The Bengals' defense is not holding up their end of the bargain.
Once again on Sunday, Cincinnati’s worst-ranked defense let the offense down. The Bengals offense scored 42 points against the Bears at home, but it wasn’t enough to get the win. Even after the offense rallied back with two touchdowns in the final two minutes of the game to retake the lead, the defense could not get one stop to win the game. Instead, the defense allowed Bears quarterback Caleb Williams to convert a third-and-10 and then connect with tight end Colston Loveland on a 58-yard touchdown to win the game.
