Bengals QB Joe Burrow said their kicker Evan McPherson did a couple of warm up kicks before the game winner then told backup QB Brandon Allen: "Well, looks like we're going to the AFC Championship Game." A few moments later, he nailed a 52-yarder to win it. Legendary ❄️

Bengals rookie kicker Evan McPherson is a perfect 8/8 on FGs in the playoffs. Clutch.

Near the end of the first half, Bengals RB Joe Mixon made sure to deliver the football right to the official so he could set the ball down as soon as possible. Last Sunday's Cowboys game was a reminder for all players. pic.twitter.com/P059FXgoeT

20 seconds left. Bengals need one chunk play before they can kick a FG to win the game. They haven't been able to protect Joe Burrow and the Titans are NOT allowing Ja'Marr Chase to get behind them. BANG! Burrow to Chase for 19-yards vs 2 man trail

Bengals CB Mike Hilton on the way to the locker room: "Stop doubting us. This s—- for real."

Build the statues for Logan Wilson and Germaine Pratt after the last two games

An underrated point of this Bengals season: C.J. Uzomah runs like an absolute tank.

D.J. Reader at the podium was just outstanding in every way. That is the type of guy you build a team/defense around.

A solid half for Bengals WR Tee Higgins in a homecoming game. The Oak Ridge, Tenn., native has caught all five of his targets for 69 yards.

That said, really dumb by Eli Apple to put himself in that position. twitter.com/AlbertBreer/st…

#Bengals inactives vs Titans: WR Stanley Morgan WR Trenton Irwin HB Trayveon Williams OL Fred Johnson CB Vernon Hargreaves DE Wyatt Ray

B.J. Hill goes down in the notes for a huge play if the Bengals can get points out of this.

Chris Evans having a hell of a postseason as a kick returner. 32 yarder there

Terrific throw, terrific catch. Tannehill to Brown's back hip over Chidobe Awuzie. We're tied at 16 in Nashville. #Titans #Bengals

Lou Anarumo getting aggressive on the first third down of the game. Brings both Hilton an Bell on the blitz and they meet at the quarterback. Bengals defense so far against four plays has a turnover and three-and-out. Big energy from the road club.

Bengals with a stop on the two-point conversion from the one on a huge tackle by Clay Johnston (wow) against Henry. Bengals 6, Titans 6.

Get used to seeing Vonn Bell all the way up in the box today. That's not going away.

Trey Hendrickson and Taylor Lewan have a nice chat during the quarter break. Bengals 6, Titans 0.

GO BIG OR GO HOME. #Bengals dressing 5 NTs in absence Larry Ogunjobi. #RuletheJungle pic.twitter.com/8U6M5bZNcX

I've turned into my mom, so I repeat myself - kicking game is important - and wowee (since I've turned into my mom, I used her word) rookie kicker @McPherson_Evan just came through for his team - congratulations Mike Brown, Katie and Troy Blackburn, Paul Brown and @Bengals fans.

Bengals OC Brian Callahan not available for 2nd round interview this week. If, you know, Broncos wanted to. Coaches in conference finals can't be interviewed till Jan. 31-Feb. 5 window. #9sports

Watching Trent Taylor catch that punt was like watching Australia crowd Jimmy Anderson against a spinner at the end of the Ashes Test.

Third and 9 already tough enough and now Isaiah Prince with a false start to make it third and 14. That ends in a sack you just can't take and McPherson now has to try from 54.

The Cincinnati Bengals have enjoyed one of the NFL’s luckiest injury streaks this year and that continues going into Saturday’s playoff game against the Tennessee Titans.

With edge rusher Trey Hendrickson out of concussion protocol and names like defensive tackle Josh Tupou overcoming weeklong injury concerns the list of inactives for Saturday’s game doesn’t offer any surprises:

The big exception to the good luck is, of course, the loss of starting interior pass-rusher Larry Ogunjobi. But with D.J. Reader and others healthy, the team has a surplus of guys they can kick inside to replicate the strategy
