3 years agoThe Atlanta Falcons defense should remain benched this week against Washington. Though rather inexperienced QB Taylor Heinicke will be coming to town this week, this defense has done nothing to inspire fantasy managers as the team allowed 32 and 48 points in the first two weeks. Though the unit clamped down on the Giants last week, it's worth noting Heinicke is capable of thriving against weaker defenses, as evidence of his Week 2 showing against the same Giants when he threw for 336 yards and two scores. There are better options than the Atlanta defense this week.--Rishi Patel - RotoBaller
