Week 14 brought us the Steelers going off in Arizona, sacking Kyler Murray five times and picking him off three more, including a pick-six. They were by far the stud D/ST but David Blough did help the Vikings to two interceptions, five sacks and just seven points against. Kyle Allen continues to help opposing defenses, as the Falcons sacked him five times, intercepted him twice and recovered two fumbles.
We’ll try to find this week’s Steelers defense below.
D/ST Ranking Tiers
Tier 1
The Patriots get back to being a top play this week against Andy Dalton.
The Ravens have been on fire against good and bad teams alike. This week they get a bad team.
Tier 2
The Bills aren’t a smash spot for the Steelers but they’ve played so well that they get Tier 2 status at home against most teams.
Tampa Bay has shown some upside of late and get rookie David Blough this week.
D/ST Streamers
The Giants have some appeal against the Dolphins and the Lions get the turnover machine, Jameis Winston without Mike Evans.
