Coach Speak: What to make of the Bengals Week 2 loss to the Bears

Every week on Coach Speak I’ll give my take on the Bengals’ performance and what the coaches have to say after the game. This week, the offense featured a lot of quick passes out of empty formations, but not many shots deep down the field. This is odd since the Bengals drafted Joe Burrow’s favorite deep threat in the 1st Round of the 2021 NFL Draft. They also struggled to get the run game going, failed to convert third downs, and turned the ball over a whopping four times in the 2nd half. What is going on, and what did Zac Taylor have to say about it? While Chase has looked impressive, he has not been perfect. What can he do to help out Burrow on some of the deep balls they have attempted? Can this offensive line get the job done? Is Jackson Carman ready for action?
