Week 10 SNF Chargers vs. Steelers Start 'Em Sit 'Em Picks feat. Kimani Vidal, Keenan Allen, DK Metcalf

Kimani Vidal's Los Angeles Chargers are set to face off against DK Metcalf's Pittsburgh Steelers. The game is set to be significant in both division races. The Steelers are looking to hold off a surging, healthy Baltimore Ravens squad. Meanwhile, Los Angeles is looking to keep pace with the Denver Broncos and hold off the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West.

However, managers are looking to solidify or improve their standings in Week 10 with the playoffs on the horizon. As such, picking the best players is key. Here's a look at the players to start and those to avoid ahead of the upcoming Sunday Night Football matchup.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are leading the AFC North, but it's not because of any statistical dominance on either side of the ball. The Los Angeles Chargers are likely to win the contest, so the team's starters are the best option to start this week.

Kimani Vidal had a down week in Week 9, but with Omarion Hampton expected to be out until at least Week 13 (CBS Sports), Los Angeles has little choice but to use the back. He carried the ball 12 times in Week 9 against the Tennessee Titans and faces a much weaker defense this time around.

Pittsburgh's defense has uncharacteristically struggled on every level this season, and both Oronde Gadsden II and Ladd McConkey have seen a consistent reception share over the last month.

Must Starts

• Kimani Vidal
• Ladd McConkey
• Keenan Allen
• Oronde Gadsden II
• Justin Herbert

Pittsburgh's offense has struggled to pass and rush this season, with yardage marks well below average. However, they have the 13th-best scoring offense, which means that for a Steelers player to do well, they will need to score. There are better players available on most teams that can get yards and score. As such, most of the skill position players can be avoided.

DK Metcalf had just six yards against the Indianapolis Colts, so there's a chance of a hangover carrying into the game against Los Angeles. Calvin Austin III should also be avoided, as he has finished with fewer than 50 yards in five of the last six games.

Kenneth Gainwell's role on the offense has also been essentially erased with Jaylen Warren back in full command of the running back room. Lastly, avoid the Steelers' defense if you can, with the team giving up at least 31 points in two of its last three games.

Must Sits

• DK Metcalf
• Calvin Austin III
• Jonnu Smith
• Kenneth Gainwell
• Steelers D/ST
