Denver @ Pittsburgh
Team Totals: Steelers 24.75, Broncos 17
On a short week traveling coast to coast after managing Week 1’s overall QB26 result versus Tennessee, Drew Lock catches an even tougher draw at Heinz Field. Only six 2019 defenses yielded fewer fantasy points to quarterbacks than Pittsburgh, and no team generated more Week 1 pressure than the Steelers against Daniel Jones, who threw two interceptions, absorbed three sacks, and managed an anemic 79.2 passer rating, “good” for 25th across the league. With not a single Denver skill player in a favorable Week 2 spot, Pittsburgh’s D/ST is easily a better one-for-one bet than Lock. … Even as Phillip Lindsay’s turf-toe injury heightens Melvin Gordon’s workload security, this week’s matchup is too imposing to value Gordon above a flex-play option.
