Bengals' Andy Dalton forecasted to be QB18 in Week 6
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton is projected to throw for 283.4 yards with 2.0 touchdowns and 1.4 interceptions on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
What It Means:
Dalton is 15th in standard league points per game (19.0) while the Steelers have allowed the second most points per game to opposing quarterbacks (25.2). The Steelers' pass defense is probably not as bad as that number indicates, as it is 16th in net yards per dropback and eighth in completion rate; the unit has struggled with big plays (12.6) and an unsustainably high touchdown rate (6.3%).
The Bengals are 2.5-point home favorites with an implied team total of 27.75. Our models project Dalton to score 18.5 FanDuel points at a cost of $7,500 on Sunday.
