In my money league, I need a win this week to clinch the division (or an opponent's loss, but I prefer just to get the W).
I have the Jets D going against Houston in NY and I have the Eagles D against the Packers in Philly.
Which do I go with?
Points scored against that defense count against me, so anything more than 20 points allowed starts putting me in the negatives.
2 for sacks and INTs, 1 for fumble recoveries.

HOuston does what ever its opponent does. If they play a good D (like NYJ) they don't score a lot, if they play a poor D they light it up...I'd go w/ NYJ. They have been in some loooow scoring games lately. If Abraham is healthy, then him and Vilma should get to Carr.
Is Buffalo available? Playing Miami.

I think the D/ST strategy this year, if you don't have one of the top 3-4, is to pick up and play whoever is playing San Fran. They are horrendous.

DGB, I think I'd take a shot with the Birds D, Johnson seems to have a knack for getting to and hitting the QB, and although the Packers put up some yards...
Houston is a little scary because Chad will be back under center...

If all you're looking for is a solid, consistent performance, I would go with the Jets. Since week three, they've given up over 20 points only once-- 22 to Buffalo.
Otherwise, the two teams are nearly even in creating turnovers and scores... the Eagles average about 1 more sack per game though.
I go Jets this week.

Went with Jets, but Eagles played out of their minds.
Only cost me 4 points but I won by 70 so it didn't matter.
