Like Cincinnati Bengals fans everywhere, the duo of Dan Hoard and Dave Lapham had been through seven playoff appearances in the Marvin Lewis era — and seven losses.
That changed for the brilliant duo on Saturday night alongside a record-breaking number of fans in attendance at Paul Brown Stadium for the Bengals’ first playoff win since 1991, a 26-19 escape of the Las Vegas Raiders.
Both guys, just like fans everywhere, went absolutely wild late in the fourth quarter as linebacker Germaine Pratt picked off Derek Carr to seal the deal, ending the drought.
