The Cincinnati Bengals are through two preseason games with only one left to go before the team will start preparing for their Week 1 matchup with the Cleveland Browns. We'll see if their struggling defense is up to the task after a tough exhibition phase, but the offense is definitely humming.
As discouraging as Cincinnati's defensive effort has been, at least the preseason is a time of trial and error for NFL teams. It's a time for teams to decide which players will grab the last few spots on a roster, and for starters to shake off a bit of rust as they head into the regular season.
