La look: The Sunday games in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs didn't disappoint. The Detroit Lions are playing in a conference championship game for the first time in 32 years after beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game that went down to the final possession. 


San Francisco awaits Detroit in the NFC Championship Game. In the AFC, Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen had another memorable playoff duel. The Kansas City Chiefs emerged victorious over the Buffalo Bills and will play the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game.

 What did we learn from the Sunday divisional round games? Let's take a look: The Bills had the Chiefs right where they wanted them -- at home in the playoffs in front of their passionate fanbase.

 Instead of taking advantage of that, Buffalo bowed out in the divisional round at home for the second consecutive year. This wasn't any fault of Josh Allen, who completed 26 of 39 passes for 186 yards and a touchdown (86.1 rating) while also rushing for 72 yards and two touchdowns.


 Allen is the first player to ever have four passing touchdowns and three rushing touchdowns through two playoff games; he was the only reason why the Bills were in that game. 

 The Bills made plenty of mistakes in the game and battled through injuries across the board on defense. At the end of the day, special teams was the culprit.
