Expert AFC Championship Predictions

We have scoured the bookies’ prices to track down the top picks for Sunday’s clash. Our AFC Championship predictions concern the spread, total, anytime touchdown scorer, passing yards and receptions.

Baltimore Ravens -3.5 (-112)

The Ravens made light work of the Houston Texans in the Divisional Round, notching an impressive 24-point victory. Meanwhile, the Chiefs edged past the Buffalo Bills, coming from behind in the fourth quarter to win by three points.

Since the Ravens have won seven of their last eight games without any major problems, we’re confident that Baltimore will cover the spread this weekend.

Under 44.5 Points (-110)

The Chiefs have seen under 44.5 points in 14 of their 19 games this season (74%). As for the Ravens, 11 of their 18 games have produced under 44.5 points (61%). With that in mind, we expect Sunday’s showdown to be a relatively low-scoring game.

Considering that a place in the Super Bowl is on the line, both teams will likely approach the AFC Championship Game with a degree of caution.

Gus Edwards Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+130)

During the regular season, only six players registered more touchdowns than Gus Edwards. The Baltimore running back notched 13 TDs in 17 games, scoring 12 in a 10-game hot streak between September and December.

Having racked up three touchdowns across his last five games, odds of +130 for Edwards to be an anytime touchdown scorer seem too tasty to miss.

NFL Betting Lines

Lamar Jackson Over 208.5 Passing Yards (-115)

Lamar Jackson has achieved over 208.5 passing yards on nine separate occasions this season. In the game before last, the Baltimore quarterback threw 321 yards against the Miami Dolphins.

Averaging 225.3 passing yards per game this season, Jackson looks destined to play a key role in the AFC Championship Game. Backing him to throw at least 209 yards makes a lot of sense.

Travis Kelce Over 4.5 Receptions (-135)

There is no hiding the fact that our AFC Championship predictions favor the Ravens, but our final pick concerns Kansas City’s tight end, Travis Kelce.

Not only has Kelce recorded over 4.5 receptions in five of his last six games, but he has also achieved at least five receptions in 13 of his 17 games this season. That’s why we’re backing him to enjoy further individual success this weekend.

That wraps up our 2024 AFC Championship predictions for this weekend.
