At some point, we have to marvel at how the Cincinnati Bengals are even at 5-3 right now. Issues on the defense aside, the immense amount of injuries to critical players has been borderline outrageous.
Every NFL team that has an established starting quarterback walks the fine line of the risk of injury to their signal-caller. With the new rules protecting the position, the risk is lessened, but one fluke play can dramatically change the course of a season. The Bengals know this all too well.
Cincinnati is in a good state at the position with Andy Dalton at the helm and he came into Week 9 tied for third in touchdown passes.
