Free NFL Picks: Buffalo Bills at Kansas City Chiefs 1/23/22

AFC DIVISIONAL PLAYOFF: 5:30 SUNDAY 1/23/22

This is the final game of the weekend and a lot of people think this one might be the best of the four games. The Bills have won 5 straight and are coming off a 47-17 beatdown over New England. They had been a disappointment until righting the ship and finishing on a roll. Meanwhile, Kansas City stumbled to a surprising 3-4 start but rebounded and have won 9 of their last 10. So, we have 2 red-hot teams going at it in Arrowhead to see who will advance to the AFC Championship game. Let’s see what there is to bet.

  • Buffalo: Josh Allen 65% Completion Rate, 4,718 yards, 41 Touchdowns,15 Interceptions

TOTAL TEAM POINTS:

Buffalo: 27 Total Team Points The Bills are averaging 28 points per game and torched the Patriots for 47 last week. Josh Allen can beat you with his arm and his feet and his scrambling ability must be contained. That will be a key for the Chiefs’ defense. Allen has good receivers and is playing with a ton of confidence. He also has the experience of playing in Arrowhead with everything on the line. The Chiefs have played better on defense in the 2nd half of the season and the pressure is on them. I’m taking Buffalo UNDER 27 Total Team Points

Kansas City: 28.5 Total Team Points The Chiefs offensive prowess is scary anytime they hit the field. If it a waste of time to list all of their statistics because everyone knows them. Buffalo has a great defense and they will bring the heat to Mahomes. But, can they keep him under control and limit the big play. I like Kansas City UNDER 28 points.

OVER/UNDER 54.5 Total Combined Team Points I took the UNDER on both team’s totals so I’m taking the UNDER on combined team points.

POINT SPREAD: Kansas City is a 1.5-point favorite This game has classic written all over it. Probably the two best teams in the AFC going at it in this one. The spread is easy to bet. Take whichever team you like because more than likely they are going to cover. We can’t go against Mahomes.
