3. Denver Broncos (21% rostered) vs DET

Even though the Detroit Lions were able to get their first win last week easily and the trend is trending up a bit, the Denver Broncos matchup is clearly a plus for the Broncos defense. Denver ranks in the bottom third of the league with just three forced fumbles, only one defensive touchdown, and just 62 total fantasy points this season.

But the turnaround appears to be complete, as the Denver Broncos’ defense has put up 16 fantasy points in the last three weeks and accounted for the team’s first defensive touchdown of the season.
