Streaming against the Buffalo Bills has been profitable this season and it's time to go back to the well. Buffalo hosts a surprisingly 3-1 Tennessee Titans team this week that is coming off a Week 4 victory in which they sacked Carson Wentz 4 times.

On the season, the Titans rank 7th in the league in sacks (12) and 4th in quarterback hits (29). That doesn't bode well for Josh Allen, who has taken no fewer than 3 sacks in every game this season. Allen has also thrown multiple interceptions in two of his three starts. From a fantasy perspective, the Titans have 3 top-12 scoring weeks this season.

Outside of their shocking Week 3 win in Minnesota, the Bills have been a great target for opposing defenses. Opposing defenses not named the Vikings have finished no lower than 6th in weekly fantasy scoring.

The Titans are a 3.5-point road favorite in this game and should be the next defense in line to post a solid fantasy day against the Bills offense.
