PLAY ACTION

Playing the matchups is crucial in fantasy football. As you set lineups each week, the goal is to have as many players as possible facing the league's most charitable defenses.

Because there is such great turnover in players and coaches from one season to the next, it takes a few games to figure out which defenses are fantasy friendly. Blindly considering last season's trends is a big trap.

Keep these rising defenses in mind when determining your lineup:

No free pass

Seahawks. Seattle spent good money on right end Grant Wistrom to bolster its pass rush, and cornerback addition Bobby Taylor has contributed to a secondary loaded with young talent.

Titans. The linebackers and safeties have struggled against tight ends, but corners Samari Rolle and Andre Dyson have been tough on wideouts.
