Mahomes led four straight scoring drives in the cauldron of the final quarter and OT to demonstrate, indeed, he's the quarterback ruler.
Josh Allen's sparkles, however, were outfitted to the sideline in additional time. Allen merited better compared to watch from the sideline as his group went down in extra time - - as Mahomes once suffered on this very field against Tom Brady. Be that as it may, those are the breaks. Bison's drained D couldn't get a stop in OT. The misfortune doesn't decrease how sublime Allen played.
