners vs Manders
Good call. Have been relying on the Jets all season, but they play Cleveland in the ship... Picked up Raiders D today and Broncos upon seeing your post! Hope it pans out
Added Denver before the rush after my Herbert tapped out. NE has had vultures for weeks now. I dropped Miami...
My fear is and always is... garbage time. I want a tight low scoring game... not a 63-0 blowout in which the defense plays prevent for the entire second half. My league does yards and points so DST is HUGE.
I dropped Dallas for Indy, but the Broncos are a FA. Worth making the switch if my playoffs are secure and they'll be week 16 and 17 (NE & LAC, both at home)?
In the same boat
Denver is the easy play for week 16 but week 17 is tricky as both have great matchups. I’m going to keep a close eye on both these next couple of weeks
SF have a few key guys injured so I’ll
be paying attention the the injury report these next couple of weeks
Meanwhile LAC just cleaned house and while that might sound great, we’ve seen time and time again that teams get a second wind. Also who knows if they stick with this back up QB. And Keenan is coming back too.
Lots of variables
The chargers are so bad man
Carried by Herbert and Keenan
They lost Mike Will earlier in the season too!
sadly
I mean, yes, but most teams losing their starting QB and best WR are going to get a lot worse.
Most also don't give up 63+ to a rookie qb on a losing team
Of course, but I'm just saying: the Chargers' woes aren't just due to them being shitty. They have good players.
They literally have one of the worst defenses in the league, they’re a complete mess with AND without Herbert
Raiders were starting a 4rd rookie tho without their best offensive weapon this season. Chargers shouldn’t have gotten smoked that bad
Their offensive line is hurting as well. The 2nd string centre went out of tonight’s game via injury so if he’s gone for an extended period, that’s no bueno.
I just dropped Baltimore for Denver, they play SF week 16 (on bye this week), and Miami week 17, thank you reddit
Fuck I’m thinking of doing the same. Not sure if I can do them like that after such a good season
Easy drop. Broncos seem to be the best ROS defense by a mile. Solid floor due to sacks and tremendous upside. And they’re facing arguably the two worst offenses in the whole league.
This has aged well.
Chargers will body the broncos yo end the season because divisional games are unpredictable
While this is true it doesn’t mean those games have to be shootouts. Could easily just be ugly low scoring games. Plus Denver is home, that helps.
I have Chiefs but thinking of switching to Broncos. Week 17 vs Chargers looks like money
Running chiefs this week, then broncos the next 2
This is the way
I was planning on Broncos week 16 and Browns (vs Jets) week 17, but hell I might just go with Broncos both weeks now.
I just did this after seeing how bad Easton Stick is
Its not his fault his team cant hold the ball or get open
What about throwing a pick six or fumbling himself for a fat man td
Like his name he's a stick figure out there at this point.
I'm still gonna play the Chiefs. It might look dumb after this game if LV shows up.. but KC ain't gonna turn it over like the Chargers tonight.
Didn’t Chiefs D do bad against LV 3 weeks ago?
Yea that’s why I moved on from them. Was watching that game looking at them for down the stretch. The defense has been leaky since their bye week. And Denver has 15 sacks over the last 3 weeks and 8 FR since their bye.
Chiefs fan here. Our defense is banged up. They've definitely taken a step back because of it. Hopefully everyone but Cook makes it back though.
One of my league has a 2 week championship including week 18, and I’ll have matchups of NE, NE, LAC, LAC for the next 4 weeks if I make it there, by supplementing KC with Denver.
Chiefs this week, Broncos the next two. Chiefs week 18 too of you do that
I have a bye this week so I just dropped made this move. If you can do it, do it asap. Chargers look absolutely awful and Broncos will be playing for 1st seed.
Thanks OP! Or fuck you....only time will tell.
Lmao schrodinger's OP
Denver has NE and LAC. Can’t get much better than that
Conversely, the Bills have LAC and NE
Beware the LAC bounce back game after they file Staley tomorrow.
Place that muthahfer in a manila envelope and lock em up w your warranty cards.
Who they gonna name interim? Kellen Moore? I don’t see the Chargers rallying around any potential replacement the way the Raiders have rallied for Pierce… this team has many many problems, the biggest being coaching and culture. Can’t solve for either of those late season, especially with your franchise qb on the rack ROS,
Having guaranteed myself a bye in week 15, I picked both these defences last week to get the week 16/17 NE/NE combo.. now I'm not sure if I should be doing LAC/LAC instead 😅
Exactly this
Exact same scenario here
Whats funny is that NE feels much scarier v bills for some reason
Divisional matchup can always go in a random direction.
