I'm thinking the Chiefs could break it this week.

Case Keenum will start Sunday's game. #Texans

I doubt it because you need a team that is going to be pass happy and expose a QB like Keenum and I can't see that happening. I don't think KC are good enough to run away with the game and the Texans might run it 50 times.

I am pretty sure the Seahawks scored 42 (or something close to that) last year in WEEK 14 against Arizona.

I want to say the 49ers also clipped the 40 mark a few years back.

Yep.....nice to know that a defense won some people some ridiculous amounts of $$$$$$.

Which yet again shows you that a team always steps up from the waiver wire to lead the way. I always chuckle when I see folks jumping at DEF picks in round 10 or so.

Billy, I think Tom was being a bit facetious. :D I don't think he was really looking for the record.

I think Matt is right. They may run it 50+ times against that run defense. It will be like two grind-it-out high school running teams. Bet the under!

No doubt. You can pick up a good matchup defense nearly every week.

I was streaming defenses early this year, and I must have had KC on 70% of my teams in week 2 or 3. Then I dropped them a bunch the next week. Doh!! I obviously didn't expect to see this production.

I tell ya what.. these Thursday night defenses are killing me.

In the primetime faced Cleveland two weeks ago, two defensive touchdowns later I'm down 18-0 after Thursday. Last week, faced Chicago and an early pick six left me down 13-0. This week... get to face Seattle D, and of course they pick si... THANK YOU BROWNER :lol:

But seriously, I would like to stop playing Thursday night defenses, they seem to be an auto 10+
