Broncos Defense Has Favorable Matchup Against Jets

one year ago

The Denver Broncos defense has the dubious distinction of allowing a league-high 37.5 points per game heading into a favorable Week 5 matchup at home against the New York Jets, mainly because of their 70-point fiasco against the Miami Dolphins in Week 3. They've also allowed a league-high 461.5 total yards per game and a league-high 176 rushing yards per game through four weeks. It hasn't been pretty, but they are currently tied for 16th in overall fantasy points thanks to a defensive touchdown and a special-teams touchdown on a kickoff return. The Broncos D has been extremely generous, but they'll be in play as a streaming unit this week as they go against a Jets offense that is averaging only 15.5 points per game with Zach Wilson under center.