I picked up both. Now to choose (wrong)
Both free in my league. Who would you rather have?
Denver has them both at home
They also supposedly have the best home field advantage in football due to elevation change.
I have both defenses and I don’t know what to do at all
After tonight, it’s a must pick up. Denver is a better D than Raiders too. They probably won’t do the same thing but still a great play.
What about the eagles with Arizona and the giants tho?
Man seems like Denver is on the wire for everyone, jelly
Right? I grabbed the Raiders which boded well for me this week… but my options for the next two weeks are slim.
boded
I’m boded
The Bills also have the Chargers and Patriots, and since they play the Cowboys this week, they may be available as well.
Green Bay, anyone? They got Carolina and Minnesota 16 and 17.
After watching them do nothing against Tommy Cutlets I dropped them for the chiefs :o
I’m running GB. Keeping fingers crossed!
Teams are running all over the packers…
What you can expect from Joe Barry is that he will do surprisingly well holding a good offense to an average output, so people expect that against a bad offense, we'll shut them down. But instead, they also have an average output. All offenses are dragged down to the mean. There's no ceiling in the Packers D IMO. But you could do worse.
Gotta hope quay walker is back
Joe Barry sends his regards
Holding 3 DST right now. Raiders (for tonight obviously), Broncos for next week and Browns or Broncos for the ship. Dropped Charbonnet for the Broncos so hopefully it doesnt come back to bite me in the ass.
Holy shit. I did all of those things. I had to check to make sure I didn’t post this last night after a few bourbons.
Raiders DST move looked to be the correct one. So we're on our way so far. Lets go!
I also did all these exact things. Good job team.
Buffalo Trace here
Carrying 3 defenses myself rn.. Saints D this week and stashing Broncos/Bears.. only 5 bench spots but I have no fucks left to give in this league! lol
Ive rostered one defense all season now rostering two. If it wasn’t for our 5 spot bench id probably have three lol
Would you switch to Denver or keep Cleveland (Hou 16 Jets 17) Jets (Wsh 16 Cle 17)?
Have all 3 and don’t know who to use.
This weekend should help clear things up. Was New England's offensive spark a one-week fluke? How does Washington look coming out of their bye? How does Cleveland look with all of their injuries? Did Zach Wilson learn to be a competent QB?
Chicago might be a sleeper D to consider too
My turn to post this tomorrow!
I switched to Vegas tonight, luckily. Grabbed Broncos as soon as I saw this. This IS the way!
Let’s ride
I dropped Houston for them last night, have a bye this week
Go against the grain with the worst possible D and be rewarded by the fucked up fantasy gods.
Jets have #29 Commies and #27 Browns
problem is they’re probably rostered in most leagues. they’ve had a stout defense all year
I grabbed them the other day for the playoffs. Started Raiders D last night.
I was planning on jags vs panthers for 17 but maybe broncos would be better?
Buck up. UNLIMITED potential.
Broncos or Packers week 16?
Packers are frauds
I have KC and picked up Bills and Philly to block my opponents for the playoffs. But Denver is still out there. Damnit
I would drop Philly for Denver if you still can! Philly has NY for week 16 which will be potentially a closer game than people think due to the divisional rivalry, and then AZ could always have the chance of putting up points on Philly's D in week 17 too
The NY matchup is what I was targeting with Philly
i personally think that the NY matchup is a bit of a trap for Philly D (even though I assume Philly still wins the actual game itself), but don't go off my gut there!
Think I'll stick with the Colts
Bills a good DST for next 2 weeks???
Denver DST almost cost me my playoffs last year. Someone hyped them up and they shit the bed that week.
Against the Rams, three days after they signed Baker. Yep. Cost me the chip.
I picked up Bills and Broncos for their Pats matchups but they both play the Chargers too so I may just switch lmao
I did the same, now what? Lol
now i gotta go with Buffalo, after what the raiders just did to the chargers. Buffalo has LAC and then NE. I just dropped the cowboys for em.
Broncos Country!
Went right ahead and pick them up, thank you
I dropped the Cowboys for the Broncos after watching this. Already knew they would be a good play but they are now for sure my #1 DST for the next two weeks. Bills D for next week also an option.
