The Bengals allowed 248.3 passing yards per game in 2021, ranking 26th in the league.
Analysis: The Bengals' opponents need to throw a lot to keep up with their high-powered offense, so it's not surprising that the Bengals struggled against the pass overall. Nevertheless, they took a definitive step toward improvement by drafting CB/S Daxton Hill in the first round of April's draft. He may be able to step in right away, and his versatility will be valuable regardless. the Bengals are returning their front seven and are in good shape after registering 42 sacks (11th) last season, so we…read more

The Bengals recorded no sacks or takeaways in the 34-31 win over the Chiefs in Week 17.
Analysis: The Bengals have three key players in COVID-19 protocol: DT Larry Ogunjobi, DE Trey Hendrickson and SS Vonn Bell. QB Case Keenum will start for the Browns, and he isn't a major downgrade from QB Baker Mayfield. The Bengals won't have a ton of upside if Hendrickson isn't pressuring Keenum, but the Browns' run-heavy, low-scoring offense should provide a solid floor for this unit in Week 18.

The Bengals recorded an interception and a sack in the 41-21 win over the Ravens in Week 16.
Analysis: The Ravens started third-string QB Josh Johnson, and he was protected enough to keep the Bengals D/ST from having a massive day. While the Bengals' defense is having a solid season, their linebacker situation is in flux and they probably don't have the capacity to slow down TE Travis Kelce and WR Tyreek Hill. It's best to stay away from Bengals D/ST now that the Chiefs -- who have scored at least 34 points in three straight weeks -- are rolling.

The Bengals recorded three sacks and a fumble recovery in the 15-10 win over the Broncos in Week 15.
Analysis: The Bengals' defense has taken a major step this season, ranking 11th in the league with 21.7 points per game and 16th with 18 total takeaways. It held the Ravens to just 17 points on the road in Week 7, and that was with a healthy QB Lamar Jackson on the other side of the ball. Jackson is uncertain this week with an ankle injury, and he likely won't be 100 percent if he does suit up.

The Bengals recorded five sacks in the 26-23 overtime loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The Bengals now rank second in the league with 37 sacks and 15th with 17 takeaways. They could be without LB Logan Wilson (shoulder) again, and CB Chidobe Awuzie is in COVID-19 protocol. Nevertheless, the Broncos' offense has some serious weaknesses, too. It ranks 20th in the league with 21.2 points per game while QB Teddy Bridgewater has been sacked 29 times through 13 starts. The Bengals can generate fantasy points by getting to Bridgewater, but their pass defense could be more susceptible if…read more

The Bengals recorded four sacks and three takeaways in the 41-22 loss to the Chargers in Week 13.
Analysis: The Bengals' defense wasn't helped much by its offense turning the ball over four times, but it was still a disappointing effort altogether, marking the second time in four weeks that it has given up more than 40 points. The Bengals D/ST has appealing upside this week given the 49ers have coughed up 18 turnovers (11th-most in the league), but there are still question marks with whether WR Deebo Samuel (groin) or RB Elijah Mitchell (concussion/knee) will play. If those two play, the Bengals D/ST…read more

Analysis: The Bengals have generated eight takeaways and nine sacks over the past four games. They rank sixth in the league with 20.6 points allowed per game this season. QB Justin Herbert and the Chargers come to town in Week 13. Herbert has been inconsistent, and the Chargers have averaged 24.8 points per game this year (14th).

The Steelers rank 20th in the league with 22.7 points per game, though they've turned the ball over just nine times in 10 games.

The Bengals recorded two sacks and no turnovers in the 41-16 loss to the Browns in Week 9.
Analysis: The Bengals have had a week to lick their wounds from a brutal divisional loss. However, they'll still be without top CB Trae Waynes (hamstring) this week, and the Raiders rank second in the league with 299 passing yards per game. They'll carry some risk into this game as a result. There's still some upside, though, as the Bengals rank seventh in the league with 2.6 sacks per game, and QB Derek Carr has been sacked on 5.4 percent of his dropback (15th).

