<h3><strong><u>The Betting Odds</u></strong></h3>
Martin Truex Jr. went into the Goodyear 400 as the only driver with multiple wins this season. He is still the only driver with multiple wins, as he racked up his third trip to Victory Lane in that race at Darlington. Not surprisingly, Truex Jr. is listed as the +400 favorite for this week at Dover.

Denny Hamlin, who secured his 10th top-five finish of the season last week, is the second favorite at +500. The usual suspects are all lined at short prices as well, with guys like Kyle Larson, Brad Keselowski, Chase Elliott, Kevin Harvick, and Kyle Busch anywhere from +700 to +1000.

Like we’ve talked about a lot this season already, NASCAR odds are pretty boilerplate. The top seven guys are +1000 or lower and then you have a Joey Logano or Ryan Blaney at 12/1 or 14/1 and then start will William Byron at 16/1 or 18/1 and go down from there.
<h3><strong><u>Dover</u></strong><strong><u> International Speedway</u></strong></h3>
The Monster Mile is the adopted name of the track in Dover, Delaware. It does measure one mile with 24-degree turns and nine-degree straightaways. The track opened in 1969 and used to have two races per year, but will only have one now. Dover lost its fall playoff date and now only has the one race in the spring.

Dover Motorsports owns the Nashville Superspeedway, which is a new addition to the NASCAR Cup Series circuit this year, so one of the Dover dates was taken away to accommodate the race in Music City, which should draw more crowds as a destination city.
<h3><strong><u>The Standings and Updated Championship Odds</u></strong></h3>
Denny Hamlin still has a comfortable points lead with 529, even though he has not won a race yet. Hamlin has 172 stage points, 55 more than anybody else. Martin Truex Jr. is second with 454 points. His 117 stage points are the second-most. William Byron is up to third in points now with a run of 11 straight finishes in the top 10, including a win at Homestead-Miami. Joey Logano is fourth with 406 points, but he has finished outside the top 12 in three straight races. Ryan Blaney is fifth, due in large part to his 111 stage points.

Kyle Larson, Kevin Harvick, Chase Elliott, Brad Keselowski, and Kyle Busch round out the top 10. Harvick and Elliott are still looking for their first wins. The other three and everybody else in the top 10 has won a race.

The other race winners are Christopher Bell, Alex Bowman, and Michael McDowell.

As far as the championship odds go, Harvick is still up near the top of the board because the championship race is at Phoenix. He hasn’t had a great season to this point, but the thought is that he’ll likely be a factor in the finale.
<h3><strong><u>Doin’ It At Dover</u></strong></h3>
Who has had success at Dover? Remember, this was a twice-a-year stop up until this year, so we have lots of data points at The Monster Mile. Kyle Busch, Harvick, Truex, and Ryan Newman all have three wins each at Dover. Busch’s 13 top-five finishes are the most of any driver. Harvick has 10 and the most top-10 finishes with 21.

Harvick’s 1,666 laps led over 40 races are the most, but Harvick’s 40 starts are second only to Kurt Busch. Kyle’s 1,213 laps led may be more impressive by comparison with just 32 starts.

The other drivers with wins here are Keselowski, Larson, Kurt Busch, Hamlin, Derrike Cope, and Chase Elliott.
<h3><strong><u>Doin’ It At Dover Recently</u></strong></h3>
If we look at the last 10 races, that is where a couple of names really stand out. Truex Jr. has averaged a top-five finish in his last 10 Dover starts with two wins, eight top-five finishes, and nine top-10 finishes. Larson has a win and five top-five outcomes. Harvick has two wins and five finishes in the top 10.

Ellliott has a win and has been in the top five seven times in his last 10 Dover starts. He only has eight lead lap finishes, so his average finishing position is 11.3, but seven top-five finishes out of eight finishes on the lead lap is really strong.

Cole Custer has finished 10th and 11th in two tries here, so we’ll see how that goes for him this week. Kyle Busch only has seven lead lap finishes in his last 10 tries, but a win, three top-five finishes, and six top-10 finishes.

There aren’t really a lot of surprises at Dover.
<h3><strong><u>Drydene 400 Picks &amp; Predictions</u></strong></h3>
It is really hard to go against Martin Truex Jr. with the run he’s on and his recent successes at Dover, so even though he is the favorite, you have to have him on your card.

