If this is really a season where Marvin Lewis must win in order to keep his job, he sure didn't get off to the start he wanted.

The Cincinnati Bengals were blanked by the Baltimore Ravens, 20-0, in one of the uglier games on the Week 1 docket for fantasy players.

Trying to find stars on either side of the field was a tough proposition for sure. Joe Flacco, playing in his first game of the year after skipping the preseason, was only asked to throw the ball 17 times for the game while Terrance West and Buck Allen did all the heavy lifting. The two Baltimore backs combined for 151 yards on 40 carries, and West scored one of the two Ravens touchdowns on the day. The other belonged to Jeremy Maclin, a slant that went the 48-yard distance late in the first half that opened up a two-score lead.

Andy Dalton did the rest for the Ravens. He was picked off four times (and fumbled once), including three in the first half to lead to this disastrous outcome. Dalton finished with a laughable -3.00 Dober Fantasy Points for the day.

The Bengals only had two players in the entire game log four Dober Fantasy Points, A.J. Green and Giovani Bernard.
