2. Dallas Cowboys (55% rostered) @ WAS

The Dallas Cowboys have the best fantasy football defense of the season so far. Period. 19 interceptions, four defensive touchdowns, and four forced fumbles speak for themselves. Last week against the New Orleans Saints, the Cowboys scored four interceptions and one defensive touchdown alone.

Against the Washington football team, this probably won’t be quite as easy. After all, Washington is fielding the fifth-best defense over the last three weeks, allowing an average of just 3.7 fantasy points per game to opposing defenses. Still, defensive playmakers, most notably Micah Parsons, can make the difference.
