TWR - New England Patriots
Week 5 Outlook
59°Availability
New England Patriots' D/ST allowed 34 points, while collecting two sacks in the Patriots' 34-0 loss to the Saints.
Fantasy Impact
The Patriots' defense allowed 183 passing yards and 136 rushing yards in the loss. The defense did not get any help from the Patriots' offense, as they failed to move the ball and was forced to punt eight times. The Patriots will take on the Raiders in Week 6.
The Patriots' defense logged one interception and recovered a muffed punt during Sunday's win over the Steelers. The unit also sacked Mitchell Trubisky three times and held Pittsburgh to 14 points.
Fantasy Impact
The Patriots have a solid defense, though they admittedly didn't have an extremely challenging matchup this week. They held Najee Harris in check and looked fine fending off Trubisky and the passing attack. Things will get a lot more difficult for New England when they take on the dominant Ravens offense next week.
