Where do experts from different media outlets stand for the AFC Championship Game between the Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs?

The Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs will meet in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday with a trip to Super Bowl LIV in Miami on the line.

These two teams have taken very different paths to get here.

The Chiefs secured the No. 2 seed and a first-round bye in Week 17, and then went on to annihilate the Houston Texans in the divisional round despite falling behind 24-0 at one point.

Meanwhile, the Titans had the tough task of navigating the playoffs as the No. 6 seed after their playoff-clinching win over the Texans in Week 17.

Since then, the Titans have pulled off a pair of upsets against the New England Patriots (No. 3 seed) and Baltimore Ravens (No. 1 seed), both on the back of their defense and rushing attack featuring running back Derrick Henry.

In an earlier meeting in Week 10 of this season, the Titans shocked the Chiefs and walked out of Nissan Stadium with a win, 35-32, thanks to a game-winning drive orchestrated by quarterback Ryan Tannehill and a blocked field goal by defensive back Joshua Kalu.

Once again, the Titans are flying under the radar, as all the talking heads are enamored with Patrick Mahomes and the high-powered Chiefs offense.

So, are the experts over at ESPN, CBS Sports, NFL.com and Sporting News falling in line with that?

Let’s find out now.
