Patriots' Defense Can Be Avoided In Week 10

Patriots' Defense Can Be Avoided In Week 10

one year ago

The New England Patriots' defense is not a reliable fantasy option for Week 10 versus the Indianapolis Colts in Germany. Although this Bill Belichick-led unit has forced seven turnovers through the last four weeks, they're facing a Colts team that has found itself in plenty of shootouts this year. In fact, this Indianapolis squad is the only team in the NFL to score 20-plus points in every game this year. Even if New England can force an occasional interception or fumble on Sunday, the Colts' ability to score points should not be ignored. Defenses score just 7.8 fantasy points per game when facing the Colts this year; that's the eight-lowest mark in the league. Avoid the Patriots heading into Sunday's overseas contest.
