Eagles Defense A Top-Tier Fantasy Option In Week 8
2 years agoThe Philadelphia Eagles defense will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 8. Philadelphia has yielded 17 points or fewer over their past five games, has the highest turnover differential in the NFL, and is tied for 10th in sacks. Pittsburgh's offense has scored the 4th-fewest points through seven weeks, averaging 15.3 per game. Rookie Kenny Pickett is likely to struggle against one of the most formidable defensive units against the pass in Philadelphia and could turnover the ball multiple times. Fresh off the bye, Philadelphia has no starting defenders missing this week and has just acquired pass rusher Robert Quinn from the Chicago Bears. Unless Pittsburgh scores a few touchdowns late due to garbage time, Philadelphia will finish as one of the elite fantasy options in Week 8. Fire them up with confidence this week, and be sure to hold onto them as they play Houston next Thursday night.
