Buffalo, New York – The quest for Super Bowl glory continues for many outstanding NFL players, as several of today’s biggest stars are still seeking to hoist the coveted Lombardi Trophy for the first time. Among them, three standout quarterbacks are turning heads: Joe Burrow, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson.
After leading the Cincinnati Bengals to Super Bowl XLVI in 2021, Burrow is the closest of the bunch but ultimately finished short, losing to the Los Angeles Rams. Meanwhile, Allen and Jackson, despite accolades and personal success, have yet to step foot onto the Super Bowl stage. Allen, who had an MVP season last year, was named one of the top players in NFL history who has never won a Super Bowl.
Jackson, a two-time league MVP, is also on this notable list, which only includes players whose careers started in the Super Bowl era. The list raises their status as some of the best to play the game without a title, echoing the pursuit of legends who also fell short, like Philip Rivers and Dan Marino.
With the Buffalo Bills, Allen came close last year, reaching the AFC title game only to stumble again against the dominant Kansas City Chiefs. The game reflected a thrilling competitive spirit, as the Bills rallied to tie late but faltered just moments before time expired.
This longing for the big game is common in the NFL, where countless seasons see superstars like Allen and Jackson striving for their shot at the championship that seems to forever elude them. As they push through the regular season, fans can only watch and hope that one of these talents will finally break through and leave their mark on NFL history.
