For us to win this playoff game it will take a great overall team effort and some great individual efforts. I am predicting Jeremy Hill to put his regular season behind him and carry us on to the next round.

This got me thinking I can't really remember too many great games by individuals in the playoffs. The best I can remember was Cedric Benson in 2009, 21 carries for 169 yards and a TD. I was at the game and it felt like he was trying to will us to the victory by himself.

I started really being a big fan in the 1987 season so I can't remember the Kenny years. What other post season performances stand out to you? And who do you think will play great and lead us to the next round?
Benson earned everyone of those yards.  He was running like an animal breaking tackles and dragging defenders.  It is one of the best individual performances by a Bengal ever.

Marevin Jones played well against the Chargers (8 rec, 130 yds) but nothing compared to Benson.

TE Dan Ross set a Super Bowl receiving record for TEs (11) in '81.  Don't know if it has been broken or not.
Leon had the pick 6 in the 2nd Texans game.

Honestly though, it's slim pickings. The best performances we've had in the last 6 games are still pretty pedestrian.

Kenny had some good playoff games a few decades ago.
I'm gonna throw the 88 Oline in this mix as a great performance by a unit. Against the Seahawks the pass game was struggling but we racked up over 250 yards rushing.
If eifert stays healthy I feel him and hill will shine Saturday night . Hill has 115 yards and a td and eifert goes for 70 yards and 2 tds
