What Are the Odds The Chiefs Earn No. 1 Seed in AFC?

The Kansas City Chiefs squandered the No. 1 seed in the AFC in Week 17 by losing to the Cincinnati Bengals.

That gave the Tennessee Titans a path to a first-round bye with wins over the Miami Dolphins and Houston Texans in the final two weeks of the season. Tennessee already defeated Miami, and it is a massive favorite at WynnBET Sportsbook to beat the Texans in Week 18.

However, Houston did win the first matchup between the two teams, and Kansas City is hoping for a similar outcome in Week 18 as it needs a Texans win to reclaim the top spot in the AFC.

Here’s how Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes and company can lock up a first round bye, with a little help, in Week 18.

Here’s How Chiefs Can Earn the No. 1 Seed in AFC

Kansas City’s path to the No. 1 seed in the AFC starts with winning against the Denver Broncos on Saturday.

The Chiefs are 10-point favorites at WynnBET Sportsbook and -500 on the moneyline to come away with a victory in Denver in Week 18.

The second step is the Texans (+400 on the moneyline), upsetting Tennessee in Houston.

A parlay at WynnBET with these two teams winning would cash at +500 odds. So, the implied probability that Kansas City ends up with the No. 1 seed is 16.67 percent. On the other hand, Tennessee has a 84 percent chance of ending up with the one seed based on implied probability.

If Kansas City fails to move back into the No. 1 spot in Week 18, it will face either the Baltimore Ravens, Las Vegas Raiders, Indianapolis Colts, Los Angeles Chargers or Pittsburgh Steelers in the first round depending on Week 18’s outcomes.
