Cincinnati Bengals – Fantasy Forecast – Week 13
Cincinnati Bengals at San Diego Chargers
Play ‘Em If You Got ‘Em
A.J. Green
#4 Ranked WR
The Chargers give up a lot of points to WRs and Green is an above average WR. Dalton really struggled the last time they played but they had a bye week to figure out the issues so expect a big week from Green. Fingers crossed Dalton pulls it together.
Giovani Bernard
#16 Ranked RB
In Week 9, Bernard scored 21 fantasy points. In Week 10, he scored 14 fantasy points and in Week 11 he scored 8 points. So while he is not trending in the right direction, he is still scoring enough points to qualify him as a RB2. The Chargers are a mediocre defense in defending RBs so Bernard should be able to score you a good amount of points.
Gut Calls
Bengals Defense
#14 Ranked DEF
The Bengals have one of the top DEFs in the league this year, but they play the Chargers who have allowed the 3rd fewest points to DEFs this year. We are getting closer and closer to December, which is Dear Philip’s favorite time of year. They won’t be a bad play but check the waiver wire to see if there is a team out there with a better match-up.
Bench Warmers
Andy Dalton
#8 Ranked QB
This is a crap shoot. Dalton scored 10 TDs in the past four games, but he has also thrown nine INTs in the past four games. That equals out to very average fantasy points. So, what does this mean? It means he throws enough TDs to have his team around him score fantasy points worthy of starts but it means you should bench Dalton for being unpredictable.
