4 FanDuel Defenses to Target in Week 4

Green Bay Packers

If you're playing a slate that includes the Thursday night matchup between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers, the Packers are another strong option.

Vegas has the Packers as a seven-point home favorite, which is the fourth-largest spread of the week. With Mike Glennon possibly facing a negative game script on the road, we've already seen how that can go. In Week 2, the Bears lost 29-7 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Glennon had three turnovers -- two interceptions and one fumble. The Bucs finished as the highest-scoring defense in fantasy that week.

The Packers defense has been one of the best at putting pressure on the quarterback through three weeks -- they rank in the top eight in both sacks (9) and quarterback hits (19). Meanwhile, the Bears offensive line has allowed the sixth-most hits on the quarterback (20), even though Glennon has only been sacked seven times.

With the Packers projected to be playing with a lead, the Bears could be forced to lean on Glennon more than they would like, which should lead to a big night for the Green Bay defense.
