Miami Dolphins vs. Kansas City Chiefs Prediction
Kansas City comes into this contest as the favorites (4.5).
The Chiefs opened as a three-point favorite, but the line has continued to move in their favor.
Kansas City has a huge advantage tonight with the weather, which is expected to be 0 degrees, with wind chills that make it feel like -30.
That is a tough spot for the Dolphins, who are used to the Florida sunshine.
Another disadvantage for the Dolphins is health.
Kansas City is the much healthier team coming into this game.
The only way the Dolphins will pull off the upset is if they get a big-time performance from their offense.
The Dolphins have the second-best scoring offense in the NFL.
Tua Tagovailoa will need to turn in one of the better games in his young career this afternoon.
Tyreek Hill will make his return to Kansas City tonight. Hill enjoyed loads of success as a Chiefs player, including a Super Bowl ring.
Kansas City has not looked as strong as they have in years past but they remain a threat to win the Super Bowl.
Mahomes has been nearly unbeatable at home in the playoffs.
He will need his skill position players around him to step up in a big way.
One of the guys that he will rely on will be his favorite target, Travis Kelce.
Kelce will be the man that we target to score the first touchdown tonight.
Miami Dolphins vs. Kansas City Chiefs Prop Pick
There is way too much value on Kelce not to take a stab at this number.
Kelce remains the favorite target of Mahomes, and I see him having a massive game tonight.
Miami is banged up defensively, and Kelce matches up well with this defense.
Kelce leads the teams in targets (121) and yards (984).