The Bengals recorded two sacks, two interceptions and a fumble recovery in the 34-31 loss to the Jets.
Analysis: This was the Bengals' worst game of the season. We shouldn't expect many more of these, as the Bengals still rank sixth in the league with 20.3 points allowed per game and tied for fourth with 21 sacks. The Browns have been fairly safe with the ball this year, ranking 10th with eight turnovers. However, QB Baker Mayfield has been sacked on a whopping 9.7 percent of his dropbacks.

The Bengals recorded five sacks in the 41-17 win over the Ravens in Week 7.
Analysis: The Bengals are officially players in the AFC North, and now they garner a highly favorable matchup against the Jets, who will be without rookie QB Zach Wilson. Wilson's absence likely doesn't hurt the offense too much, but it certainly doesn't help. The Jets have averaged a mere 13.3 points per game while coughing up a whopping 12 turnovers. The Bengals D/ST has a sky-high ceiling, making it an elite play in Week 8.

The Bengals recorded an interception and a sack in the 34-11 win over the Lions in Week 6.
Analysis: The Bengals have been a solid fantasy defense this season, ranking fifth in the league with 18.5 points allowed per game while sitting tied for 10th with 14 sacks. Nevertheless, they'll have their hands full in Week 7 against QB Lamar Jackson and the Ravens, who rank seventh with 28.4 points per game. There is some upside considering Jackson has been sacked 16 times so far, but there's significant risk, too. With six teams on bye this week, they could be a tournament DFS option.

The Bengals gave up 466 total yards and recorded an interception in the 25-22 loss to the Packers in Week 5.
Analysis: The Bengals' defense showed some life to start the season, but they proved they're legit after holding the Packers to just 22 points in regulation. So far, they haven't given up more than 24 points in regulation, and they are tied for seventh in the league with 13 sacks.

Analysis: The Bengals could get Chidobe Awuzie (groin) back in Week 5, but their personnel won't matter much against the Packers. QB Aaron Rodgers hasn't thrown an interception since Week 1. He's been sacked eight times this season, but betting against the Packers' high-powered offense is taking on more risk than necessary. Over the last three weeks, the Packers have averaged 31 points per game.

Now, they get CB Trae Waynes back. The matchup against the Jaguars is ideal, as QB Trevor Lawrence has thrown seven interceptions so far, and the Jags haven't topped 21 points yet.

The Bengals allowed just 206 total yards in and forced a turnover in their Week 2 loss to the Bears.
Analysis: The Bengals have allowed 44 points through two games, adding two takeaways and six sacks in the process. They draw an intriguing matchup in Week 3, as QB Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral) isn't at full strength behind a crumbling offensive line. The Bengals have the firepower to add some pressure, though their secondary is limited unless CB Trae Waynes (hamstring) returns. It'll be tough to trust Bengals D/ST in most fantasy formats, but they're a possible contrarian play in DFS.

CB Trae Waynes (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: The Bengals' defense bent but didn't break in Week 1, allowing 336 passing yards and 403 total yards but just 24 points. It even provided some fantasy utility with a fumble recovery and three sacks. There's some upside against the Bears in Week 2 regardless of who's under center, as their already putrid offensive line is banged up now. There's certainly risk without Waynes in the fold, but Bengals D/ST could be a contrarian DFS play.

CB Trae Waynes (hamstring) has been ruled out for the season opener against the Vikings.
Analysis: Waynes is the team's best cornerback, and his absence could be tough to overcome with Justin Jefferson and Adam Thielen coming to town. Eli Apple -- who has been up and down since entering the league as a first-round pick in 2016 -- is expected to start in Waynes' place. Even if their stout defensive line holds its own against RB Dalvin Cook, the Bengals D/ST simply doesn't have the juice to be counted on in Week 1.

The Bengals are expected to start DEs Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson and DTs D.J. Reader and Larry Ogunjobi on the defensive line in 2021.
Analysis: The Bengals have invested significant cash in their defensive line to help compete in the trenches of the rugged AFC North. While Hubbard and Hendrickson should both give a strong push on the edges, it remains to be seen how the Bengals' secondary shapes up. CBs Trae Waynes, Chidobe Awuzie, Eli Apple and Mike Hilton are all considered sturdy, but only Waynes has shutdown upside. There could be some growing pains; fantasy managers should avoid the headache here.

