Who to start? I have Chicago and Cincy D on my team.

Chicago v. Sea

Cincy v. NE

They're both at home, so no big advantage there, IMHO.

In terms of Offense, SEA's offense is only 20th in YPG compared to NWE's being at 8th, but NWE is averaging only 16.7 PPG to SEA's 24.0.

If we look at the other stats that matter to a DEF, SEA has more INTs than NWE, 5 to 2, and they also have allowed more sacks, 8 to 4. Fumbles Lost is also in SEAs "favor," 1 to 0.

Given all of that, I'd start Baltimore. ;) Seriously, I don't know that you can go TOO wrong with your decision, but I'd probably drop in CHI.

When in doubt, go with the Bears. Have they had a bad fantasy week in their last 19 games?

I'd say this game doesn't qualify as good, but it's one of VERY few since the start of 2005.

KKB ask someone from the chicago area, look at who played for the defence that week. No Urlacher, no Tommy Harris, no Lance Briggs. This team was the backups the week before the playoffs.

Use the Chicago Defense every week, and see if you can't trade the Cincy defense for something. If not, drop them and pick up a position where you need help. Only pick up a 2nd Defense for your bye week. Just my thoughts.

If Chi is playing...go with them.

Kyle, I'm not dogging the CHI defense. I said in my original post to go with them. But, in that particular game, from a fantasy perspective, that certainly would not have been a good week to have started them.
