Pats d or arizona d this week?
 

i guessed wrong last week and i need help for this week?

I'd go with Arizona.

The Pats are decent, but are vulnerable through the air and have no answer for good tight ends like Owen Daniels. Plus, the Texans do everything well. At least, well enough not to give up double digit points to opposing defenses yet this year. They don't turn the ball over much, and they're best in the league at avoiding sacks.

Wilson and the Seattle offense have been good lately, but the Texans are better.

I do not like either. They are both bad matchups this week. I would strongly suggest dropping one of these defenses and picking up a matchup defense weekly. Of the two, I would drop Arizona. NE has the better mathups and the majority of their games at home - never discout home field and the crowd affecting the opposing team's offense:


Cards

@ Sea - wk 14
Det - wk 15
Chi - wk 16
@ SF - wk 17

Pats

Hou - wk 14
SF - wk 15
@ Jax - wk 16
Mia - wk 17

I gotta agree with One87 here. There are some solid matchups for D teams this week that should be on the wire (BUF, CLE, JAC for exapmple).

If you have to use one of ARI or NE then I say go with ARI. I think it is possible that the Cards get to Wilson and give him good going over.

I agree. Cards is a preferable start to NE this week. Just to clarify, though, as paw stated, Cle (and others) would be a better start than NE or Ari. Cle is a very good matchup this week. If you don't want to do a weekly match up and simply want another decent D to pair with NE, Cinci would be a good scoop, if they are available.
