I was however, happy to see the bears continue to force turnovers in the post Lovey era. The turnovers are the only reason the Bears won that game. The offense was hit or miss but that is to be expected during the first game with new coaches. I saw plenty enough to be encouraged. Despite one throw under pressure Cutler also looked good.

I am not happy the Bears won (Bengals fan), but I am happy that the Bengals basically outplayed them. And the Bears only forced one turnover (when the fella put the hat on the ball against a WR), the others the Bengals did without assist from the defense (Green allowed one INT off a beautiful pass that hit him right in the mitts).......also the Bears need to send a nice thank you card to Ray Maualuga for the personal foul to end the game and not let the Bengals get a FG try to tie the game....what a brickhead.....never have liked this guy as the center of our defense.....
also not happy about the lack of pressure our vaunted DL put on that punk at QB for the Bears.....
Edit: my favorite thing about the game is that the Bengals are tied for first place, still!...EVERYONE in the division lost......
