Bengals vs
Texans: Complete Preview for 2013 AFC Wild Card Game
The Houston Texans boasted the AFC’s best record for most of the
season, but they’ll be forced to face the Cincinnati Bengals on
Wild-Card Weekend after two straight losses.
While the Texans will enter the contest cold, Cincinnati is scorching
after winning seven out of its last eight games. Houston is capable of
recapturing its status as a top Super Bowl contender with just one win.
But if the Bengals are too hot to handle, its campaign will just as
easily go up in smoke.
Here’s everything you need to know about this win-or-go-home showdown.
Where: Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas
When: Saturday, Jan. 5 at 4:30 p.m. ET
Watch: NBC
What’s At Stake?
Houston has won one playoff game in franchise history. Cincinnati
hasn’t won a playoff game since 1990.
Both teams are talented and have a bright future, but until the Texans
and Bengals become used to winning in January, it’ll be that much more
difficult to win in January. The postseason is a different animal and
neither has yet to conquer it.
