D/ST

Start

Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans – Last week the Titans went on the road and scored double-digit fantasy points against an inept Colts offense. This week they play at home against an inept Texans offense. Get them in starting lineups.

Denver Broncos vs. Miami Dolphins – The Broncos D/ST has been awful this season (28th in ESPN standard scoring) but I’ll still gamble with them this week. The Dolphins offense hasn’t been getting it done this year and the last time Jay Cutler was on the field, he threw three interceptions in just one half.

Sit

Carolina Panthers vs. New Orleans Saints – The Panthers are the 10th-best D/ST this season and have scored double-digit fantasy points in three out of their last five games. Yet, this week they have to go on the road to face Drew Brees and the Saints offense. The last time the Panthers faced the Saints, their D/ST finished with -3 fantasy points.

Seattle Seahawks vs. Philadelphia Eagles – Since Week 3, opposing D/STs have been averaging less than one fantasy point per game when facing the Eagles offense. Unless you get fantasy points for reputation, don’t play the Seahawks this week.
