What to expect when the Bengals vs. Chiefs kick-off?
This year, TE Travis Kelce saw a slight drop off from his top-tier production. However, the All-Pro TE will look to catch a touchdown in his sixth consecutive game in today’s Bengals vs. Chiefs game. He’s been the go-to target for Mahomes over the past few weeks after Tyreek Hill’s heel injury hampered the WR for a few games. Kelce also manufactured the final drive to send the Chiefs and Bills to overtime.
While having Kelce at full throttle is dangerous, the Chiefs also saw Hill return to form against the Bills as he cashed in 11 receptions for 150 yards and a touchdown. The Chiefs even got the running game going with 120 combined yards from Mahomes and RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire. When this offense gets red hot, not many can keep up. NFL fans just saw the one team with the best shot, the Buffalo Bills, come up just short.

The Bengals did not fare well this season defending TEs. They kept Kelce in check when these teams faced off in Week 17, but will they be able to slow his red-hot momentum? Holding Kansas City to 3 second-half points allowed Cincinnati to sneak back into their Week 17 win. It would be astounding to see that happen a second time in today’s Bengals vs. Chiefs game.
