The the NFL playoffs are finally here. Wild Card weekend came and passed without too much hubbub, as three of the four games didn’t quite live up to the billing. Nevertheless, there were plenty of surprises as usual, so let’s get to the unexpected (and expected) for Wild Card weekend.

The Bengals announced that starting CB Johnathan Joseph left Sunday’s game against the Browns because of a forearm injury. He’s listed as questionable to return.

Chad Pennington, Shawne Merriman and Frank Gore were among the key players who sustained injuries in Week 3.

Bengals CB Leon Hall was arrested for driving under the influence early Sunday in suburban Cincinnati, television station WLWT-TV reported on its Web site.
