3. Cincinnati Bengals vs Minnesota Vikings

The Bengals offense didn’t look good last week against the Steelers, but coming home to face the Vikings looks to be just what they need for a bounce-back performance. In their lat three home games, the Bengals have scored 42, 41, and 49 points and are 6-0 at Paul Brown Stadium this year. Some of those numbers were due to competition level, but they have another great matchup this week as the Vikings come to town.

Over the past three weeks, the Vikings have allowed the second-most yards in the league (426.7). No team has allowed more passing yards over that span, and last week they struggled even though they ultimately did get the win at home over the Eagles.

Cincinnati’s offense should be able to pick things back up this week, and I expect good games from Andy Dalton, A.J. Green, and Giovani Bernard. Rolling the dice with another Bengals receiver could pay off, but it’s hard to tell which one of the secondary options will get the looks on any given week for Cincinnati. Marvin Jones is a high-risk, high-reward flex consideration as is BenJarvus Green-Ellis.
