Kickers:<\/h2>\n
I look for the highest projected scoring teams that are going to be close. The I narrow this down by looking for games playing under a dome so weather is not a factor.<\/p>\n
Defense:<\/h2>\n
Philadelphia Eagles (vs. New York Giants)<\/p>\n
Philadelphia isn\u2019t a place you want to go if you have issues in pass protection. That\u2019s a troubling reality for a Giants team that\u2019s allowed eight sacks in two games, regardless of whether you want to pin the results on Eli Manning or his offensive line. Manning has also thrown a pair of picks while completing just four passes of 20-plus yards, and the running game has squeaked out 97 yards on 30 carries. Even with a healthier version of Odell Beckom the Giants are in real danger of fielding a bottom-five offense this season.<\/p>\n
Miami Dolphins (at New York Jets)<\/p>\n
New York Jets have mostly been as advertised through two weeks, getting outscored 66-32. The only reason I\u2019m not higher on Miami\u2019s prospects is that the Jets have deployed an extremely conservative passing game, which limits the opportunities for opponents to come up with turnovers Josh MCcown completed 67.2 percent of his passes for 5.5 yards per attempt — a stat line that suggests the Jets are trying to avoid embarrassment rather than taking an earnest shot at winning. Hurts when I write this but it\u2019s true.<\/p>\n
Green Bay Packers (vs. Cincinnati Bengals<\/p>\n
The Green Bay defense figures to get back on track in a matchup with a Cincinnati offense that arguably has been the league\u2019s worst unit through two weeks (with apologies to the Saints\u2019 defense). After turning the ball over five times against Baltimore in their opener, the Bengals managed just nine points Week 2versus Houston. Andy Dalton has already been sacked eight<\/p>\n
times while playing behind a line that lost its two best players in the offseason. The Green Bay defense is far from spectacular and can easily be exploited by wide receivers, but the unit is typically a strong fantasy option at home, where it often benefits from Aron Rodgers ability to produce early leads. Andy Dalton likely will be in for a long day if the Packers\u2019 defense is able to pin its ears back and disregard the run. As a bonus, Green Bay makes for an excellent two-week streamer, facing the Bears at Lambeau Field next Thursday.<\/p>\n
Tennessee Titans (vs. Seattle Seahawks)<\/p>\n
With their long-standing struggles on the offensive line seemingly at a nadir, the Seahawks no longer profile as a difficult matchup for opposing defenses. They\u2019ve allowed six sacks and produced just 21 points through two weeks, though Russell Wilson does at least get some credit for keeping the team in games by avoiding turnovers. Of course, I expect that to change this week against a Tennessee team that should put up some points against Seattle\u2019s excellent defense. Wilson isn\u2019t the problem, but there\u2019s not much he\u2019ll be able to do if he\u2019s facing a multi-score deficit behind that line, particularly if Jimmy Graham (ankle\/knee) is unavailable. The Tennessee defense is a middling unit on paper, but it\u2019s seemingly good enough to take advantage of favorable matchups, as was the case in Jacksonville (two sacks, three takeaways) on Sunday. An ugly Week 1 showing against the Raiders should seem like the distant past by the team Seattle leaves town. The Titans also have appeal beyond Sunday, heading to Houston in Week 4 and later playing the Colts (Week 6) and Browns (Week 7). Stuck in between is a sub-optimal Week 5 matchup in Miami.<\/p>\n
Games I am going to focus on:<\/h2>\n
Steelers at Bears<\/p>\n
Miami at Jets<\/p>\n
Bengals at Green Bay<\/p>\n
Oakland at Washington<\/p>\n
Here is a sample lineup I would use on Fan Duel if I was going to play a 50-50.<\/p>\n
Wentz<\/p>\n
Ty Montgomery<\/p>\n
Marshawn Lynch<\/p>\n
A.J. Green<\/p>\n
Golden Tate<\/p>\n
Keenen Allen<\/p>\n
Zach Ertz<\/p>\n
Matt Bryant<\/p>\n
New England Pats<\/p>\n
If you play 50-50s play the single-entry ones. This way you do not have to worry about someone putting in 100 lineups in that contest.<\/p>\n
