00:00We just talked about the AFC side, and let's take a look at some of these championship odds here,
00:06Mike, which, again, it seems to be a three-horse race here with the Chiefs, the Bills,
00:12and the Ravens. And quite honestly, until any one of those teams on the board can actually
00:18go to Arrowhead and beat the Chiefs, which is something none of them have been able to do,
00:24I get why Kansas City is the favorite, but is there any value anywhere else on this board here
00:29to you? Not much. I mean, certainly it is a three-horse race. I'd be stunned if any of the
00:35other four teams advanced even to the AFC championship game. So I think it's those three.
00:44None of us should be stunned if any of these three teams make it. The Chiefs have not looked
00:50like their best version of themselves this year. I picked them preseason, as you did,
00:56Joe, to go to the Super Bowl. I'm still expecting that, but my confidence level has dropped some.
01:02I think the odds are indicative of that. Lamar, had he not won last year or won previous MVPs,
01:09Lamar is probably the MVP of the league based on his efficiency and some of the numbers that
01:14he's put up this year. I think the story has the hay in the barn for Josh Allen to win it,
01:20but that's kind of the story. Both of those guys are MVP candidates and can carry the teams.
01:25If I were betting on someone other than the Chiefs, it would probably be the Bills.
01:30The Ravens have fixed some of the problems defensively that plagued them earlier in the year,
01:37but it's still in the back of my head that the defensive backfield has not played up to the level
01:42that was expected over the course of the season. They have played that way, though,
01:46in the last four to six weeks. So it's a Super Bowl-quality team. All three of them are.
