Similar to our thought process in attacking the Houston Texans with a defense, another offense struggling with a backup quarterback is the Denver Broncos. With Brock Osweiler expected to start again, the Cincinnati Bengals are another great streaming option.

Since taking over for Trevor Siemian two weeks ago, Osweiler has thrown more interceptions (three) than touchdowns (two), and each of the two opposing teams to face Osweiler have finished the week as a top-10 fantasy defense (granted the New England Patriots did it last week on the back of their special teams). Osweiler wasn't sacked versus the Patriots in Week 10, but New England ranks a meager 26th in sacks on the year. Against the Philadelphia Eagles the week before, though, Osweiler was sacked three times.

Osweiler could be under pressure often this coming week as the Bengals rank seventh in the league in sacks (26). The Bengals have posted multiple sacks in six out of nine games this season, and they've finished as a top-12 scoring defense in five of those games.

The Bengals are 2.5-point underdogs in this matchup, which has an ugly 39.5-point over/under, the third-lowest on the week. In what is projected to be a defensive slugfest, the Bengals make for an appealing streaming option.
