The Bengals remain one of the biggest talking points in the NFL this season. Their 5-0 start has many believing here in Cincinnati but there are still some questioning how good this team really is. Undefeated at this point in the season, for the first time since 1988, the Bengals are looking to head into the bye week with an unblemished record and healthy.

They head to Buffalo’s Ralph Wilson Stadium to take on a Bills team who are littered with injuries and are ripe for the taking. Let’s take a look at today’s matchup between the Bills and Bengals.

Offense

The Bengals offense has been firing on all cylinders and have a good amount of momentum from their performance against the Seahawks last week. Andy Dalton has been playing at an All-Pro level and helped lead the Bengals to that improbable comeback win last week. After the completion of the Thursday night game, Dalton is now fourth in the NFL in total passing yards with 1518. There is no doubt the Bengals have the better weapons on offense. Even with a healthy Sammy Watkins and Shady McCoy for the Bills, the edge goes to the Bengals. The chemistry right now between Dalton and A.J. Green is invaluable.
