Falcons D/ST A Risky Start After First Good Game Of Season
2 months agoThe Atlanta Falcons defense finally put up a good effort against the New Orleans Saints in Week 4. While they did allow 24 points in the game, Atlanta's DST logged a sack, an interception, and two touchdowns. Their 17.00 points mainly were buoyed by the two touchdowns, though, which accounted for 12 of the 17 points. They haven't been a great unit at forcing turnovers this season, with just three interceptions and no fumbles forced or recovered through four games. The Falcons will take on divisional rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who rank 12th least in fantasy points allowed to DSTs, with 7.25. It's not a great matchup for the Falcons DST, 21st ranked in fantasy scoring and had finishes of 3.0, 3.0, and 2.0 points in Weeks 1-3. Atlanta's DST is not on the streaming radar and can be left on the benches for Week 5.
