Lions D/ST Has Tough Matchup Against Seattle
3 months agoThe Detroit Lions defense/special teams is a risky option against the Seahawks in Week 4. In front of what should be a raucous home crowd at Ford Field, the Lions will look to ramp up the pass rush with the likes of Aidan Hutchinson. With eight team sacks through three games, that is a strength of the Lions' defense. But there could be points to be had in this game and DK Metcalf is a scary matchup for the Lions' cornerbacks and Geno Smith is a more than capable quarterback. In what could be a back-and-forth game, there could be points to be had from both teams in this game. The Lions D/ST will likely need turnovers to turn in a good fantasy performance. With one interception in each of the first three games that is a possibility but this should not be a streaming-worthy defense option this week. Detroit ranks as the 14th defense in fantasy this season in terms of total points with 20 and could finish in similar territory in terms of Week 4 output.
