4 winners and 3 losers from the Bengals’ 27-3 loss to the Bears

The Cincinnati Bengals lost to the Chicago Bears 27-3 in Week 2 of the preseason. Though Cincinnati's starting defense showed promise, the Bears dominated the rest of the way in a game marred by rain and penalties.

Fortunately, the Bengals did evaluate some of their backups. Here are the best and worst from the game.

Winners

Matt Lee

The rookie center out of Miami held up nicely in pass protection throughout the game, including this impressive play against 6’6” defensive tackle Gervon Dexter.
