With Championship Weekend upon us there perhaps hasn’t been a hotter topic than the Bengals vs Chiefs odds. With money coming in backing the Cincinnati Bengals early in the week and then a full reverse mid-week, it’s certainly been the most interesting market to watch.
Who is favored to win the AFC Championship?
For most of the early part of the week, money favored the Bengals, but they have now slipped to being underdogs. While betting limits have remained relatively low due to the uncertainly surrounding this game, it’s still been a robust market. Betting has become a little more one sided since Wednesday. Where do Bengals vs Chiefs odds stand right now? The current moneyline is Kansas City -124 with Cincinnati a +106 underdog.
What is the Spread in Bengals vs Chiefs?
Currently the Chiefs are 1.5 point favorites at FanDuel Sportsbook. This line moved heavily following Patrick Mahomes‘ health concerns. The Bengals were favored by 2.5 points on Monday. With him attending practice on Wednesday, money has steadily come in on the Chiefs. The point spread in these two teams’ first matchup closed at Chiefs -2.5, in Cincinnati.

What is the Total?
The point total in Bengals vs Chiefs is 48 right now. This has moved up from early numbers in the week with the reports of Patrick Mahomes being much healthier than originally though. They scored a total of 51 points in their earlier matchup this season. This is the exact total from last year’s playoff matchup as well.
AFC Championship Game Predictions.
It’s nearly impossible to pick against either of these quarterbacks, but one will indeed be heading home after Sunday. We think the offensive line injuries may finally catch up with the Bengals, limiting Joe Burrow’s effectiveness against the KC defense. Conversely, the Bengals pass rush should have a tough time against a Chiefs O-line with a very high pass rush win rate this season.
Chiefs 28 – Bengals 20
