Cincinnati Bengals
Andy Dalton (Quarterback): Dalton had his worst game of the season in week 10 and it was against the Texans.... This has not been proven to be a trend by any means however Dalton does play the Cardinals in week 11 and the Rams in week 12. Arizona has had one of the most consistent defenses all season long so starting Dalton is iffy especially with the Cardinals giving up the 7th fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks all season long.
Tyler Eifert (Tight End): Week 10's contest was not Eifert's worst game of the season as he put up a complete dud in week 3 but his downward trend should continue against the Cardinals. The Cardinals have given up the 5th fewest fantasy points to tight ends and currently his quarterback is looking a little shaky. Eifert is a low end TE 2 for week 11.
A.J. Green/Marvin Jones (Wide Receiver): Green has not nearly been putting up the numbers expected of a player his caliber. The trick to Green is him seeing 10 plus targets, when that happens he can put up 100 plus yards and some touchdowns however in 6 games this season Green has failed to see that happen. Now he gets to face Patrick Peterson in lock down coverage all game. Green is a low end WR 3 this week. Jones may be worth a start in the flex this week as he will be the wide receiver seeing easier coverage.
Jeremy Hill/Giovani Bernard (Running Back): Arizona is not a fan of giving up a lot of rushing yards. All season long the Cardinals have given up the 10th fewest fantasy points to running backs and I haven't even mentioned that Hill has not gained over 63 rushing yards all season long. Hill is a solid sit for week 11. Bernard on the other hand has, and even against the toughest defenses has seen some solid production from a secondary role in this offense. It may be a bad matchup but Bernard is seemingly always worth a flex start.
Arizona Cardinals
Michael Floyd/ John Brown/ Larry Fitzgerald (Wide Receiver): Floyd has been a monster this season when he has been healthy. He went up against the Seahawks last week and put up 2 touchdowns and 113 yards, that is some incredible production. At this point the only thing holding him back from being an every week starter is his current minor hamstring injury. If he is healthy he should be started. Brown has fallen into the number 3 wide receiving role since getting injured and this does not help his chances of being that productive. He will be a solid sit in week 11. Fitzgerald tore apart the Seahawks putting up 130 yards receiving on them. He saw 15 targets and was an absolute handful to deal with all night. Fitzgerald is approaching a hot streak as he looks for his 3rd game with over 10 targets and solid fantasy production.
Chris Johnson (Running Back): Johnson struggled last week against the hard hitting Seahawks, his struggles will likely continue against the Bengals. The Bengals have given up the 14th fewest points to running backs this season and will likely put an emphasis on stopping Johnson early in the game.
Carson Palmer (Quarterback): Palmer is a must start, his hot streak is reaching epic proportions. He threw for 300 plus yards and 3 touchdowns against the Seahawks which in itself is ridiculous but regardless of the tough matchup Palmer will likely post another terrific stat line.
