Tennessee Titans vs Kansas City Chiefs - Previewing the 2020 AFC Championship Game

Prediction

Patrick Mahomes

I really believe that this is not the matchup the Chiefs were hoping for. Sure, the Titans entered the playoffs as a six seed, but after eliminating Baltimore, they are now the hottest team in the league since Tannehill was inserted into the starting lineup. Kansas City feasts on obvious passing downs, where Spagnuolo can get creative with his pressure packages and those pass rushers can really get off the ball, but Tennessee doesn’t want to give them any of those. By controlling the clock, they can keep that high-flying offense on the bench and dictate game-script potentially.

With that being said, I just think Patrick Mahomes is the best player in the game today and he has too many weapons around him. Dean Pees has done a masterful job being multiple with his defensive scheme and forcing quarterbacks to hold onto the ball, but the way Mahomes can manipulate coverages by moving around and threw with different arm-angles to take advantages` he just created will be the difference.

Tennessee 27-34 Kansas City
