Defense vs position
Fantasy points each NFL team gives up per game to each position, under this league’s scoring, through week 3. The headline figure pads this season with 4 games at the team’s 2025 rate, so one bad afternoon early on does not make a defense look like a sieve; by midseason this year’s games dominate it. The small figure is this season alone. The DEF column is what defenses have scored against that team’s offense: the one to look at when streaming a defense.
