I'm predicting a close game, mostly because when I predict a blowout, it becomes a nail biter. It's going to depend on how tight the game is called, IMO. Are they going to allow the Bengals receivers to push off? Are they going to call DPI when Kelce is mugged repeatedly?
I'm fairly confident the Chiefs are going to see the 3-8 defense again. How will they handle it this time? Also, will Joe be able to escape a couple of sacks and make big plays with his feet like the last time?
So many plays turned both of those games around. Lightning can't strike three times! Can it?

If CJ plays like he has all year, Burrow is straight fucked. If Spags has learned and will not leave rookie corners (maybe with the exception of McDuffie) on islands with Higgins and Chase, the Bengals will have a hard time scoring.
This game worries me a little more than most here but I will go with Chiefs 38-31
If you caught the CJ interview after the Rams game he credited his increased drive this season to his inability to get Burrow to the ground last season. He made it a point of emphasis going into this season.
Hoping to see CJ take this game over late. [Reply]
Pacheco tears the soul out of the Bengals with a 100+ yard rush day and a td. Chiefs get back to being the Chiefs in the redzone. Mahomes 300 yards 3 tds.
Spags squad frustrates in first half, locks in from the 3rd quarter on. [Reply]
Chiefs win by 8-14 points, but league sources say the Bengals beat themselves or the refs gave 'em the game. Chiefs can't possibly earn the win. [Reply]

To be fair, the Chiefs totally beat themselves in the Colts game.
OR the refs gave them that game because of the stupid Chris Jones penalty.
