"Hey, I've got some wise words for that Cincinnati mayor," Travis Kelce said after the Chiefs' win. "Know your role and shut your mouth, you jabroni!"

Even with a high-ankle sprain, Patrick Mahomes produced one of the signature performances of his career to lead the Chiefs to the Super Bowl.

When the Cincinnati Bengals were calling the Kansas City Chiefs' stadium "Burrowhead Stadium," in reference to Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, it seemed like a bad idea. When the Cincinnati mayor had a dumb stunt to ask if Burrow was Patrick Mahomes' father, it was beyond repair. The Chiefs didn't say anything in response to the Bengals' trash talk. It's almost always cringeworthy when politicians mix up in sports, but Cincinnati Mayor Aftab Pureval took it to a whole other level. "I got some wise words for that Cincinnati mayor: Know your role and shut your mouth, you jabroni!"

The NFL divisional round reminded everyone just how powerful the Philadelphia Eagles are with their franchise quarterback under center.

After their destruction of the Giants on Saturday, Hurts said his shoulder simply felt “good enough” to play in the divisional round. Hurts’ version of “good enough” is enough for the Eagles to get back to their second Super Bowl in five seasons.

The Bills look to make another run next year despite QB Josh Allen's cap hit nearly doubling.

This was the season that everything lined up for the Bills to finally win a Super Bowl. The problem the Bills faced this season is that they had nowhere else to go but a Super Bowl. Anything less than at least a trip to the Super Bowl would be looked at as a failed season. Even with a good core and a star quarterback, a Super Bowl window can close quickly. The ending to the Bills' season was abrupt and entirely unsatisfying.
