Cincinnati at Green Bay — The Game


Here is the second gallery of images from Sunday’s game — Cincinnati at Green Bay. Here, QB Andy Dalton throws on one of the first plays of the game.


Early action of the Packers’ defense looking to stop the Bengals’ run game.


It was a very hot day, and the folks on the east side of the Lambeau Field stands looked into the sun almost the whole game. You might want to take that into account if you’re spending a lot of money on tickets during the early season.


RB Joe Mixon, who the defense saw a lot of on Sunday, side-steps CB Kevin King (#20), who has been taken out of the action.


Mixon gets the ball again, as LB Blake Martinez (#50), DT Kenny Clark (#97), and DE Dean Lowry (#94) are neutralized, leaving S Josh Jones (#27) unblocked and in pursuit.
