Okay, so I’ve been messing around with fantasy football defenses, and I had a real head-scratcher this week: Colts or Buccaneers? Both seemed like decent options, but I needed to dig in to make the best choice. Here’s how I went about it.
First Glance: The Matchups
First things first, I checked who they were playing. You know, the basic stuff. You gotta see if one team is up against a super strong offense or a total pushover.
- Colts:
- Buccaneers:
Diving into Stats
Next, I wanted some numbers. I’m not a stats whiz or anything, just wanted the basic, easy to grasp.
- Points Allowed: A simple for check.
- Sacks: Because sacks can lead to big plays.
- Interceptions/Fumbles: Turnovers are golden in fantasy.
- Recent Performance: How have they been doing the past few weeks? Are they trending up or down?
Checking Expert Picks
After reviewing the numbers, I checked some expert advice.
My Gut Feeling
After all that, it really came down to my gut. Sometimes, you just gotta trust your instincts, even if the numbers are super close. For me. I thought the choice was correct. They have been solid all year.
So, there you have it. That’s my not-so-scientific, but hopefully helpful, way of picking between two defenses. Hope this helps you out in your fantasy league! Good luck!
