Chiefs Defense/Special Teams

2 Sacks, 1 INT, and >20 points

The Kansas City Chiefs defense has emerged as one of the better Fantasy Football defenses in the league. The unit is always a threat to create turnovers, get after the quarterback, or even score points. That has certainly been the case over the past few weeks, even against good offenses.

The Chiefs and Titans are likely to square off in a game that looks more like an old school Big Ten match up. Both teams prefer to use a ball-control offense based on running the ball. That doesn’t set up for a very high scoring game. Nor does it make it likely either team will get many opportunities to force turnovers.

While the Chiefs defense is a quality option to have for your league, I wouldn’t expect a ton of points this week. However, they should still be one of the better options. For DFS, the bang for buck definitely appears worth it. The Chiefs shouldn’t surrender a lot of points, and there is always a chance for a big play.
