Week 7 FFPC Defense Rankings

32 defenses ranked · FFPC scoring · Updated Sep 29, 2026, 6:01 AM EDT

Projected — Week 4 is the current week

FFPC scores a safety at 5 points and uses a different points-allowed curve, so defenses that generate turnovers and shut-out quarters move differently than they do in standard PPR leagues. This is the Week 7 FFPC DST board — 32 defenses ranked on FFPC scoring, not a PPR board with a label swapped on it. 24 of 32 defenses sit at a different rank here than on the Week 7 PPR board. Green Bay Defense gains the most, moving from 32 in PPR to 22 under FFPC scoring. Las Vegas Defense leads the board at 11.3 projected FFPC points, 0.6 clear of Minnesota Defense.
