Atlanta Falcons Defense Not A Strong Fantasy Option
5 years agoThe Falcons Defense opens the season with a couple of tough matchups: a road game against the Vikings and a home game against the Eagles. While the defensive unit itself isn't awful, they suffer from having an offense that produces at such a high efficiency, forcing opposing offense to chase points often. Last year, the Falcons Defense allowed 26.4 points per game, which was the eighth-most in the league. They also only forced 19 takeaways on the year, which was amongst the bottom half of the league. The Falcons Defense can be a potential streaming option against weak matchups, but shouldn't be drafted in standard fantasy leagues.
