NFL playoffs: Defending AFC champion Bengals stuff Ravens in dramatic AFC wild-card victory
The Cincinnati Bengals and Baltimore Ravens split their meetings this regular season, so the AFC wild-card game between the two on Sunday night served as the decider of this grudge match.
And in true AFC North fashion, a defensive play was the difference.
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley, starting in place of an injured Lamar Jackson, attempted to score on a 1-yard dive on third-and-goal early in the fourth quarter.

The score gave the Bengals a 24-17 lead, a margin they held for the victory.
