About 2023 AFC Championship Game: Cincinnati Bengals vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Two of the most talented and exciting quarterbacks will face off in the nightcap of Sunday’s NFL conference championship game doubleheader as Burrow and the Bengals visit one of the most hostile environments in the league. Mahomes and the Chiefs will be looking to avenge last year’s defeat and return to the Super Bowl. However, that could be a bit difficult as Mahomes will be playing through injury.

The Kansas City QB suffered a high ankle sprain during the team’s 27-20 playoff victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars a week ago, but nothing short of amputation is likely to keep Mahomes from the field on Sunday. His presence and performance will be vital to the Chiefs’ ability to return to the Super Bowl as the Bengals have won three straight in the series, all of which came in the 2022 calendar year.

The Bengals opened as 2.5-point underdogs, but Mahomes’ injury put the line into flux. However, now that he has been practicing, the Bengals seem firmly entrenched at +1.5, which is within the standard three points that home teams tend to get for home-field advantage.
