After spending multiple days in Chicago for a joint practice and the second preseason game of the year against the Chicago Bears, the Cincinnati Bengals left with various injuries, sloppy play, and sloppy weather.

After returning to Cincinnati, Dave Lapham joined Dave Berk to discuss the events of the past few days with a focus on the Bengals' 27-3 loss against the Bears, where they played almost all backups against the Bears front-line players.

Who stepped forward with important performances as the days count down until the Bengals must reduce their roster to the NFL mandatory 53?

All that and more in the latest Dave Lapham In The Trenches, presented by First Star Logistics.
