2024 AFC Championship Game: Bills vs. Chiefs predictions, picks, best bets, player props
Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes could foresee the future. Back on Nov. 17, after the Bills beat the Chiefs 30-21 in a wild Week 11 matchup in Buffalo, N.Y., the two quarterbacks met at midfield, shared a bro hug and congratulated each other.
"We'll see you guys soon," Allen told his counterpart.
Replied Mahomes, "We'll do it again, baby."
What was said wasn't as important as what was not said: "We'll see you in the playoffs."
They were right. On Sunday, Buffalo and Kansas City will square off in a sequel that Allen and Mahomes both saw coming. The two-time defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs are 1.5-point favorites in the AFC Championship Game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., over the Bills. The winner will advance to Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.
The initial meeting provides an interesting backdrop when attacking the plethora of betting options for Sunday's sequel. Are the Bills the value side after beating the Chiefs by 9 points in Week 11? Will Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce, who had just 8 receiving yards in the first matchup, go over his receiving yardage total of 68.5? Will Allen go over his passing touchdown prop of 1.5? He had only one passing touchdown in Week 11.
