The opening line moved down, and the Bengals are a trendy upset pick here. Cincinnati is 6-3 ATS and 5-4 S/U as an underdog this season. The Titans ranked second in the NFL in run defense this season, and the Bengals cannot abandon the run early to keep a solid Tennessee pass rush honest. Henry's return would be huge for the Titans and Ryan Tannehill. The Titans are 2-3 all time in home playoff home games since relocating from Houston.
It comes down to the Burrow-Chase connection for Cincinnati on offense and whether Trey Hendrickson (concussion) will be available on defense. Burrow showed last week that the moment wasn't too much for him. Tennessee won't be easy, and Cincinnati coach Zac Taylor will have to pick his spots to be aggressive.
This comes down to the emerging star in Burrow. He does it again with a late-TD pass to Tyler Boyd that sends the Bengals to their first AFC championship game since 1988.
