3 Fantasy Football Defensive Streaming Options for Week 7
The Colts face the Buffalo Bills in Week 7, making their defense a superb streaming option. Which other waiver-wire defenses should you look to for Week 7?

Arizona Cardinals

Yahoo Ownership: 13%
numberFire Projected Rank: 13th

While it's been an ugly start to the season for the Arizona Cardinals, the defense has actually been solid. The Cardinals' defense ranks as the sixth-best unit, per our schedule-adjusted metrics.

This week, the Cardinals host Case Keenum and the Denver Broncos on Thursday. After a three-touchdown performance in Week 1, Keenum has thrown for only four scores over the last five weeks. Seemingly on the verge of being benched for Chad Kelly, Keenum has thrown eight interceptions this season -- most in the league. He's also taken at least one sack in every game, including multiple sacks in each of the past four games.

Keenum could be under pressure often Thursday night as the Cardinals' pass rush ranks fifth in sacks (18) and seventh in quarterback hits (39). The Cardinals' defense has also forced 11 turnovers this year, eighth-most through six weeks.

Oddsmakers aren't expecting a lot of points in this game, giving it an over/under of 40.5, the lowest projected total in Week 7. The Cardinals are actually a 2.5-point home underdog in this matchup, but against a struggling Keenum, they're on the streaming radar.
