Happy New Year, Jaguars Fans!    Bengals travel to Indianapolis to play the Colts for the 2015 AFC Wild Card Playoff Game. Winner travels on to play the Denver Broncos, for the AFC Divisional Playoff Game.

 

Jim Nantz and Phil Simms are announcing the the live TV game commentary, along with sideline reporter and interviewer Tracy Wolfson, for the NFL On CBS, including WJAX-TV Channel 47 in Jacksonville.

 

NO further injuries, and to represent the AFC South Division, GO COLTS!!!!!    B)    ^_^

AJ Green out, give Dalton another excuse to lose another playoff game.

---

Whether someone has a liberal, or conservative viewpoint, a authoritative figure should not lock a thread for the sole purpose to get the last word in all the while prohibiting someone else from being able to respond.

AJ Green and Jermaine Gresham are both out. Man,, that really hurts the Bengals passing game chances.


BTW,, we all know Dalton's struggles. But, I think it's mostly Marvin Lewis. Pressure is really on today for him.

---

I hope the Colts look awful

---

This is a regular season rematch. I heard on TV that 27-0 shutout "was worse than the score." The Bengals should score this time, but not enough to overcome Andrew Luck

We'll see how it plays out. Colts have not been playing as well late in the season as they were back then. The Bengals have looked better late in the season.


Not having AJ Green or Gresham is a huge hit for Cincy. But, no excuses, next man up.


The last 2 times these teams played:

Colts blew out Cincy this year,,

Cincy blew out Colts last year,,

 Those are difficult losses to overcome.   That much more with the game on the road and the Bengals playoff struggles that relate to what you expressed regarding Marvin Lewis. 

 

 I think the Bengals game plan should be to run early and often with Jeremy Hill,   with the attempt to keep Andrew Luck off the field.   Using play action off the running to Hill. 

 

 jagherd,  good luck to the Bengals today!

I really think/hope Marvin Lewis' job should be on the line with this one. He's 0-5 in the playoffs, losing today would make it 0-6.


Plus, he has a dreadful record on primetime and after bye-weeks.


He should've had far more success than that, especially considering the level of talent on their roster over the past decade.

The last 2 times these teams played:

Colts blew out Cincy this year. . . without A.J. Green


Cincy blew out Colts last year . . . with A.J. Green

 

So following the recent pattern, it should be another Colts blowout because A.J. Green is concussed.

It looks that way, yes.

Thanks,  jagherd!

 

It would be great if both teams break long playoff losing streaks!

Thanks, jagherd!

Yes, it definitely would be great. Maybe today is the day for both franchises?

Thanks,  jagherd!

For your Lions, it was a playoff absence streak.

---

 Here's one way of looking at this.   If not today, when?   

 

 Tomorrow isn't promised.   Urgency is needed today!

---

It's only the 2nd time the Lions made the playoffs this century.  But the other was 3 seasons ago  ( 2011 season ).

 

The 7 game playoff losing streak,  which is one short of the current Chiefs all time NFL record,  started in the 1991 season NFC Championship game.

Yesterday was history.

Tomorrow's a mystery.

Today is a present.

 

That is how the teams look at it. They know nothing is guaranteed in life and you have to win to earn a trip to Denver.

That is crazy to think they actually were in the playoffs three years ago. All I can remember is Jim Schwartz was the coach.

Luck has 5 seconds to thow the ball. That's weird, Blake has only 1/2 second.

---

Without AJ Green, I'd be suprised if this game is even close
