Houston, TX (My Sportsbook) - For the second time in less than a calendar year, the Houston Texans have ended the Cincinnati Bengals' season. In a rematch of an AFC Wild Card game from last season, Arian Foster rushed for 140 yards and a touchdown on 32 carries, as the Houston Texans defeated the Cincinnati Bengals, 19-13, to earn their second straight AFC Wild Card game victory at Reliant Stadium. Foster added eight catches for 34 yards and became the first player in NFL history to rush for 100-or-more yards in his first three career playoff games. Quarterback Matt Schaub, who missed last season's 31-10 victory over the Bengals due to a foot injury, finished 29-of-38 for 262 yards with one interception in his first career playoff start. Owen Daniels added nine catches for 91 yards for the Texans, who improved to 2-1 all-time in the postseason and will visit the second-seeded New England Patriots on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. (et). The Cincinnati offense was held in check all game, with quarterback Andy Dalton managing just 127 yards with an interception on 14-of-30 efficiency. BenJarvus Green-Ellis carried the ball 11 times for 63 yards for Cincinnati, which hasn't won a playoff game since Jan. 6, 1991.
Final Score: Green Bay 24, Minnesota 10 Green Bay, WI (My Sportsbook) - Aaron Rodgers threw for a touchdown and the Green Bay Packers took advantage of a short-handed Vikings team to oust Minnesota from the playoffs, 24-10, in an NFC Wild Card game at Lambeau Field. John Kuhn had a rushing and receiving score for the Packers, who will play at San Francisco next Saturday at 8 p.m. ET in the divisional round. Rodgers completed 23-of-33 passes for 274 yards and the Packers tied a postseason NFL record by having 10 players make a reception. The Vikings played without starting quarterback Christian Ponder, who was inactive due to a right elbow injury. Ponder was hurt last Sunday in a regular season-ending 37-34 win over the Packers when he was hit by safety Morgan Burnett on a blitz. Joe Webb, who had taken just three snaps all season, started in Ponder's place and was erratic through the air. A sixth-round draft pick in 2010, Webb completed 11- of-30 passes for 180 yards with a TD and an interception. He also had seven carries for 68 yards. Adrian Peterson, who rushed this season for 2,097 yards, the second-most in a season in NFL history, had 99 yards on 22 carries. Peterson ran for 199 yards and a TD in the regular season finale.
