Kanas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has never been an underdog in his illustrious 12-game postseason NFL career, but that could change by the time the AFC Championship Game kicks off on Sunday.
The Chiefs held off the Jacksonville Jaguars 27-20 on Sunday, but failed to cover the 9.5-point spread. After the Cincinnati Bengals dominated the Buffalo Bills 27-10 on Sunday afternoon, the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook opened the AFC title game with a line of Chiefs -3 vs. the Bengals. It quickly moved down to pick-em at several books, with the line even moving to the Bengals as a slight favorite at Westgate. The consensus spread on Sunday night at sportsbooks was a pick-em; DraftKings had the line at Chiefs -1.
Mahomes is 9-3 straight-up in his postseason career, but only 7-5 ATS.
