Cincinnati @ Chicago
Team Totals: Bears 24, Bengals 22
After purposely limiting Joe Burrow to 32 dropbacks in his first start since last Week 11’s ACL/MCL tear, expect the Bengals to allow Burrow to let it rip more in Sunday’s bout with the Bears, whose once-proud but now-rag tag secondary was blowtorched by Matthew Stafford in Week 1 for 12.3 yards per attempt — the league’s second-highest Opening Day average — plus three TDs and zero turnovers in L.A.’s 34-14 win. Burrow did take five Week 1 sacks and is far from out of the woods from a protection standpoint, but his game-one play and this week’s plus draw justify Burrow’s low-end QB1 playability. … Cincinnati’s offseason coachspeak regarding Joe Mixon held true in last week’s win over Minnesota; operating as a legit every-down back, Mixon banked a league-high 33 touches on a 78% snap rate.
