I am starting the Bengals D over _____ in Week 1 (1 Viewer)

Earlier this week I picked 'em up. Sluggish offense before an overrated rookie QB was thrusted into the lineup week 1. Cincy should have no fear of playing 8/9 in the box. I expect Baltimore to pick up about 200 rushing yards, but maybe 150 in the air. A few t/os, quite a few sacks and no more than 17 pts.

 
Depends on your scoring system. If you get lots of points for allowing minimal yardage, then the Bengals look good. But if scoring is weighted more heavily to turnovers and sacks, I could see the Ravens playing extremely conservatively, using max-protect on certain passing downs, and trying to grind out a typical 12-10 Ravens win, allowing few turnovers or sacks.

 
Picked them up this week too. Flacco was shaky against back-up D's playing vanilla schemes in Preseason. Heap has not been practicing much and McGahee is questionable. I smell a shut out.
