Andrew Luck has been impressive in his return from a shoulder injury that cost him all of last season, but that doesn't mean the Indianapolis Colts are a team to avoid when streaming. The Colts' offensive line has continued to struggle protecting Luck as he's taken 38 hits through 5 games, the 5th-most among all quarterbacks. Luck has been sacked multiple times in three out of five games.

This pressure on Luck has led to turnovers as well. The QB has committed at least one turnover in every game and multiple turnovers in two out of five. Meanwhile, the Colts' opponent this week, the New York Jets, have forced 11 turnovers on the season, which ranks 2nd-most in the league. The Jets have also been one of the better teams in pressuring the quarterback, ranking fourth in quarterback hits (36) and ninth in sacks (14).

The Jets' defense actually ranks as the ninth-best, per numberFire metrics, and they've been solid from a fantasy perspective, too. The Jets defense has been a weekly top-10 option three times already this season.

As a 2.5-point home favorite in this matchup against the Colts, the Jets are a solid streaming option.
