Had things gone to plan last weekend, this would have been set up as a great game between two sides who won their season opener.
Instead, betting sites have had to re-evaluate this week, to try and determine where the Cincinnati Bengals are at, after their disappointing home loss to the New England Patriots.
It was better for the Kansas City Chiefs, a home win over the Baltimore Ravens has started their quest for a three-peat, we’ve got Bengals @ Chiefs tips right here for Sunday night.

Chiefs -5.5
Kicking the bet off, I really like the Chiefs to win here, and not only do that, but win pretty comfortably.
They were good against the Ravens, but look like a team that will get better with games, so I expect even more here.
That comes against a team who really struggled last week, and I’m not sure the Bengals are good enough to leap quickly out of their slump, away at the toughest venue in the league.
I’ve got the Chiefs winning this by 8-10 points, which works for this line.
Rashee Rice Anytime TD
If you’re a Rashee Rice fantasy owner like me, you should have had high expectations this summer, and in week 1 he delivered. He didn’t score a touchdown, but did everything bar that.
It’s clear Patrick Mahomes trusts him, and I think he’ll see a lot of the football once again.
I’m expecting similar numbers to last week, which would mean over 100 yards, but this time around, with a touchdown too, I’ll have Rice to have a touchdown anytime here.
Total Points Under 48.5
Finally, I do think the points total can be kept relatively low. I’m not sure the Bengals can put up too much to trouble the scorer, with just 10 against the Patriots last weekend.
But if the Chiefs do get ahead as I expect them to, they’re a team that won’t keep going hard, they will ease off, give others an opportunity to play a little more, and try some new things.
Put all of that together, I like a comfortable Chiefs win, but think they’ll slow down towards the end when ahead, which will keep the score lower than this line.
