Bengals 30, Bears 27
After a breakout season last year, CB Kyle Fuller earned a well-deserved contract extension in the off-season. Fuller displayed exactly why the Bears signed him to a long-term deal when he picked off Pro Bowl QB Andy Dalton for a 47-yard pick six in the first quarter. While the Chicago eventually fell to the Bengals in Cincinnati, Fuller's big play bodes well for another big season for the Baltimore native.

Browns 20, Giants 10
QB Tyrod Taylor and the Cleveland Browns defeated T Nick Becton and the N.Y. Giants. Not surprisingly, Taylor was spot-on in his debut for the Browns before eventually turning the spotlight over to QB Baker Mayfield. In limited time, Taylor completed all five of his passes for 99 yards and one touchdown with a "perfect" passer rating of 158.3. He also carried the ball once for a two-yard rush.
