Joe Burrow, Bengals Snap NFL Playoff Drought with Win Over Derek Carr, Raiders
At long last, the Cincinnati Bengals are playoff winners.
Cincinnati defeated the Las Vegas Raiders 26-19 in Saturday's AFC Wild Card Round at Paul Brown Stadium. Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase led the way for the victors, who won a playoff game for the first time since the 1990 season.
A solid showing from Derek Carr was not enough for the Raiders, who remain without a postseason victory since the 2002 campaign.
Las Vegas had an opportunity to force overtime in the final two minutes, but Carr's fourth-down throw near Cincinnati's end zone was intercepted by Germaine Pratt.
