Allen didn't get the support though as the defense had a bad day. I don't know how you can be overly confident they beat the Bengals as they deserve a lot of credit for beating the 1st, 2nd and 5th seeds to get to the Super Bowl. Nobody can say they had an easy path as they are fully deserving as the AFC representative in the Super Bowl. The Raiders were a play away from going into OT with the Bengals and possibly beating them but the Bengals were the better team that day as they executed on the last play of the game to lock up the win. In the NFL playoffs it usually comes down to a small handful of plays which one team executes for the win and the other fails. Just ask Cowboys or Packers fans. The Bills simply didn't execute in key times and the Chiefs did. Buffalo didn't throw away the Super Bowl because it was never theirs for the taking and I'm getting a bit of a whiff of arrogance here from Bills fans.
