About Last Night
Bengals and 49ers get it done
If the lineup for the NFL’s Championship games next weekend seems familiar, it’s because 3 of the 4 teams were there last year too! The Bengals booked a repeat showdown with the Chiefs in the AFC with a convincing 27-10 win over the Bills in snowy Buffalo. The 49ers returned to the NFC title game with a 19-12 win over the Cowboys, meaning only Super Bowl champions the Los Angeles Rams have not returned, replaced by the Philadelphia Eagles.
Oddsmakers are finding it hard to separate the teams, with FanDuel Sportsbook making the Chiefs favorites at +250, ahead of the Bengals and Eagles, both at +260, and the 49ers at +310. It was a super Sunday for Pickswise as our handicappers went 3-1 on NFL picks, 3-1 on Best Bets and Prop Holliday was 4-2 with his prop picks.
