Packers Defense A Risky Streaming Option Despite Recent Success
2 years agoThe Green Bay Packers defense will take on the division-rival Minnesota Vikings in Week 17. Green Bay's defense has been on a tear over the past three games, averaging 17 points allowed per game, recording seven sacks, and generating eight turnovers. However, they are still a risky streaming option this week against a Minnesota offense that has scored the seventh-most points in the league. The Vikings have also turned the ball over 17 times, which is tied for the sixth-fewest total this year. Green Bay will be able to generate pressure and get to quarterback Kirk Cousins, but their upside for fantasy is capped this week due to the Vikings' ability to score at such a high rate. Due to their recent success, the Packers' defense can be viewed as a streaming option this week, but they are risky nonetheless.
