No. 3 Andy Dalton vs Tampa Bay

Another one where you’re saying…how is he a top matchup. Don’t yell at me alright, Dalton will bounce back this week. This I know.

The Bengals struggled mightily and got their doors blown off Sunday against the Chiefs. I’m sorry Bengals fans there’s really no other way to put it. Think of it this way, would you rather lose going away and never be in it or lose when your hail mary attempt to force overtime gets stopped at the one? Sorry Bears fans.

It’s been an up and down year for Dalton, that’s obvious. The Bengals, losers of two straight get a troubled Tampa Bay defense at the right time. Dalton has had three really good performances this season, the wins to start the season over Indianapolis and Baltimore and then again in week four against Atlanta. Those are important wins, minus Indianapolis as the Ravens were a missed extra point away from overtime. Sorry Ravens fans.

The Buccaneers are still worst in the league against quarterbacks and have given up 18 touchdowns versus just one interception through Week 7. I love Dalton in this matchup, ride with the Red Rifle.
