The defense which seems to have been on the field for most of the 2nd half held the Bears to a FG to make it 20-3 with 6:30 to play.

In honor of Andy Dalton, Burrow misses an open receiver on a long pass throwing it 3 yards out of bounds.

Burrow to Chase for a 42 yard touchdown to make it 20-10 with 4:39 to play. The LSU connection.

On side kick here we come.

The Bengals get a big interception to get back into this one for the time being but I'm afraid there is not enough time left. I hope I'm wrong.

TD Tee Higgins!

This is a sad display of football and at first blush Fields is terrible. 

Touchdown to Higgins it is now 20-17 with 3:39 to play.

On a side note Fields has not played very well at all today.

Great minds think alike@theguruI just typed the same thing. I'll bet he does not throw it here and the defense should play that way.

Fields will be running the ball on this possession.

Nailed it!!

I should be used to this after 50 years. The Bengals just tease you get back into it then miss two tackles that allow a first down. Unreal!!

On that 3rd down play knowing the situation they had to squeeze the pocket and keep Fields from running the ball. D end got too deep on the rush.

What a hold on that run. Bears lineman had his left arm fully extended holding a Bengal right at the point of impact.
