The Buffalo Bills' season ended on Sunday night with their heartbreaking 42-36 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in overtime. The playoff loss comes one round earlier in the AFC Divisional Round, after losing to the Chiefs in last year's AFC Championship game.

The game is being hyped up as arguably the greatest NFL playoff game in league history. 25 points were scored in the final 1:54 of regulation and it unfortunately, came at the expense of Bills fans' anxiety and heartache.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a legendary performance in the loss, completed  27 of 37 passes for 329 yards and 4 touchdowns, with another 68 yards rushing.

Allen had a 149.0 passer rating with 9 touchdowns and zero turnovers in the two playoff games this postseason.

The growth of Allen the last four years has been remarkable. Allen had turned himself into one of the top two or three quarterbacks in the entire NFL and it feels like his postseason drives and stats are an arrival that Allen is with Patrick Mahomes for the best quarterback in the NFL.

Allen's ascension into superstardom was noticed by the sports card industry, apparently, because according to the PWCC, a Josh Allen 2018 Panini Prizm Gold Vinyl rookie card sold for $264,000 after the Divisional Round game on Sunday night.

That's a good indicator that Allen has been elevated to one of the league's best players, when a rookie card can sell for six figures like that.

Bills fans, get used to it, because Josh Allen is going to have more cards sell for a lot of money and he will go down as one of the best quarterbacks of all-time.
