I would probably go with Nola, they will definitely be playing for home field advantage and playoff positioning although I think they have the toughest opposing offenses to play against. I would rather have a defense that has something to play for vs teams that's looking towards the future and guys possibly looking at ending the season healthy.

Not NO or PIT... those are some bad matchups

If those are your only options... Detroit for sure, then MIA against JAX

Id probably roll with NOLA as well despite the matchups.... Vikings were a bad matchup and they scored well, Philly isnt a dream matchup either and they had a good day. As long as your league doesnt penalize for pts/yds given up Id roll with them. They will have a lot to play for and sometimes bad matchups can create more scoring opps... playing for homefield and with a lead means more sack/INT opps... Nobody was starting KC def vs the Rams and they had a good outing...

DET week 15, Miami Week 16.

If forced to choose only one prob NOLA.

I would rather play no defense than PIT against Brady and Brees.
I'm in too many leagues to list them here :wave:

Those are all pretty terrible choices....NOLA is probably your best bet, their defense is hot right now and Big Ben loves to crumble during away games and I'm not all that confident in Carolinas offense.
