Damn, Cohen is shifty.

And there goes Howard.

And there goes Nugent missing an extra point!

If the penalty for illegal forward pass is 5yds from the previous line, that was a terrible call by the ref. After the penalty they spotted the ball almost at the 31. MT passed before the 31. If penalty is 5 from where he illegally passed, it's a screwy penalty.

Trubisky looks really impressive today.

If Cohen, Trubisky, Howard and Shaheen can all be impact players, this offense will be very good for a long time.

Very good half I'd dare say. I can't remember more than one bad throw from him in this half. Too bad Shaheen couldn't get hold of that one.

By God, Kendall Wright is a real, live NFL WR.

Shaheen having a game. He could have a couple of TD's if not for a great play.

The Bears are pretty good at it. Bengals are bad at stopping it this year. Missing 5 defensive starters. And a Monday night hangover. Perfect storm.

Wright looks like a great fit as a slot WR going forward. Hoping we re-sign him.

This was a good play against the spread. Seems obvious.

OMG, I do believe we have ourselves a laugher. Who'd'a thunk it?

Best game by Mitchell. Great to see him make that progression.

His play rest of the season is the most important.

They've been phenomenal. This is also what happens when you got a good balance between your rushing and your passing game. Mitch has made his teammates better today and they've made him better too.
