Predictions, Odds, and Betting Preview for the AFC Championship of the 2023 NFL Playoffs on January 29, 2023
Cincinnati Bengals (-120) vs Kansas City Chiefs (+100) / Sunday, January 29 / 6:30 PM ET
- Bengals Spread: -1.5
- Chiefs Spread: +1.5
- Over/Under: 47.0
On the one hand, the Cincinnati Bengals arrive with their hopes up to seek their second consecutive American Conference championship after winning their Divisional Round matchup against the Bills with a resounding victory.
This Sunday, the AFC North leaders travel again to Kansas City, where they won the championship last season after defeating the Chiefs by a score of 27-24 in overtime. Cincinnati has won three straight games against Andy Reid’s team, and with Joe Burrow in better shape than ever, they are slight favorites against the team that finished with the best record in the conference.
The Bengals’ aerial attack is one of the best in the league, and their defense has not allowed more than 18 points in the last four games. In addition to that, in defending the opposing pass, it was the fourth with the fewest TDs received.
On the other hand, the Kansas City Chiefs are coming off a 20-27 win in their Divisional Round game against the Jaguars, but after getting terrified due to Patrick Mahomes’ injury. The star QB managed to return to the game with discomfort and should see action against the Bengals despite a rather dangerous ankle sprain.
Kansas City’s offense was the best of the campaign thanks to Mahomes, and against Cincinnati’s defense, they will have to prove why they are the best club in the Conference. For the Chiefs’ defense, it is important for the offense to fight tooth and nail, as they are league average and no one has caught more touchdown passes than they have.
Prediction: Over.
