Raiders 19-26 Bengals summary: score, stats, highlights | NFL Wild Card Weekend game

Update:
The Cincinnati Bengals held off a final drive from the Las Vegas Raiders in Cincinnati to win their first play-off game in 31 years, 19-26..

Bengals win a playoff game for the first time in 31 years!

It all came down to the last play of the match, with the Raiders seven points behind and needing a touchdown, which they couldn't get. The Bengals win in the playoffs for the first time since 1991!

Joe Burrow threw for 146 yards and two touchdowns in the first half where the Bengals went behind after six minutes from a Carlson FG, but looked in control from the moment they scored their first TD with five minutes of the first half remaining, with Uzomah catching a seven-yard pass.

The Bengals pushed their lead out to 6-20 close to the end of the first half, thanks to a controversial TD which should have been denied. Burrow’s neat feet kept him in bounds to throw to Tyler Boyd, but an official erroneously blew the whistle as he threw. The down should have been repeated but was allowed to stand. The NFL have said they'll comment on the play after the game.

The Raiders coped with their disappointment to put together an 80-yard drive with the clock running down to bag a TD and make it a seven-point game at half-time.

Bengals picked up a FG after a 40-yard drive at the start of the second half. 

Raiders' Brandon Facyson ruled out with concussion as is Divine Deablo.

What a game. The Raiders were struggling in the first half but made a comeback in the second and had a chance to tie up the game with seconds left. An interception on 4th and goal ruined that opportunity and ended the Bengals' playoff drought.

The Bengals get a shoutout from the White House

The Bengals clinching the AFC North and making it into the playoffs is pretty exciting. Even White House press secretary Jen Psaki thought so. On Friday, as she was ending her press briefing, she gave a shoutout to the Bengals:

“One last thing. The Bengals are playing tomorrow. I’m just giving it a shout out so that my husband will be excited at home. They haven’t won a playoff game in 31 years.”

as.com

Derek is incredibly smart, and he’s one of the most natural quarterbacks I’ve ever been around as far as how easily he spins the ball.

Brian Callahan, Bengals Offensive Coordinator

Bengals could break the Curse of Bo

The Raiders and Bengals both ended their regular seasons at 10-7. The Bengals ended their season as the AFC North champions by beating the Chiefs in week 17. They were able to rest their starters and relax in week 18. The Raiders clinched their playoff berth in week 18, with an overtime win over the Chargers, so they’ll be coming tired into a road game in cold temps.

The Curse of Bo could very well be broken tonight.

The Bengals haven’t won a playoff game since 1990, 31 years ago. They beat the Oilers in the wild card round but lost in the divisional to the Raiders. In that game, their star running back Bo Jackson suffered a hip injury which ended up ending his career. Since then, the Bengals have lost all eight of their playoff appearances, suffering from the Curse of Bo.

Today, the Bengals will have the opportunity to beat the team that put them into this curse in the first place and break it once and for all.

The Bengals won their last matchup against the Raiders 31-13 and since then, quarterback Joe Burrow has regained strength in his knee and thrown for 525 and 446 yards over the last two games. He led the Bengals to a sweep over both the Steelers and the Ravens, as well as a win over the Chiefs to win their division.

The Raiders defense is struggling with 25.8 points allowed per game and 114.3 rushing. They couldn’t stop Joe Mixon in their last meet up and it’s not likely they’ll be able to this time either, especially in freezing temperatures.

as.com

Freezing temps expected for Bengals vs Raiders

The weather for today’s game is going to be nippy. There was snow in Cincinnati earlier in the morning, but it didn’t stick, so the field should be dry but temperatures will be just around freezing during the game. The high is set to be around 33 degrees and winds at about eight to ten miles per hour.

That doesn’t bode well for Derek Carr, who has a history of losing in temperatures below 37 (five losses in that situation, to be exact). This will be the quarterback’s first playoff appearance, but now he’s up against the Bengals and Mother Nature.
