The streak is over.
The Cincinnati Bengals beat the Las Vegas Raiders, 26-19, in Saturday's wild-card matchup, earning their first postseason victory and ending an eight-game playoff losing streak that dated back more than three decades.
The game came down to the final moments, partially thanks to a questionable roughing-the-passer call against the Bengals on Raiders QB Derek Carr and keeping alive a game replete with shaky whistles. But Carr took advantage, converting 3rd and 17 and 3rd and 10 passes on their last drive to keep the Raiders alive.
It took three stops by the Bengals' defense on goal to go from their 9-yard line to seal the franchise-changing win.
