kinda like if the first team to take a pen makes theirs they win.

It used to be first score wins. Saints won the toss, gained 30 yards and kicked the FG. Rule got changed to make it a FG doesn't win the game on the first drive.

I feel for Josh Allen. Worked hard to score on a potentially game winning TD. Never get to see the ball again and his team loses in OT.

As a ravens fan anyone but Cincy! But I agree for Allen to not even get to touch the ball doesn’t feel right

they're used to it (my wife is from Buffalo). They lost 4 straight super bowls in the 90s.

The AFC is going to be insane over the next decade with Allen, Mahomes, Herbert and Burrow duking it out!!
It seemed crazy enough with Brady, Manning, and Roethlisberger in the late 2000s, but this might be to another level.

In a season where taunting penalties were all the rage from the NFL, I'm glad the refs had enough sense to hold off the flag.

Insane games last night. OT rules are so dumb, how can you let such a game end that way.

It doesn’t feel right but defence is a part of the game. The Bills only forced 2 punts all game, and couldn’t even keep the Chiefs out of FG range with only 14 seconds left. That was their shot at winning. They lost because their defence didn’t get it done.

But the Bills defence being crappy doesn't alter the fact that the game was essentially decided by a coin toss. There's debate as to whether it's better to go first or second in a penalty shootout but everyone knows you better win that coin toss in NFL OT.
The Bills also had the #1 defense in the league by a ton of metrics this year. At some point it's like going up against Messi in his prime and there's not a lot you can do.

Despite living in Broncos country, my kids are Chiefs fans and nope, not glory hunters. My eldest who is now barely a teenager, started supporting them when they drafted Mahones out of Texas Tech. I have a soft spot for the Bills so although I wanted a Chiefs win, I wouldn’t have begrudged the Bills had they made a successful Super Bowl run.
Anyway, that game yesterday was one of the most amazing games I’ve watched. It came down to who had the ball last. Incredible to watch.
