AJ Green, Andy Dalton, Mohamed Sanu's Post-Week 14 Fantasy Reaction

The Cincinnati Bengals had a rough go of it against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. But hey, the silver lining was that Andy Dalton and A.J. Green posted huge afternoons for fantasy owners!    

Well, that's the silver lining for Dalton and Green owners. Not such a silver lining for the team or its fans, I suppose.

The oft-maligned Dalton played his part in the passing game, throwing for over 300 yards and two touchdowns and rushing for another. While he did lose a fumble, it's hard to fault Dalton for the loss. Don't be tempted by this one-week siren's song, however—Dalton remains a QB2 who can't be trusted on a weekly basis. He simply hasn't consistently produced this season.

Green, meanwhile, couldn't be stopped nor contained. He had a career high in receiving yards as he went for over 200 yards and a score, continuing a string of dominance that has seen him reach double-digit points in four straight games and five of his last six. He's a locked-and-loaded WR1 for the fantasy playoffs.

A.J. Green	11	224	1	15	28
Mohamed Sanu	2	16	0	3	1

Mohamed Sanu has earned a spot on your bench, however. He's now gone for double-digit points just once in his last five games, clearly trending down as Green is trending up. That isn't a coincidence, folks—Green is the No. 1 option, and Sanu is simply a secondary target that isn't getting enough looks to make him a viable fantasy starter.

Hit me up on Twitter—I'll answer your fantasy questions and tweet some corny jokes, too. It's more fun than wearing the same headphones as A.J. Green.
