Arizona Cardinals D/ST Has Streaming Potential Against Broncos
The Arizona Cardinals' defense and special teams units represent a safe floor in Week 7. After allowing 30 or more points in four straight games, they held the Rams to 16 last Sunday. While suppressing points might not be their forte, Arizona has managed to record at least three sacks in four of their first six games and has recovered a fumble in five. Over the last three weeks, they have the fourth-highest sack rate in the NFL. In Week 7, Arizona faces the Denver Broncos, whose offense is scoring just 19.0 points per game and has the second-highest rate of going three-and-out in the league. Denver has committed just six turnovers and has given up the third-fewest sacks to start the season, so the Cardinals D/ST's success this week will depend on them keeping points off the board. Given Denver's ineptitude on offense, Arizona qualifies as a floor-play streaming option in Week 7 with four teams on bye.

Arizona Cardinals D/ST A Streaming Option Against Giants
The Arizona Cardinals D/ST unit fell on hard times after its surprising showing in Week 1. Against the Chargers in the season opener, Arizona held their opponent to 14 points, registered three sacks, and collected two turnovers for a top-10 finish that week. The Cardinals gave up at least 31 points in their subsequent matchups against the Seahawks and 49ers, and had just one more sack and two turnovers in those two games. A Week 4 matchup against the New York Giants could prove lucrative. Giants quarterback Jameis Winston is known for being turnover-prone and has already taken five sacks on 55 dropbacks, and the team is averaging just 15.3 points per game. Arizona's D/ST makes for a solid streamer in Week 4 and is projected for a top-12 finish.
