Following their thrilling win over the Buffalo Bills in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs, the Kansas City Chiefs are now just one home win away from playing in their third consecutive Super Bowl.
While Kansas City competing for another title isn't all that surprising, its opponent, the Cincinnati Bengals, also getting that chance very much is.
The betting market is bullish on the Chiefs' chances as well, evidenced by the 7.5-point AFC Championship Game spread.
In addition, 62% of bettors are laying the touchdown with Andy Reid's team, but that doesn't necessarily mean that backing Kansas City is the smart way to bet Bengals vs. Chiefs.
In fact, it might be the AFC Championship Game's total, not the spread, that’s offering the most value heading into the game.
With this in mind, let's leverage The Action Network's NFL PRO Projections to pinpoint how savvy bettors can find the biggest possible edge for Bengals vs. Chiefs.
