Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton has 10 touchdowns and zero turnovers over his last three games.Fantasy Spin:Dalton turned the ball over at least once in each of his first eight games but he's been on fire as of late. His success probably has something to do with playing a reeling Giants team begging for a bye week and then Kansas City and Oakland over the last three games. Hopefully...