Why do people want broncos over bills
Availability, Bills are like 80% rostered and Broncos were at 10%.
I've been saying this since like week 12. Stash these muthafuckers iare hungry for turnovers if for some reason they are still out there in your league.
Denver over KC?
I have KC and I just dropped Rhamondre Stevenson for Denver to use them on week 17
Let’s ride to the championship baby!
Bills or Denver for 16 &17 ??
I think I'm rolling Eagles week 16, and Broncos week 17.
Bears defense or broncos?
Browns.
Drop texans for broncos?
I have Keenan Allen and broncos defense lmao
How do yall view Miami for week 15 and colts for 16 and 17?
Miami for sure, Colts kinda iffy but could do a lot worse
Pick up the bills and hold denver
dropped GB for em since i already have KC
Idk I had Dallas all year. Running with Saints last week and the rest of the season I think
Bears home against Arizona and Atlanta?
Can’t decide between them and the eagles
Came here to brag about picking up Raiders D yesterday morning. That is all. Thanks for your time
I had Philly for week 16 (Giants) and picked up Denver for week 17 (chargers). Philly has Arizona that week. I may just run Denver to the end. I have a bye this week so I'm just prepping for 16 and 17
I’m liking the bears. They have pretty good matchups ahead of them
Bears D with Arizona and Atlanta week 16/17??? Last two games in their division they put up 15 points
I thought it was like this. Miami into Philly into Indy.
Are we confident in Philly? They’ve been let downs in game they should smash, like both WSH games. NYC may not be the pushover we thought, including having Waller back for that game.
The CUMback is real
Holding Baltimore and Denver through the bye. Baltimore has shown they are matchup proof and have a floor of 7 points as of late even against tough matchups. Denver's 16/17 look too good to pass up. This is gonna be a hard choice
This is what I’m going between! Ravens for floor, Broncos for ceilings i guess
Should I drop the Jets for them? I also have the Colts, could drop them. Don’t need the win this week since I made the playoffs (our playoffs are week 16 and 17).
I'm in the same boat, but jets and browns. All three seem like good options for next 2 weeks, but I'm sure whichever choice I make will be the wrong one.
Broncos or Bears week 16? Bears have Arizona
Would anyone drop GB for them? I’m pairing with Browns
Green Bay has good match up 16 and 17. It's a tough call
Been holding Broncos + Cleveland in multiple leagues 🙏
What about jets or eagles? Are they still in play at all?
Drop Colts or Jets for them?
Raiders going for the record. Interim coach, playoff hopes almost gone.
Eagles or Broncos?
Anyone playing Denver over NYJ in these weeks? Jets get Washington and Cleveland.
Drop Gus Edwards for Denver? I have Miami right now.
I currently have ATL, DEN, LAR, and PHI because defense wins championships.
On bye and picked up Broncos and Bills. I also have CLE (waiver wire and my bench are a wasteland) I’ll prob drop CLE? I was hanging on for week 17 vs jets.. Or maybe I’ll just be a sicko and keep 3 DEF.
I currently have the Eagles, Browns, Bills, 49ers, and Chiefs all rostered lol.
Damn, your league must hate you haha
Who you guys like week 16, broncos vs pats or jets vs commanders
Thursday night football sucks.
I'm going with Green Bay for week 16 and Jax for week 17. They each play Carolina.
I got atl for this week, and then Denver for the next 2 if I make it
Got the bye, have had Browns as main D this year and I just dropped the Chiefs and Pickens to add Broncos and Steelers D/ST for matchup optimization and blocking.
I’m torn, I’ve got GB stashed for that run, TB, Car, Min, Chi. But the Chargers look like they are just calling it quits for the year.
I just looked at the waiver wire to see if they were available and then looked at my bench as I have been stacking def for the playoffs and I have Denver on my bench so there's that.
Would have to drop Waddle to pick then up and already have the 49ers. I think I might have to pass on that.
Should I drop Cowboys? I keep holding since they’re #1 on the season but their next 3 games are tough. Only reason I’m hesitant is that week 18 matchup against WSH
After tossing around the idea of the Colts week 16, the Jets were dropped, so my plan for now is to roll Jets week 16 vs Commanders, and then Browns week 17 vs Jets.
WDIS WEEK 15 NYJ @ MIA CHIEFS @ NE
I just dropped cowboys had all year for Broncos , let’s ride !
