Wednesday notes: Not always pretty; Peanut takes another crack; Hue tired of jokes

Not a good day for the offense and the quarterbacks and a good day for the defense Wednesday in the second day of mandatory minicamp. But don’t tell that to Bengals offensive coordinator Hue Jackson.

He’s looking to make it tough on the offense with a lot of his calls so that when the time comes, they won’t get flustered and make turnovers.

For instance, the offense set up on the 5-yard line and Jackson was guessing with defensive coordinator Paul Guenther. A reminder. In the mandatory minicamp, there is no contact in shorts and helmets. If Guenther ran an all-out blitz leaving man-to-man coverage, a running play would walk in.
