That last play right there tells you all you need to know about the Bengals defense! The Bears last week against the Ravens defense only rushed for 96 and 372 total yards. So far in today in just a half they already have 123 rushing yards and 211 total yards. 

Bears has to settle for a 24 yard FG to make it 17-13 Bears. Chicago gets the ball to start the 2nd half.

Tee Higgins!! My goodness did we need that! Bengals take the lead back at 20-17 with still 1:12 left in the first half.

Oh my Tee Higgins, a special talent for sure.

Touchdown Bengals!!

That will be the top catch of the weekend in the NFL.

New York should take a look at that! 

There is another problem, we can't challenge inside of two minutes, that play has to be reviewed.

If something is better I can't wait to see it.

The Bears may be looking for a new kicker but I don't know if that one was tipped or not.  Either way, two misses. 

Thank goodness the Bears have a terrible kicker. I think we got a finger on that one. The Bengals led 20-17 at the half.

Only way the Bengals win this game is get a turnover or two. Have to win the turnover battle in the second half. Bengals defense is hot, stinking trash - especially the run defense.

Yes and No on winning.  The Bears are nothing special so they could break down too.

Who Dey!!

We looked soft on that gang tackle at the goal line to keep the Bears out on 2nd down. 

TD Bears.

We get a break as the Bears get a delay of game penalty at the goal line but it doesn't matter they get a touchdown and go back up 24-20 with 8:11 to play in the 3rd quarter. The only chance we probably have to win today is for our 3 or 4 possessions we will get the rest of the game we need to score a touchdown on each of them.
