Andy Dalton had the second-worst game of his career Sunday. The Cincinnati Bengals starting QB completed 16 of 31 passes for 170 yards and no touchdowns in a shutout loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He also threw four interceptions, had one lost fumble, and was sacked five times for a loss of 26 yards.
Fantasy Football start/sit advice, Texans vs. Bengals TNF: Andy Dalton
Can Dalton rebound from his Week 1 collapse? We break down the fantasy impact.


This week, Dalton is facing another tough defense in the Houston Texans. The Texans D gave up 29 points to the Jacksonville Jaguars offense in Week 1, but they only gave up 125 yards and one passing touchdown to opposing QB Blake Bortles. The Texans did lose starting linebacker Brian Cushing in the second half with a concussion. He is doubtful to return in a short week.
Fantasy impact: Dalton will not bounce back this week. The Bengals offense struggled all around. They do not have a running game to help Dalton out and he is struggling to connect with Pro Bowler A.J. Green. The Texans are going to come to Cincinnati with a chip on their shoulder as well. Even though Houston will be missing a key player in the middle of their defense, the Bengals do not have enough offensive weapons to exploit that matchup.
