5 Most Popular Bets and Prop Bets for the AFC Divisional Round: Cincinnati Bengals vs Tennessee Titans

Titans -3.5 (-110) (Bet $110 to win $100)
| Bet | Bets% | Handle% |
|---|---|---|
| Titans -3.5 | 67% | 74% |
| Bengals +3.5 | 33% | 26% |
The public and handle are both heavy on the Titans, at home. The Titans are the number one seed of the AFC and people are backing them knowing that Derrick Henry will be the team's starting running back. The Titans are now healthy, but that shouldn't stop this game from being a tight one throughout. Via MGM, 67 percent of bets are on the Titans -3.5 while 74 percent of the handle is on Titans -3.5.
Over 47.5 (-110) (Bet $110 to win $100)
| Bet | Bets% | Handle% |
|---|---|---|
| Over 47.5 | 73% | 56% |
| Under 47.5 | 27% | 44% |
Many bets are coming in on the over 47.5 but the handle is slightly smaller. 73 percent of bets are on the over but only 56 percent of the handle is on the over. The sportsbooks, including MGM will want the under to hit, but the damage won't be as bad knowing the handle is just at 56 percent. Both teams have terrible rushing defenses and have had their moments defensively. With so many weapons on each team's offense, I could see why most are backing the over in this game. The weather also won't be so bad. It'll be cold but that's about it.
Top Prop Bets for Bengals vs Titans
- Derrick Henry to score 1st Touchdown (+450) (Bet $100 to win $450)
- Ja'Marr Chase to score Anytime Touchdown (+110) (Bet $100 to win $110)
- Ja'Marr Chase Over 76.5 Rushing Yards (-115) (Bet $115 to win $100)
Most of the time, at MGM, the most bet prop bet is on a running back on the team with the favorite. In this game, that stands true with the most prop bet action on Derrick Henry to score the first touchdown of the game.
The odds aren't great for such a long shot, but still, at +450 there's reason to bet it. Most first touchdown bets are around the +600 or +800 range. But Henry is expected to score in tonight's game and has an anytime touchdown number sitting at around -200. So, therefore, his first touchdown is just at +450. Still, it's worth the gamble.
On the other hand, if you're not backing Derrick Henry and the Titans, you're looking to back Ja'Marr Chase and the Bengals. The other two most bet props include Ja'Marr Chase.
Chase has been getting 10 or more targets in each of his last three games with Burrow under center. If that continues into this game, many bettors will be thrilled with the results. If Chase is targeted 10 times, there's a good chance he'll score a touchdown and get over his receiving yards.
