START ‘EM – D/ST

5. player. 10. . D/ST. Texans. Houston D/ST

Maybe it was the benefit of playing against a Dak Prescott-led Cowboys offense, but the Texans defense stepped their game up last week. They have an even better match-up this week against the Bills offense, who has been pretty pitiful.

Any time a defense is facing a rookie quarterback, that’s enough reason to start them in fantasy. Throw in that that rookie quarterback is also playing for a lousy Bills team and yeah… That’s a match-up you need to take advantage of.

The Texans are finding their strides defensively and that could be a great thing for Texans fantasy owners. Make sure they’re in your lineup this week.
