Avoid Raiders Defense In Week 17
2 years agoThe Las Vegas Raiders defense has underperformed this season, entering Week 17 as the 24th-ranked scoring defense in the NFL. They rank 30th and 31st in sacks and takeaways, respectively, despite a second consecutive Pro Bowl year from defensive end Maxx Crosby. They face off against one of the hottest teams in the league on Sunday in the San Francisco 49ers, who have averaged 31 points per game in their last three contests, including a 37-point performance against the Commanders last week. The Raiders will also be without starters Chandler Jones and Denzel Perryman, who were both placed on Injured Reserve this week. The Raiders are a bottom-10 defense in fantasy this week.
