After failing to throw a touchdown pass Week 5, it was the first time in Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton's career he failed to record a touchdown in two straight games. He will look to end his touchdown slump Week 6 at Buffalo.
Dalton has struggled on the road this season. The Bengals are 0-2 in road games, with Dalton throwing for just 488 yards, two touchdowns and three interceptions.
Quarterbacks have had mixed results against Buffalo this season. Quarterbacks are averaging 283.4 passing yards and 19 Fantasy points per week, but they have thrown as many touchdowns (nine) as interceptions. Though, it's probably encouraging for Dalton that four quarterbacks -- Tom Brady, Cam Newton, Geno Smith and Joe Flacco -- have thrown multiple touchdowns against Buffalo.
There's no denying Dalton has been a pretty disappointing Fantasy option in 2013. He is completing a career-high 65.1 percent of his passes through five games, but he has as many interceptions (five) as touchdowns and is averaging a career-low 10.7 yards per completion.
Fantasy owners in need of a bye-week replacement could look to Dalton as a potential option Week 6, but he's hardly a must-start player.
