Streaming Defenses- Week 3

As we gear up for another fantasy week let’s take a look at the “team to stream” for week three- the Minnesota defense.

Analysis: Minnesota has a week three date at home against the lowly Cleveland Browns. The Browns may be without starting quarterback Brandon Weeden who has a throwing thumb injury. That may not be a bad thing considering Weeden only has one touchdown pass this year. Regardless, Jason Campbell will have to fill in and we all know he is the definition of pedestrian.

The Vikings have three interceptions and three fumble recoveries through two games this season. Those six takeaways rank second in the NFL. The Minnesota D still has its question marks but the Cleveland offense is 28th in the NFL in total yards. The Browns have allowed a league high eleven sacks and twenty-seven quarterback hits so far… this is all a recipe for streaming success. The Minnesota D/ST is available in 90% of fantasy leagues.
