Drew Brees threw a pass that was intercepted by K. Moore of the Redskins. Moore returned the ball to the Washington 44, where he was stripped of the ball by Robert Meachem, who then ran for the touchdown.
Per our policy regarding these types of plays, this is an offensive fumble recovery touchdown for Meachem and NOT a defensive fumble recovery touchdown for the Saints. The intent of having a defensive unit on a fantasy team is to own the defensive players of that team; clearly the Saints defensive unit was never on the field at any time during the play.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
**Makes sense and I believe FLEA needs to take away that TD
In a way, isnt that like saying offensive players shouldnt get credit for tackles on turnovers because only defensive players should get tackles for those who use tackles in thier defensive settings?

I agree with those that are saying the Saints defense should get credit for this...When the ball is turned over, the offense becomes the defense...
