We say it “feels easier” because Baltimore has the home-field advantage, but it's never easy to take down Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City in the playoffs. The visitors will be gunning for their fourth trip to the Big Game in the last five years – but they have to run up against a Baltimore defense that ranks No. 1 in the league.
Not only that, but likely league MVP Lamar Jackson appears to be at the top of his game. In his last three appearances, he has accounted for 11 touchdowns and 905 yards with no interceptions. So, it makes sense that BetMGM lists Baltimore as a 3.5-point favorite over Kansas City.
