You know how this goes. Any team playing the Cleveland Browns is instantly worthy of streaming consideration, and this week it's the San Diego Chargers who get a crack at the Browns.
The Browns have allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing defenses this year, second only to the Los Angeles Rams. Opposing defenses are averaging 10.4 points against the Browns in standard scoring leagues.
Meanwhile, the Chargers have established themselves as a stingy, turnover-creating unit. San Diego's defense ranks 10th, according to numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics, and they lead the league in interceptions (17) and are tied for seventh in fumble recoveries (10).
While the Chargers have not been punishing opposing quarterbacks -- they rank 27th in sacks (25) -- the Browns and Robert Griffin III could provide the Chargers' defensive line with ample opportunity. On the season, the Browns' offensive line has allowed the most sacks (53) and quarterback hits (119).
Griffin has also been less than stellar, failing to throw a touchdown through three starts. He's been sacked at least three times in each of his starts.
The Chargers are a six-point road favorite in Week 16. Fire up San Diego with confidence this week.
