2024 Week 15 Top-ranked Defense/ Special Teams for Fantasy Football Points
Week 15 is here, and the fantasy football playoffs are in full swing. If you’re still in the running for a championship, it’s time to make some strategic moves to secure that win. One strategy to consider is carrying two defenses to maximize your chances of success. Having a great matchup stashed on your bench can give you a competitive edge, so don’t hesitate to block your opponent from playing a strong defense.
For those of you playing daily fantasy sports (DFS), we’ve got you covered too. We’ll help you with some high-leverage spots where the defense is likely to rack up points through sacks and turnovers. Last week may not have been the best for DST scoring, but that just means we need to sharpen our pencils and dig deeper for Week 15.
Looking back at Week 14, here were the results from the top 5 DST adds:
– Arizona: -1 pts
– Seattle: 7 pts
– LA Chargers: 4 pts
– Dallas: 4 pts
– New Orleans: 10 pts
While it may not have been a stellar week overall, we can learn from it and make better picks for this week. Let’s dive into the top 5 DST adds for Week 15, focusing on options with ownership percentages under 50% in Yahoo leagues.
1. Washington @ NO
2. Atlanta @ LV
