Despite a plethora of injuries at quarterback and along the offensive line, the Washington Redskins are somehow still in the hunt for a playoff spot. But this week, they're a great target for streaming defenses with Josh Johnson drawing his second road start after joining the team about three weeks ago.

The Redskins are 10.5-point road underdogs against the Tennessee Titans in a game expected to be very low scoring. This matchup has a 37.0-point over/under, the lowest on the Week 16 slate.

On the season, the Redskins have allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing defenses, including two top-7 finishes in their last two games. Both the New York Giants and Jacksonville Jaguars tagged the Redskins for a big fantasy week, although the Jaguars were supported by a punt return touchdown from Dede Westbrook.

On the other side, the Titans have been a top-seven defense in each of the past two weeks. But over the past month, Tennessee has really been getting after the quarterback, posting multiple sacks in each of their previous four games. Over that span, the Titans have totaled 13 sacks and 4 forced turnovers.

Against a Redskins offense that is on the road and barely hanging on with all the injuries, the Titans are a great option in Week 16.
