After week 7, teams traveling from the west coast to the east coast to play games are now 0-10. San Diego, San Fransisco, and Seattle all lost in week 7 with struggling offenses.
Here is a look at week 8 matchups:
Kansas City @ New York
Jets- Dwayne Bowe, Larry Johnson, and Tony Gonzalez may not be good starters on your fantasy roster this week going up against a decent
Jets defense.
Arizona @ Carolina- last time on the East Coast, the
Cardinals went 0-2 with losses to the
Redskins and
Jets. Warner played well, but the
Cardinals offense is much better at home than on the road. Edgerrin James should get plenty of work, but won’t have the same success against this Panthers’ defense as he does against teams in the NFC West.
Oakland @ Baltimore- I would stay away from starting any and all
Raiders in this game. They are up against the most fiersome defense in the NFL and traveling across coasts to do so.
