The Titans defeated the NFL's top-ranked scoring defense (New England) and offense (Baltimore) in consecutive weeks. The other playoff teams (1988 49ers, 2004 Patriots) to do that eventually won the Super Bowl. The Chiefs have won 1 game. The Titans have been in playoff mode for over a month. The Titans are a moving train. The train's # is 22 and the tracks go straight through Arrowhead Stadium. The Titans will win this game straight up. Take the Titans ML +290

They are also facing their 4th straight week on the road and like it or not that is a seriously tough ask....they gave up over 500 yards to Baltimore which tells you it wasn't a dominant performance just dominant on the key plays, i just don't see them getting all the breaks at Arrowhead and I would be shocked if the Chiefs panic like the Ravens panicked.

It’s about momentum. When a team gets hot, they are hard to stop. You can see that first hand with Tennessee. The Titans built their playoff momentum before even reaching the actual postseason with a 7-3 stretch after Ryan Tannehill took over in Week 7 following a 2-4 start. Each and every one of those games was almost at the level of a playoff contest because of their must-win nature, and the Titans got the job done despite a tough schedule, grabbing the No. 6 seed in the AFC with a 9-7 record. Once they got to the playoffs, the Titans kept rolling and disposed of the defending Super Bowl champion New England Patriots, then took out this year’s Super Bowl favorite and No. 1 seed, the Baltimore Ravens, in dominant fashion. In those two games, the Titans’ defense allowed a total of 25 points, and bear in mind one of those matchups was against the No. 1 scoring offense. Tennessee is also riding the hottest player right now in running back Derrick Henry, who has been nothing short of unstoppable. The Titans are rolling into the AFC Championship Game against the Kansas City Chiefs with arguably more momentum than any team remaining in the playoffs and I expect to see them in the Super Bowl and win it all.

Unless the cold affects KC, they are unstoppable on offense.

3 WRs with elite speed + great TE + QB who can deliver however necessary.

The Kansas City Chiefs are a finesse and speed team. The Tennessee Titans are a power team. I'm old school and I'll take power over finesse and speed in this matchup. Best of luck to everybody.

Derrick Henry has been breaking playoff records set by Terrell Davis. Why aren't more people noticing this???

Turnovers and Derrick Henry will beat the Chiefs.

NFL will get Mahommes in the Super Bowl. Bank on it. Titans in the big game would be a ratings nightmare. Mahommes is the face of the NFL and people will turn on the tv to watch. Remember the NFL is labeled Sports entertainment by its own Commissioner.

You do not think KC is hot, too?

Won and covered 6 in a row when Mahomes was healthy again. KC D got healthy, too, though a key player Jones is ???
Tennessee beat an overrated NE team (30th SOS), once great (Willie), but now offensively challenged with mediocre and dinged OL and medicocre and dinged WRs & TEs. The NE D was very overrated since it went against that 30th SOS, when they played teams with good O, they struggled.
Tennessee was outgained 530-300 and out FD's 29-15 by Baltimore, Baltimore simply fuoked up the game, 3 turnovers to 0, 4th and 1's not made, opportunites blown. Balty was out coached and out executed.
IF it was going to be a nice day tomorrow I would load up on KC, but it will be cold and that hinders KC's pass game and helps a running team like Tennessee, so I will go with a regular play on KC, not "BIG".
GL!

When KC goes up 14-0 after its first two possessions all that momentum talk for the Titans will evaporate.

this is the right narrative IMO, Baltimore blew that game a lot more than the Titans won it...the Ravens had 8 drives end between the 4 and 35 yard line plus another 4th and 1 fail at midfield....if that game was played another 3 times Baltimore would likely win easily....anyway that's all speculative but the point is i don't think the Titans are a dominant team and now they do face a dominant offense on the road and for the 4th straight week...and their secondary is the weakness of their D, this the wrong team to take on with a weakness like that...KC will win easily

Baltimore didn't know what to do when someone took the physicality to them. Titans came out and put an offensive drive up and INT and then uncle mo was against Balty. They chased points early instead of taking some FG's when they could have, then Titans just kept it away from them enough to keep Baltimore rattled. Titans do deserve some credit for what they didn't, it wasn't a complete Baltimore give up on their part

running the ball straight at someone and beating them physically and mentally isn't cool anymore.

Winning and advancing in the playoffs is always cool...
