A week after almost no one gave the Cleveland Browns a chance in facing the Pittsburgh Steelers in the wild-card round, the Browns are even bigger underdogs in the divisional round matchup in Kansas City with the Chiefs.
The Browns have opened as 10-point underdogs against the reigning Super Bowl champs at BetMGM, a line that carries consistently across most sportsbooks. At 55.5, the over/under line is the highest of the upcoming divisional round games.
Kansas City is the AFC’s top seed and earned a bye in the opening weekend. The Browns are the lowest remaining seed at No. 6. Kansas City finished 14-2 while the Browns completed the regular season at 11-5 before trouncing the Steelers in the opening round.
