Pros

- This week, Dalton Kincaid is anticipated by the predictive model to rank in the 96th percentile among TEs with 6.6 targets.
- The leading projections forecast Dalton Kincaid to be a more important option in his offense’s passing game this week (19.0% projected Target Share) than he has been this year (13.8% in games he has played).
- The Buffalo offensive line grades out as the 3rd-best in the league this year in protecting the QB, which has a positive impact on all passing offense statistics across the board.
- Dalton Kincaid grades out as one of the top pass-game tight ends this year, averaging a fantastic 37.0 adjusted yards per game while checking in at the 84th percentile.
Cons

- Opposing quarterbacks teams have been unwilling to rely on the passing game too much against the Cincinnati Bengals, totaling the 7th-fewest attempts in the NFL (a mere 33.3 per game) this year.
