4. New Orleans Saints (32% rostered) @ NYJ

The New York Jets have allowed just 4.6 fantasy points per game to opposing defenses in their last three games, but those were also defenses of the Dolphins, Texans, and Eagles. The Eagles are currently not a defense I want to stream for the fantasy playoff – but that’s another topic… In the nine games before that, on the other hand, the New York Jets allowed 7.7 fantasy points per game to opposing defenses.

Even though Zach Wilson has looked better of late, he still has some looks that he misses and some bad throws. Add to that the Jets’ weak offensive line, which the New Orleans Saints’ defense, even if a bit banged up, should be able to hold its own against. With Taysom Hill likely to run the ball a lot, expect a low-scoring game.
