Bengals vs Chiefs: Here’s who experts think will win

The Bengals and Chiefs face off on Sunday night in the AFC Championship game. Here’s who the experts are anticipating will win.

The Chiefs and Bengals meet for a second consecutive year in the AFC Championship. Last year, the Bengals took the win and went onto the Super Bowl. Will it be a different outcome this year?
