stream these five defenses in week two number one on the list is the Los Angeles Chargers you know it's a bad Omen when your first pass of the season is an interception that's exactly where we're at with Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers despite bringing in Deontay Johnson and drafting Xavier Legette and Jonathan Brooks this looks like the exact same team as last year Bryce young still seems undersized and outmatch and he completed a mere 13 of 30 passes last week and he also took four sacks tied for the third most and this is an issue going back to last year when he took the second most sacks in the league I think it wouldn't be surprising to see him finish near the top again and at this point any defense going up against the Panthers is stream worthy they made the Saints looked like the 85 Bears last week I'm expecting Joey Bosa and khil Mack to lead the charge and to open things up for Derwin James and Asante Samuel Jr on the back end and I wouldn't be surprised to see this team have another strong performance they're coming off of a game where they only allowed 10 points to the Raiders they had four sacks an interception and two fumble recoveries if you're looking for a defense to stream I would fire them up this week and feel good about it number two on the list is Indianapolis colds Jordan love was slated to miss at least 3 to 6 weeks initially but there now reports coming out saying that he might come back sooner some were even saying possibly this week but I highly doubt that the Packers have already come out and named Malik Willis the starter and if that is the case then I think the Colts should have a field day in The Limited sample size we have of him playing which is around eight games he's taken 15 sacks thrown three interceptions and fumbled four times losing three of them which bodess very well for the Colts I expect the Packers to use a run heavy script but if things get out of hand they may be forced to pass the ball at this point they can't afford to go 0 and2 in a division where everyone is 1 and0 it's very likely Willis's number gets called more than he' like and if that's the case he's bound to make some errors number three on the list is the Jacksonville Jaguars unfortunately for Browns fans Joe Flaco is not coming to save the day and I think as long as DeShaun Watson is starting and Nick chub is out of the lineup this offense should continue to struggle just last week alone Watson threw two interceptions and took a league leading six sacks and if you go back and look at previous Seasons Watson's actually been in the top five three times in terms of sacks taken per game and in two other Seasons he's been in the top 15 Watson just doesn't look right physically or mentally and behind a pretty banged up o line I think the Jacksonville Jaguars athletic front is going to Feast with how financially tied the Browns are to Watson I'm expecting him to start for the foreseeable future and if that's the case I would take a chance on any defense he plays the productive days in Houston sleam further and further away and I think Watson is just not the quarterback that he once was I think Jacksonville comes out this week with a chip on their shoulder because they let last week slip away and they should come out firing number four on the list is the Washington commanders the commanders get the Giants this week which means they get Daniel Jones who last week proved that he is still the same Daniel Jones that we've seen over the last last few years he did not throw a touchdown he threw two interceptions one of which was taken back to the house and he took five sacks the second most in the league he doesn't have saquan Barkley anymore to mask his mistakes and Devin Singletary is not the player that saquan is so I think they're going to continue to struggle I think he will play a little bit better than he did last week but not by much the Giants still have one of the worst offensive lines in the league and I'm expecting Dan Quinn to take advantage of that and dial up a bunch of pressures and I think at this point it's fair to say that were all on Drew lock watch in the Big Apple I think if Daniel Jones struggles early on lock could be inserted into the lineup and if that happens that may benefit Washington even more number five on the list is the Seattle Seahawks I think the Patriots benefited from a number of things last week the Bengals are currently in a disarray last week T Higgins was a lateen active Jamar Chase had food poisoning so he wasn't his usual self and this team was able to just rely on ra Andre Stevenson and their defense which played surprisingly well I think they're in for a much tougher battle this week against Mike McDonald's defense who should definitely provide a bigger test jacobe brassett is pretty much going to be a game manager for however long he starts he only attempted 24 passes last week and he's a bit banged up if he gets asked to do more he's bound to make some mistakes and Seattle should take advantage they're coming off of a solid game where they had two sacks two picks and a fumble recovery the Patriots only managed to put up 16 points last week and the only reason they could stick to the run is because the Bengals only scored 10 I expect the Seahawks to force them into some tough situations and use a more balanced game script which should bode well for their defense those are five defenses to consider streaming thank you so much for watching please subscribe and let me know which defenses you think we should stream in the
