Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton was absolutely horrible against the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. He completed just 10 of his 33 passes for 86 yards with three interceptions and two sacks. That's good for a 2.0 passer rating and a total QBR of just 4.3. No bueno.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 11: Andy Dalton
Andy Dalton was a disaster in Week 10. Do fantasy owners have any reason to get him back in their lineups this week?

On top of that, Dalton has barely been a QB2 in fantasy leagues after being a top-eight option last season. Obviously the loss of receiver A.J. Green in the middle of the season has proved costly, but Green is somewhat close to 100 percent for a favorable matchup against the New Orleans Saints this week.
The Saints are only the 18th-toughest matchup for fantasy quarterbacks, but they’re the 27th-toughest for receivers. That bodes well for how the Bengals tend to distribute the ball, so Dalton should have himself a nice bounce-back.
Fantasy impact: Still, he’s really been too disappointing to be counted on right now. Fantasy owners should view him as a QB14-18 this week, but he certainly has huge upside.
