Some these takes today are prime game day form.  The worst (not you) but others calling the defense awful on the Caleb TD .
That really cracked me up:

We actually had great pressure from the front 4, the play lasted 10 seconds and not one WR was open, and that was the Bears #1 offense vs our 2's & 3's.

When you pull the receiver down how can it not be blatant? Did you watch the play?

He got beat and pulled him down to avoid the tudd.

Not a good day for newton.

On the positive side, the punter had a nice punt inside the 10 and a nice boot out of the end zone across the 50.

Gotta say the bears have a ton of weapons. Their backup TE with two tudds and some sure-handed grabs. He looks solid.

Not a bad showing in the first half overall on defense considering the bengals played backups against starters. They are getting some good work in today and a great opportunity to learn and get better.
