Top 20 Defense Options for Week 13.

Week 12 was full of surprises with Washington coming out of nowhere to lead the fantasy defense scoring as they secured their first win since Week 6. Their 20 point haul was secured with a pair of late Jeff Driskel interceptions (4 turnovers in total), supported by 6 sacks and a defensive touchdown. There were also big weeks for the Jets (17 points), Seahawks (16 points) and Buccaneers (16 points), so if you rostered any of these teams, they would have been a game changer for your fantasy week.

Like last week there are some tasty match ups of top offenses vs top defenses, including the 49ers heading to Baltimore in a clash between two of the league’s in form teams, the Patriots travelling to the streaky Texans and the Cowboys looking to bounce back from their defeat in New England by hosting the Bills and their top 3 pass defense.

My top streaming defense this week comes in the form of the Jets, who are currently under 25% owned in fantasy leagues. After their strong outing against the Raiders in Week 12, they travel to the Bengals this week who welcome back Andy Dalton at quarterback.
