Arizona Cardinals Defense A Week 16 Sleeper?
11 months agoAfter the Week 15 shellacking at the hands of divisional foe San Francisco, the Arizona Cardinals travel to Chicago to take on the Bears in Week 16. The Cardinals have allowed 26.0 points per game (31st) while posting just 32 sacks (23rd) and 15 takeaways (24th). In turn, their ceiling is low in most matchups. However, they're set up well against the Bears, who have given up 24 turnovers (25th) this year while QB Justin Fields has been sacked on a whopping 10.6 percent of dropbacks. Facing an offense prone to turnovers and a quarterback under constant pressure, the Cardinals' defense could find opportunities to capitalize. While their overall season performance raises concerns, this Week 16 matchup presents a favorable scenario for fantasy managers.
