The German football player Jakob Johnson failed with the New England Patriots in the play-offs of the US professional league NFL.
The six-time Super Bowl champion had no chance at 17:47 against the Buffalo Bills.
"We just couldn't keep up," said coach Bill Belichick, who suffered the heaviest loss since taking office in 2000.
The Bills set a playoff record in their success by hitting seven touchdowns in their first seven attacks on offense.
The team from the US state of New York was up 27-0 just before the break before the Patriots scored a field goal.
The outstanding man at Buffalo was Josh Allen, who provided a playoff record for the Bills with five touchdown passes.
The Bills will face the Tennessee Titans in the second round of the playoffs, who had the best post-round record in the AFC, giving them a bye to the second round.
For Johnson, 27-year-old fullback from Stuttgart, the season is over.
First playoff win for Cincinnati in 21 years
The Cincinnati Bengals, meanwhile, celebrated their first playoff win in 21 years, beating the Las Vegas Raiders 26-19.
Quarterback Joe Burrow threw two touchdown passes, rookie kicker Evan McPherson was successful in all four field goal attempts.
The Bengals last won a playoff game against the defunct Houston Oilers in January 1991 and then lost all eight attempts.
