Redskins 18 Green Bay completed the NFL’s first-ever Wild Card Weekend sweep for road teams by running like the Lombardi Packers … literally. Eddie Lacy and James Starks are the first Packers duo to each rush for 45+ yards and a TD in a playoff game since Super Bowl I. The Pack will need more of the same next week if they’re going to avoid a repeat of The Redskins blew a golden opportunity but at least they know they have a pair of playoff performers on offense: Kirk Cousins is the first ‘Skins QB to have a TD run and TD pass in a postseason game and Jordan Reed became the first Redskins TE to post a 100 yard game. The Redskins might actually beat a winning team in 2016 if they can get that ground game going and shore up a defense that sacked Aaron Rodgers just once聽and gave up 35 points to a Packers squad that hadn’t score that much since Week 3.

Bengals 16 While Pittsburgh is , they should thank the football gods for drawing a trip to Cincinnati. As is generally the case when these two teams link up, it was chippy and . The Bengals basically handed the Steelers their NFL-record 34th postseason win by coming unglued at the end and that tells me it’s time for Cincy to move on from Marvin Lewis. I know I’ve defended him in the past, but the Bengals had control of this game 鈥� even without Andy Dalton 鈥� and pissed it away in mystifying fashion. It’s not so much that Lewis’ 0-7 career postseason record is the worst ever 鈥� it’s how he got there. Vontaze Burfict was and needed to be reigned in during the game. He wasn’t. And now it’s time to find a coach that can do more with one of the most talented rosters in football. (AP Photo/Frank Victores)

Texans 0 The key to a Kansas City playoff run? Make sure it goes through Houston. The Chiefs’ last postseason win was against the Oilers in 1994 and are 3-0 all-time in playoff games at Houston (just 3-9 in all other road playoff games). So the longest postseason losing streak (8 games) in NFL history ends, and the league’s longest active win streak extends to 11. Meanwhile, Houston has a problem: the Texans are the first home playoff team to get shutout since the 2005 Panthers and . With , that offense will need to be markedly better in 2016 if Houston is going make a return trip to the postseason. (AP Photo/Tony Gutierrez)
