The NFL playoffs have already delivered countless moments of ecstasy—but the best might be yet to come. The gallant Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs will stand in the way of Joe Burrow and the young Cincinnati Bengals, who hope to reach the Super Bowl for the first time in over three decades.