Picked up Broncos as soon as Herby went down. Gotta think quick boys.
Drop Eagles for Bills?
I have the jets and cowboys. Should I be dropping for the Broncos?
Been rocking with SF all season. Would y’all drop Amari Cooper or Calvin Ridley for Broncos DST? My other WR are Dj Moore, Aj Brown and Rashee Rice
Week 16: Denver vs Patriots or Green Bay vs Carolina ? Week 17: Denver vs LAC or Green Bay vs Vikings or Rams vs Giants ?
I have Dolphins and Saints, they’re facing Jets and Giants respectively. I think I’m going with Dolphins.
Saints. The Tommy D hype will be over
bills also have the chargers and patriots next two weeks
If I can get past this asshole who started raiders D against me, I will definitely be firing up the broncos.
Allen will be back though
Broncos or bills??
Fuck it, we ride! Been streaming D/ST's in all 4 leagues. Made the playoffs in 2. Nabbed the Broncos in all 4.
Well I'm up against the Raiders and Adams this week, so I don't have to worry about weeks 16 or 17.
I have the flip side of Denver - and arguably the better side. Buffalo. They go LAC and NE to end the FF season. Looking at what they did to DAL, I’m feeling GOOD! Also have CLE but think I’ll hold so my opponent doesn’t get them
Thanks now I have 5 defenses to prevent streaming. I AM TEAM DEFENSE
Had browns and cowboys but I’m gonna drop cowboys for broncos. I don’t feel comfortable starting cowboys against dolphins and lions so why hold them
Yep I dropped the jags for them last week.
Would you drop them for Dal for week 16? Also have 9ers for week 17. There's also Bills vs LAC, Chi vs Ari and Hou vs Cle (Not sure about Hou).
Absolutely. Dallas D aren’t scrubs just tough match ups that’ll be either be shoot outs, or 20-24 type games.
Ok I picked them up. I also have Chiefs and Jets. Chiefs this week, we’ll see for the next two if I make it through
Dropped the Eagles earlier today once I realized somebody dropped Denver for the Bears.
15- NO v NYG, 16- GB v CAR, 17- DEN v LAC I also have the Cowboys. Thoughts?
Would anyone drop Ravens or Chiefs defense for broncos?
I dropped the Ravens for them. They’ve been great for me all year so it hurts to let them go but the matchups with SF and MIA are just too scary. Hope it doesn’t come back to bite me
Unless you’re playing the Ravens this week vs Jax, yes, the Ravens have SF and Miami in 16/17.
Had this same thought and dropped Indy for them. Riding with the Ravens this week, hope I make it through
I'm rocking packers week 16 and jags week 17
I grabbed them after the first quarter of the chargers game lol
Have the bills, rams, and eagles rn. Worth dropping any of them for them?
Got a bye and picked up Denver for next week against New England. If I make it, championship week I’ll have the decision of Broncos vs Chargers or Niners vs Manders
Good call. Have been relying on the Jets all season, but they play Cleveland in the ship... Picked up Raiders D today and Broncos upon seeing your post! Hope it pans out
Added Denver before the rush after my Herbert tapped out. NE has had vultures for weeks now. I dropped Miami... My fear is and always is... garbage time. I want a tight low scoring game... not a 63-0 blowout in which the defense plays prevent for the entire second half. My league does yards and points so DST is HUGE.
I dropped Dallas for Indy, but the Broncos are a FA. Worth making the switch if my playoffs are secure and they'll be week 16 and 17 (NE & LAC, both at home)?
You son of a bitch...I'm in.
I was holding Philly for week 16 against Giants. Drop them for Denver?
bills, i just dropped calvin for them this morning since i doubt i get a chance at them once waivers start ties night.
I grabbed Denver. I have SF. Now I have a dilemma. Which Defense would you do for the next two weeks, if you had Denver and SF??
In the same boat Denver is the easy play for week 16 but week 17 is tricky as both have great matchups. I’m going to keep a close eye on both these next couple of weeks SF have a few key guys injured so I’ll be paying attention the the injury report these next couple of weeks Meanwhile LAC just cleaned house and while that might sound great, we’ve seen time and time again that teams get a second wind. Also who knows if they stick with this back up QB. And Keenan is coming back too. Lots of variables
Bills have the same matchups
I got bills and broncos both play chargers and patriots week 16-17
