T.M. Selection: Bengals/Chiefs OVER.

I am on the over in the Cincinnati Bengals vs Kansas City Chiefs game on Sunday. The Bengals have gone on a great run to make it to this AFC Championship game but they haven't had to use a lot of offense to get here. They have been in control of their previous 2 games for the most part and haven't had to put up a lot of points as the offenses they faced struggled in those games. I don't think that is going to happen here though. The Chiefs just had a crazy high scoring game that became very explosive near the end and i think this game will follow suit with that game more than the other games the Bengals have played in. The other 2 teams didn't really challenge the Bengals much but the Chiefs will and I think the Bengals are going to have to put up a ton of points to keep up here. The Bengals haven't had to play from behind yet but there is a good chance they will be playing this game from behind and if that's the case then they will have to throw the ball more and put up a lot of points quickly. The Chiefs have put up 40+ points in both of their playoff games and they have looked incredible on offense in both games. They just won a shootout with the Bills and even when they were down by 3 with 13 seconds left they found a way to sling the ball down the field and tie the game with a FG in those 13 seconds. The Bills have 1 of the best defenses in the league and even they had trouble stopping the Chiefs in that game. I don't think the Bengals are going to have a better chance here of stopping them so they will need to defend this game with their offense to keep it close. They already played each other right before the playoffs started and there was 60+ points in that game, both teams putting up 30+ points. I think this is going to be a high scoring game with a lot of offenses and I think the defenses will not be able to do much to stop these 2 powerful offenses. I like the over in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 37-34 Chiefs.
