Before defeating the Las Vegas Raiders last Saturday, the Cincinnati Bengals’ last playoff victory was on January 6, 1991, a 41-14 thrashing of the Houston Oilers.
Just how long ago was that?
Well, most of the other Cincy Jungle writers were so young (or unborn) that I was the person asked to write this blog.
Just to give you an idea what life was like back then, the biggest event of the year was perhaps the Gulf War, which started only four days after the Bengals lost to the Los Angeles Raiders in the AFC Divisional round and ended about a month later.
