Cincinnati Bengals Power Rankings - 2013
| Power Rankings | ||||
| WEEK | RECORD | RANK | COMMENT | |
| Week 5 | 2-2 | 11 | A couple steps forward, then a step back for Andy Dalton. He finished 23-of-42 for 206 yards and an interception Sunday, posting the third-worst yards-per-attempt average of his career. | |
| Week 4 | 2-1 | 6 | Andy Dalton has more than doubled his Total QBR against added pressure this year. His 73 QBR is the 10th best in the league, one year after ranking 26th. | |
| Week 3 | 1-1 | 10 | Giovani Bernard offered a nice change of pace for the Bengals. Cincinnati averaged 7.2 yards per play on Bernard touches and 4.9 yards per play not involving Bernard Monday. | |
| Week 2 | 0-1 | 10 | Good start for Andy Dalton, with two touchdowns to A.J. Green and connecting on all 10 attempts to tight ends Tyler Eifert and Jermaine Gresham. | |
| Week 1 | 10-6 | 9 | Andy Dalton has to handle the blitz better to win in the AFC North. Dalton was sacked a league-high 20 times facing at least five rushers last season. | |
| Preseason | 10-6 | 9 | The Bengals added some toughness by signing linebacker James Harrison before the draft and brought more big-play potential by using their first two picks on tight end Tyler Eifert and running back Giovani Bernard. (Hensley) | |
