Andy Dalton & More Fantasy Football Tips

The Bengals aren’t as anxious about Tyler Eifert as well, who did leave the game with a concussion which broke up the QB-TE pairing that might have been responsible more than anything for the Bengals taking their game to a new level on offense, but Eifert should be cleared to play in San Francisco and even if he isn’t, the Bengals don’t have long term concerns over him.

AJ McCarron has the potential to lead this team to the Bengals fifth straight playoff appearance, and could clinch the AFC North with a winnable game in San Francisco and the Steelers hosting the Denver Broncos.

The Cincinnati Bengals have been dreaming of the postseason ever since the team’s lengthy undefeated start.

“Most definitely we’d like to see them again”, defensive tackle Steve McLendon said. The black and gold welcomes Vonn Miller and the Denver Broncos’ top-ranked defense to Heinz Field on Sunday in what is still a must-win game. He praised the quarterback’s arm and knowledge on the field and told NFL.com that he does not want the quarterback handing the ball off every play. The Bengals defense is allowing 17.6 points and 338.8 yards per game with 16 interceptions, 34 sacks, and eight fumble recoveries. AJ McCarron can play.

Even if Dalton were to miss the remainder of the regular season, Cincinnati is a lock to make the playoffs.

Three of the AFC’s most talked-about quarterbacks are now sidelined with injuries, although each could be back at the helm of their first-place teams for the playoffs.

“It’s always us and somebody”, Tomlin said. I’m just going to ask our guys to be professional, to be the professionals that they are, to understand that our play is what speaks volumes and to stay away from some of that childishness.

The chattering class had a field day, expressing outrage and superiority that McCarron would dare claim he was Tom Brady.

“We went through a good week last week, gave him the weekend off, so we’ll see where we’re at”, Kubiak said.

Blaine Gabbert doesn’t win consecutive starts. A few things we won’t tolerate: personal attacks, obscenity, vulgarity, profanity (including expletives and letters followed by dashes), commercial promotion, impersonations, incoherence, proselytizing and SHOUTING.

The other advantage is who McCarron will face. Jones missed Week 14 with a foot injury, while Iloka left the game with a groin injury. Running back DeAngelo Williams punched the ball into the end zone with 3:49 remaining to ice the game. Last he checked, he’s just doing his job, one of the reasons he barely noticed all the chirping done on both sides in Pittsburgh’s decisive 33-20 victory.

McCarron, who had thrown a total of four passes in the National Football League in a mop-up role, took over and threw a pair of touchdowns, but also a pair of interceptions, one of which was returned for a touchdown that put the Steelers in control.

And so here was McCarron’s take on his current position: “You’ve got to love pressured moments”. That’s when the great ones really shine. I’m not going to get caught up in it. I’m not going to make more of a deal out of it than what it is. It didn’t work.
