The Top DSTs To Start in Week 10
Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens have been one of the best defenses in “real” life, and their success has very much carried over to the fantasy world.

This week, they face a sporadic Deshaun Watson who is liable to run into trouble and/or take unnecessary risks. Baltimore has six games with at least four sacks this season and has reached double digits in fantasy points on five separate occasions. I like their chances of improving those numbers in what could be the best game of the week.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Opposing Jordan Love has proven profitable for fantasy defenses over the past month, and that should continue in this spot, with Pittsburgh blitzing at the third-highest rate.
The Steelers are one of three defenses turning over opponents at least twice per game, a skill that should shine through on Sunday against Love’s overly aggressive style of play.
