Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been cast in something of a new light while Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs head to another Super Bowl. With Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills falling in the AFC title game over the weekend, Burrow and the Bengals were one of the biggest instant reactions shoved into the spotlight the most.

Joe Burrow made a surprise trip to the land down under this weekend with an appearance at the Australian Open semifinals.

Despite another gutsy effort from Josh Allen and his bunch, who took the two-time defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs down to the wire in the playoffs yet again, they were forced to watch in the closing seconds as Patrick Mahomes and the rest of their biggest rivals ran off the final seconds on a 32-29 victory in the AFC championship game Sunday night .