The Bengals finished 32nd in the league last year with 17 sacks.
Analysis: Nothing went right for the Bengals last year. CB Trae Waynes didn't play a snap due to a pectoral injury. Sam Hubbard produced just two sacks -- a career-worst. Trading away Carlos Dunlap midseason certainly didn't do the Bengals any favors, though, and now they let DE Carl Lawson walk in free agency. While they brought in Trey Hendrickson -- who registered 13.5 sacks last year -- on a four-year, $60 million deal, there's no guarantee he's the upgrade they need. After all, he posted just 6.5…read more

The Bengals allowed 441 total yards and forced a turnover in the 31-20 win over Tennessee in Week 9.
Analysis: The Bengals surprisingly kept the Titans in check and got a signature win out of the deal while extending their turnover streak to seven games. Still, they have no business as a fantasy defense against the Steelers, who are undefeated and average 29.4 points per game. However, Ben Roethlisberger is on the reserve/COVID-19 list and is in danger of missing Week 10 if he tests positive. And if that happens, all bets are off with Mason Rudolph under center.

Analysis: It was another brutal outing for the Bengals' defense, as it failed to take down Baker Mayfield and is now ranked 24th in the league with just 10 sacks through seven games. The team now traded away Carlos Dunlap, who had just one sack but it a constant threat for opposing quarterbacks. The unit's Week 8 matchup against Tennessee isn't one fantasy managers want to target, as the Titans average 31.3 points per game and have turned the ball over just three times this year.

Analysis: The Bengals defense has been recorded seven turnovers and 11 sacks this season, which barely keeps it as a positive fantasy contributor. A Week 7 matchup against the Browns is intriguing, though, as QB Baker Mayfield didn't look like himself last week as he battled through a rib injury that isn't going away anytime soon.

The Bengals let up 332 yards and forced a turnover in a 27-3 win over the Ravens in Week 5.
Analysis: The Bengals predictably struggled against the Ravens, and one turnover and one sack weren't enough to salvage their fantasy day. They lost more than just a game, too, as DT D.J. Reader (quadriceps) was placed on IR and is expected to be out for the season.

The Bengals allowed 429 total yards and forced a turnover in a 33-25 win over the Jaguars in Week 4.
Analysis: The Bengals would benefit greatly if DT Geno Atkins (shoulder) returns to action in Week 5, but that's still up in the air. If he does, it'll help contain the Ravens' third-ranked rushing offense (161 rushing yards per game).

Analysis: The Bengals' defense has been decent so far this season, allowing an average of 24.6 points per game and forcing three turnovers, but the competition has been underwhelming. The Jaguars aren't necessarily a threatening offense, but they did beat the Colts to start the season while putting up 30 points against the Titans in Week 2.

However, the Browns' ground game fueled their success, as the RB tandem of Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt combined 234 total yards. Eagles RB Miles Sanders has a similar skill set to Chubb, and he could be in for a big day if DT Geno Atkins (shoulder) can't play again.

The team was decent against the run, allowing 4.5 yards per carry to running backs, and they were able to sack Taylor three times.

The Bengals allowed 38 points and 502 total yards to the Dolphins in Week 16's overtime loss.
Analysis: The Bengals couldn't pick up any fantasy viability, as they forced just one turnover and sacked Ryan Fitzpatrick twice. The Browns' offense has been flaky lately, but it has also been turnover prone with seven over the past four games while Baker Mayfield has been sacked eight times in that stretch, but five came against the Steelers. It's a high-risk unit with two teams that have nothing to play for, and it doesn't appear worth a DFS stream.

In fact, the Bengals have shown some potential lately, holding the Raiders, Steelers and Jets under 17 points each, combining for 10 sacks and three turnovers in that stretch.

However, any upside is essentially extinguished against the Patriots, as Tom Brady is sacked on just 4.4 percent of dropbacks (fifth) while throwing a pick on 1.3 percent of passes (seventh).

The Bengals yielded 24 points and didn't force a turnover in Week 8's loss to the Rams.
Analysis: The Bengals' defense is keeping them in games, as they haven't allowed more than 27 points since Week 2's loss to the 49ers.
