Quick Take: Bears win but Cutler regresses

Around the League editor Gregg Rosenthal has his takeaways from the game:

From Around the League:
» Lessons from Friday's preseason games

» Giants cornerback Prince Amukamara capped a tumultuous week with a high ankle sprain. The Giants are extremely thin at cornerback. It reminds us a lot of last year at this time. That worked out pretty well.

» After a flawless, explosive performance last week, Jay Cutler came crashing down to Earth with only nine completions and 96 yards on 21 attempts. You might not believe this, but his pass protection wasn't very good.

» Eli Manning could not have looked much more ready for the season than he did in this game. Beware, Cowboys secondary.

» We don't know if the kid can pass protect, but Giants rookie David Wilson sure can run. He started Friday night and played at a different speed than the rest of the game. He finished with seven touches for 75 yards.
