Who wins Sunday’s Chiefs-Bengals duel for AFC supremacy + Super Bowl ticket? A podcast

The Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals will meet in the AFC Championship Game for the second straight year and it’s time to get in some final words before kickoff.

On today’s episode of The Star’s SportsBeat KC podcast, you’ll hear two conversations with The Star’s coverage team. Beat writers Jesse Newell and Herbie Teope break down some key factors for each side and what the Chiefs must do differently to end their three-game losing streak to the Bengals.

Also, how much will Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes be limited by his high-ankle sprain?

Then, columnists Sam McDowell and Vahe Gregorian take a broader view of the game from a Chiefs perspective. It shapes up as a pivot point in the AFC: A Chiefs victory sends them to their third Super Bowl in four years; a Bengals victory would allow them to plant the flag in the AFC.
