In fantasy football, sometimes it doesn't matter how good you are. It's how bad the other team is.
We've all had weeks when our players all underperform, but the opponent's do even worse and you get the W anyway.
It's often that way when it comes to picking a defense/special teams unit in fantasy. They may not be that great, but put them up against an inexperienced or turnover-prone quarterback and they're a top-5 option.
This week, that unit is the New York Jets, who play at home against the winless Miami Dolphins and quarterback Malik Willis.
