“Start” These are going to be D/STs that are rostered that you shouldn’t think twice about starting.

“Sit” These are going to be the D/STs that need to be benched until next week’s evaluation.

“Stream” These are going to be the D/STs that are sitting on your waiver wire begging to be picked up.

Start

Kansas City Chiefs (D/ST6) vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Cleveland Browns (D/ST3) vs. Denver Broncos

New Orleans Saints (D/ST9) vs. Atlanta Falcons

This is the annual Chiefs beatdown on the Raiders game. This will be the game that the Chiefs get back on track.

The Broncos won’t keep riding this wave any longer against this elite defense.

The Saints coming off a BYE week against a divisional rival? Easy matchup. The Falcons are starting Desmond Ridder again? Even easier.

Sit

Philadelphia Eagles (D/ST12) vs. Buffalo Bills

Jacksonville Jaguars (D/ST7) @ Houston Texans

The Eagles, Bills, Jaguars, and Texans should not be started. These four teams are either elite or on fire and I would rather stay away from them all if it meant getting a win this week.
