Bears Defeat Bengals 27-3 in Preseason Game

The Chicago Bears defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 27-3 in a preseason game, but concerns remain about their offensive consistency, particularly with starter Caleb Williams displaying erratic 'hero ball' tendencies. Despite some spectacular plays by Williams, including a viral touchdown run, the victory was somewhat hollow since much of it came against the Bengals' backups. Meanwhile, the Atlanta Falcons' Jase McClellan scored his first pro touchdown but fell short on a two-point conversion attempt in a 13-12 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. The Bengals faced a rough joint practice with the Bears, losing key players to injuries and dealing with poor performances from Joe Burrow and Tee Higgins.
