2. Cincinnati Bengals (Last week: 3)
The Broncos are the class of the AFC, but it’s hard to argue that they’re playing better than Cincinnati, which is clicking on all cylinders heading into their Week 4 bye. The Bengals have a tough slate beginning Week 5, which will tell us even more about this AFC contender.
What to know: The vaunted Bengals defense has limited opponents to a 46.7 completion percentage on throws of five yards or more downfield, which is second best only to the Bills.
