AFC Championship: New England Patriots @ Kansas City Chiefs

I like the Chiefs to win. Wouldn’t be shocked or anything if the result went the other way either.

What I feel strongest about is the under. I’d take the under if I were a betting man.

This year is KC's year. Sunday will be a formality. The Chiefs should get a head start and focus on making their plans for Atlanta.

It's going to be brutally cold, current forecast is somewhere between 10 and -5 degrees.

All the more reason to watch the game from the comfort of your own cozy home like the NFL product is meant to be consumed.

If the Chiefs' defense comes out on fire like they did this past week then I see them winning otherwise....Well let's not think about it.

I love the way the Chiefs are playing like they have nothing to lose and Mahomes showed a lot of maturity this past weekend. He's going to have to show that against the Pats as well IMO.

I think it'll be a close one but I don't foresee a shootout like the last time.

I think the cold weather favors New England, big time.

It's not like KC played in balmy weather this past week. They both play similarly with the big exception being that New England can run the ball well regularly.

The weather's not going to be a factor IMO.

That's it right there - can they get a consistent pass rush on Brady up the middle (particularly in the fourth quarter).

I'm sorry...as much as I want to pencil in KC, and as much as I love Andy Reid, how anyone in their right mind can pick against BB and Brady given KC's history is beyond me.

Re: AFC Championship: New England Patriots @ Kansas City Chiefs

I thought the whole “Cold Weather” thing was nothing but a myth now?

At least that’s what I hear about GB every time we play in it.

Before the playoffs, I picked the Saints and Patriots so I'm sticking with it. I won't, however, be surprised or disappointed if I'm wrong.

I think Williams rushing game this past Sunday is gonna make NE go "hmmm" a bit. Just hoping Mahommes doesn't suddenly realize what he's doing is pretty crazy. His composure has been amazing for someone his age. There were probably 3-4 additional catches Chiefs' receivers should have had last week.

However having been a Chiefs fans all these years I won't be surprised if NE moves on in light of their experience.... that's such an intangible. But if KC comes out loose .... look out.

I don't think Lin Elliot missing a bunch of field goals in the 90s or Alex Smith blowing huge leads has much bearing on this game, but yeah, I just refuse to believe Brady won't get it done against a defense this bad.

Patriots by 2 TDs at least.
