Patriots' Defense Has Streaming Appeal Against Washington

one year ago

The New England Patriots' defense is a fringe streaming option in Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. While the Washington offense has shown signs of life at times, including last Sunday when it dropped 31 points on the Eagles, there's no denying that Sam Howell is susceptible to turnovers and an awful lot of sacks. He has eight interceptions, one lost fumble, and a staggering 41 sacks through eight contests this year. The Patriots' defense may be enduring growing pains without Matthew Judon (biceps) and Christian Gonzalez (shoulder), but the unit still has five turnovers over its last three games against strong offenses. The Commanders have surrendered the most fantasy points to opposing defenses, putting the Patriots in a favorable position this week.
