If the Cincinnati Bengals had fallen to 1-4 into their Week 6 bye, many would be calling for the heads of Marvin Lewis and Andy Dalton. After showing signs of improvement the past two weeks, it was unclear how the Bengals would fare against the 3-1 Bills and their stout defense.

Here’s the thing: is there a powerhouse in the AFC this year?
