Chalk
Baltimore Ravens - $5000, 14.21% PO/17.9% AO: -4 pts

• The league's best defense was showcased in London has being the leagues worst defense with an abysmal negative score. QB Blake Bortles who has had his fair share of QB troubles in his career came out of this game looking like a stud throwing 4 TDs. This raises some serious concerns on how good is the Baltimore defense really?

Pivot
Green Bay Packers - $4800 - 3.1% AO - 6 pts

• Andy Dalton and the Bengals offense finally came to life this game and gave the Packers a scare in what was a close game. The defense ultimately held on tight enough for a Packer's win. This wasn't a strong play this week, but due to the overwhelming amount of teams that had a poor showing, the Pack's defense more than likely helped your lineup then hinder it.

GPP
Philadelphia Eagles - $4500 - 13.6% AO - 4 pts

• The Giants game plan involved a lot of quick throws which prevented the Eagles defense from getting any sacks in this game. The Eagles were holding onto a shutout going into the 4th quarter but fell apart quickly. thanks to OBJ and company. If it wasn't for a few INTs, this would've been one of the worst defenses to roster.

Fade
Buffalo Bills - $4300, 7.66% PO - 8 pts

• Buffalo pulled off an upset this week over the Broncos despite their lingering injuries and put up another solid score representing what they've done all season in fantasy. If this team can make more impact plays they could be a legitimate top 5 fantasy defense.

Contrarian
Tampa Bay Buccaneers - $4600, 4% PO/4.5% AO: -1 pts

• WOW! Keenum plays and looks like Bradford in Week 1 throwing TDs to Diggs with ease. The score and result of this game was shocking to say the least. Tampa Bay's defense simply had no answers for the Viking's offense.

Sleeper
Miami Dolphins - $5100 - 5% AO - 5 pts

• Somehow the Dolphins let themselves be showcased as the team the Jets could beat this season. Miami's offense didn't help by doing the defense any favors either. At least they had a positive score.

Bargain (< $4500)
Detroit Lions - $4200 - 13 pts

• The Lions continue to make impact plays when they count but couldn't sneak in a win this week against the Atlanta Falcons. Despite their tough match ups, the Lions continue to generate points. Keep them on your radar.
