The Cincinnati Bengals are officially in the win column for 2017 while Cleveland Browns fans have to wonder when their misery will end.

The 31-7 final score in favor of Cincinnati tells a fair story of just how lopsided this Week 4 game really was. The only sin for the Bengals is that they couldn't finish their shutout when Duke Johnson scored from a yard out with just under two minutes left to play.

It was the first time this season that Andy Dalton truly looked comfortable in a game, as he went 25 of 30 for 286 yards and four touchdowns. For the season to date, Dalton had amassed just 22.74 Dober Fantasy Points. On Sunday, he had 28.34 DFP.

Dalton actually led the team in rushing in addition to being an elite passer, but that wasn't the biggest shock of the day. The stunner of all stunners was that Tyler Kroft was the leading fantasy receiver for the Bengals on the afternoon with his six receptions, 68 yards and two scores. Kroft was only tight end in the fold due to the fact that Tyler Eifert was out with a knee injury.

Johnson had a fantastic day for the Browns, catching nine passes for 47 yards to go with his rushing touchdown.

Rookie DeShone Kizer was worth just 3.72 DFP, the second time in three games he was worth less than five DFP. You may want to play against this kid until further notice.
