This market will resolve to "Yes" if the named team defense/special teams (D/ST) unit finishes the 2026-27 NFL regular season (Weeks 1 through 18) ranked among the top 12 D/ST units by total fantasy points under standard PPR (points-per-reception) scoring per the default scoring of ESPN Fantasy Sports. Otherwise, that market will resolve to "No". Only regular-season games count; postseason (playoff) games are excluded. If two or more D/ST units are tied such that more than 12 would qualify for the top 12, the tie will be broken by higher fantasy points per game average for the 2026 NFL regular season, and if a tie still persists, by team name in alphabetical order, so that exactly 12 D/ST units are classified as top 12. If the 2026-27 NFL regular season is cancelled, postponed past January 26, 2027, 11:59 PM ET, or the rankings cannot be determined within this timeframe, all markets in this event will resolve to "No". The resolution source will be official season-total statistics as reported by ESPN Fantasy Sports (https://www.espn.com/fantasy/).Houston Texans, Denver Broncos, and Seattle Seahawks anchor consensus rankings for 2026 fantasy D/ST scoring due to elite pass-rush depth, turnover-forcing secondaries, and favorable schedules. The Texans benefit from a defensive-minded coaching staff and proven front-seven production, while the Broncos and Seahawks leverage recent top finishes and continuity. The Los Angeles Rams rose sharply after offseason additions including Myles Garrett and secondary reinforcements like Trent McDuffie, boosting projected sacks and points allowed. Other contenders such as the Vikings, Chargers, and Jaguars feature strong metrics in yards per play and EPA but face tougher upcoming matchups or bye-week challenges. Preseason injury reports, final roster cuts, and early-season form will shape which units sustain fantasy output through forced fumbles, interceptions, and defensive touchdowns.
