Chiefs Playoff Picture: Previewing the NFL’s championship round

Our @WesleyRoesch previews the NFL’s championship round with a look at odds and probabilities should the #Chiefs advance to Super Bowl LVII.

For the fifth straight season, the Kansas City Chiefs will host the AFC Championship Game.

They’ll have a chance to avenge last year’s AFC Championship loss as well since they’re set to face the Cincinnati Bengals for the second year in a row. The winner of that game will face the San Francisco 49ers or the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII.

Here are the four possible Super Bowl matchups with probabilities added based on predictions from FiveThirtyEight at time of publish:

(3) CIN at (1) KC	(2) SF at (1) PHI	Probability
Bengals	49ers	17.63%
Bengals	Eagles	25.37%
Chiefs	49ers	23.37%
Chiefs	Eagles	33.63%

Let’s preview the upcoming Championship Sunday on January 29.
