Week 10 was rounded out with San Francisco at the top spot for fantasy defenses. The addition of Chase Young helped lead to five sacks and two interceptions. San Francisco held the Jaguars to a measly three points, the lowest points against total for the week. The Indianapolis Colts and Cleveland Browns round out the top three spots. Only seven defenses scored ten or more points, which made a frustrating week overall for defenses. We go into week 11 with four teams on a bye – Atlanta Falcons, Indianapolis Colts, New Orleans Saints, and  New England Patriots. Here are my three streaming options for week 11.

Washington Commanders vs. New York Giants

ESPN Rostered: 49% Sleeper Rostered: 62%

The Commander’s pass rush has been abolished with the recent transactions they’ve made, and they have not scored 10 or more fantasy points since week six against the Atlanta Falcons. I expect the Commanders to bounce back against the New York Giants who have been nothing but terrible all year. Now without Daniel Jones, the Giants will likely try to keep the ball on the ground. Tommy DeVito has thrown three interceptions in his limited time at the helm. Saquon Barkley has lacked production due to the struggles around him. Saquon only has one touchdown on the year and is averaging 4.09 yards per carry. While Saquon is pulling his weight he simply cannot do enough to carry the weight of the entire team. Washington has fared well in the turnover category with 12 total turnovers on the year. They typically struggle to hold opponents to a low score but this matchup should not be a problem. I expect Washington to finish as a top-12 defense this week.

Miami Dolphins vs. Las Vegas Raiders

ESPN Rostered: 57% Sleeper Rostered: 59%

The Miami Dolphins have a favorable matchup against the Raiders as they come off their bye week. The Raiders have strung together back-to-back wins with rookie quarterback Aidan O’Connell, but those wins were against much lesser opponents than the Dolphins and I expect the Raiders to come back to reality in week 11. O’Connell is completing just 63.55% of his passes and has thrown three interceptions so far. While the Raiders keep the ball off the turf and limit their fumbles, they have trouble putting points on the board. They also have trouble protecting the quarterback and have allowed 24 sacks on the year (averaging right around two per game). The Raiders have put up over 20 points only twice this year. The Dolphins have tallied up 29 sacks on the year averaging just about three sacks per game.  In addition to that they have forced nine interceptions. An additional benefit of picking up Maimi now is the ability to stream them for a few weeks. After the Raiders this week, Miami will face the Jets, Commanders, Titans, and Falcons before you would be required to make a change. I expect Miami to finish in the top-10 this week and the next four weeks after.

Houston Texans vs. Arizona Cardinals

ESPN Rostered: 6% Sleeper Rostered: 7%

The Arizona Cardinals saw the return of Kyler Murray, and while Murray is an improvement over Clayton Tune he’s still not enough to sway my opinion. Murray will likely still be shaking off some rust after a long absence. I anticipate it will be some time before we see a full return to his former self. In his only previous start this year he completed less than 60% of his passes and threw one interception. While he did get into the endzone on the ground, he only rushed the ball six times. The options are meager with Murray’s weapons limited to James Connor, Trey McBride, and Hollywood Brown. The receivers of the group have less than 1000 yards on the year and five touchdowns combined. Houston is building momentum (though the defense has not shown the strongest performances in recent weeks) and I feel they will build on that to take advantage of a favorable matchup. Houston has 21 sacks on the season and has turned the ball over 12 times. They have allowed a lot of points to opposing offense but this is the perfect opportunity for the Texans to turn the corner and make a playoff push. I anticipate Houston finishing the week within the top-12.
