4. Philadelphia Eagles (47% rostered) @ WAS

The Philadelphia Eagles defense has stabilized and become a top-10 defense in the last 2 games. On average, the Eagles defense scored 7.0 fantasy football points. Four sacks, two interceptions, and one defensive touchdown make them a very balanced unit.

The next opponent is the Washington Football Team — the team that has allowed the most fantasy football points per game to opposing defenses over the last three weeks at 12.0. 12 sacks allowed, three interceptions, and two defensive touchdowns allowed underpinning the abysmal form of the Washington Football Team.
