Notable games

Surprisingly the Bengals are 3-1 in the 4 regular season games when both teams went to the playoffs. In 1970 the Bengals opened the season with a win against the Raider, then lost 6 straight, but then won 7 straight to finish 8-6 and win the division.  Both the Raiders and the Bengals lost to the Colts in the playoffs   .  .  In 1975 the Bengals scored a defensive TD and beat the Raiders 14-10 despite only having 184 yards of offense.  Ken Anderson had the 2nd worse start of his career with a 3.9 passer rating (4-19, 75 yds, 0 td, 4 int).  They had a rematch in the playoffs that year.  Anderson posted a 110.3 passer rating but lost 28-31.  .  .  In 1982 the Bengals easily beat the Raiders 31-17.  Both the Bengals and the Raiders lost in the playoffs to the Jets that year.  .  .  Finally in 1990 the Bengals lost to the Raiders 24-7 in the regular season and 20-10 in the playoff game where Bo Jackson suffered the hip injury that would eventually end his football career.
