Both quarterbacks had their doubters leading up to the draft. Now, the AFC divisional round's winner will be within a game of a Super Bowl.

Buffalo edged Baltimore, 27-25, after the Ravens’ Mark Andrews dropped what would have been a tying two-point conversion pass in the final minutes.

The MVP award won't be decided on Sunday, but the ramifications of the game figure to be immense for the two QBs and their franchises.

The fourth and final matchup of the Divisional Round is perhaps the most highly-anticipated of them all. MVP front-runners Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson are put to the test under the bright lights and go head-to-head for a spot in the AFC Championship.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is keeping things classy with Josh Allen after the Buffalo Bills star eliminated him from the AFC playoffs. The Ravens dropped a 27-25 heartbreaker to Allen and the Bills in the AFC Divisional but Jackson is still rooting for Buffalo -- Allen in particularly -- during the final stretch of the postseason.
