D/ST

Start

New Orleans Saints vs. New York Jets – The Saints D/ST hasn’t posted double-digit fantasy points since Week 8, but I believe that streak ends this Sunday. The Jets will travel to New Orleans and their backup quarterback, Bryce Petty, will be forced to start with Josh McCown out for the season with an injury. I have a feeling things will get ugly for the Jets offense this Sunday.

Denver Broncos vs. Indianapolis Colts – Believe it or not, Weeks 13-14 was the first time all season the Broncos D/ST posted double-digit points in back-to-back weeks. The defense is trending in the right direction while opposing D/STs facing the Colts offense have finished with double-digit points in five out of the last seven games.

Sit

Seattle Seahawks vs. Los Angeles Rams – The Seahawks D/ST has finished with negative points in two out of their last four games and haven’t finished with double-digit points since Week 9. Please ignore their reputation and history and understand they won’t be helping owners this week.

Los Angeles Rams vs. Seattle Seahawks – The Jaguars D/ST has been the best in fantasy football all season, but even they could only muster up seven points against the Seahawks offense last week. The Rams and their third-best fantasy D/ST will be lucky to finish with seven points this week.