I’ll also be looking at Chase Elliott this week. Elliott hasn’t put it all together yet, but ran well on the short track at Martinsville and had a top-five finish at Phoenix. He could very well win one of the next three races, as he’s good on road courses and great at Charlotte, but maybe he just goes ahead and gets one here.

Kyle Larson is the other one in the triumvirate this week and another guy you should watch in matchups. Larson led the most laps and won the second stage at Kansas, but finished 19th. He was second last week. He’s been consistently good except for the gimmicky dirt race at Bristol and then at Talladega. In regular races, he’s been great and should be again here.

Coverage of the Drydene 400 will be at 2 p.m. ET on Sunday on FS1.

Major League Baseball was founded all the way back in 1876, but the league has obviously gone through some major changes since that time. Most of the major rules are still in place, but the way that the game is played is now much different.

There are currently 30 teams in MLB, and every team plays 162 games during the regular season. MLB games typically start at the end of March, or early April, and the World Series wraps up during the first week of November.

MLB teams are split up into leagues and divisions, but there is now more crossover games than ever before. The American League and National League now operate under the same basic rules, and that keeps things similar regardless of what league you are looking at.

Knowing the best MLB betting sites &amp; sportsbooks is also important if you plan to bet on MLB, and this article will explore that as well. By the time you are done reading this article, you should be ready to bet on baseball.

<p>The 2022 AFC Championship Game is set for Sunday, January 30, with the kick-off at 3:00 PM ET, so we bring you the best Bengals vs. Chiefs betting pick along with the latest team news, stats, and betting odds.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Cincinnati meets Kansas City for the second time this season. Back in Week 17, the Bengals upset the Chiefs as 3.5-point home underdogs, overcoming an 11-point halftime deficit to escape with a 34-31 victory. Kansas City is a firm 7-point home fave this time around, while the totals sit at 54.5 points on <a href="https://bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/mybookie/">MyBookie Sportsbook</a>.</p>



<h2 id="the-bengals-stunned-the-no-1-seed-in-the-afc">The Bengals stunned the No. 1 seed in the AFC       </h2>



<p>The Cincinnati Bengals (12-7; 12-7 ATS) are coming off an impressive 19-16 road victory at the Tennessee Titans in the AFC divisional round. Playing as 4-point underdogs, the Bengals outlasted the top-seeded Titans on the back of rookie kicker Evan McPherson, who went 4-for-4, including the game-winning 52-yard field goal.</p>



<p>The Bengals’ defense stepped up as well and picked off Ryan Tannehill three times. On the other side of the ball, their offensive line was beaten hard and surrendered a whopping nine sacks. Joe Burrow went 28-of-37 for 348 yards and an interception, while Joe Mixon had 14 carries for 54 yards and a touchdown.</p>



<p>Rookie wideout Ja’Marr Chase had another big game, posting 109 yards on just five receptions. Chase has surpassed a 100-yard mark in four of his last five outings. The Bengals have won five of their last five games overall, covering the spread on all six occasions in the process.</p>



<h2 id="the-chiefs-rally-past-the-bills-in-a-wild-finish">The Chiefs rally past the Bills in a wild finish           </h2>



<p>The Kansas City Chiefs (14-5; 10-9 ATS) survived the AFC divisional round, outlasting the Buffalo Bills as small 2.5-point home favorites in overtime, 42-36. The reigning AFC champs trailed by three points with only 13 seconds left on the clock, but Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce managed to gain enough yards to enable a 49-yard field goal for Harrison Butker.</p>



<p>The Chiefs outgained the Bills 552-422 in one of the best playoff battles in recent NFL history. Neither team turned the ball over, while both scored twice in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter. Patrick Mahomes led the charge for the Chiefs and went 33-of-44 for 378 yards and three touchdowns.</p>



<p>Mahomes also had seven carries for 69 yards and a TD. Tyreek Hill recorded 11 receptions for 150 yards and a TD, while Travis Kelce added eight catches for 96 yards and a TD. The Chiefs registered their third straight victory and 11<sup>th</sup> in their last 12 games overall. They’ve gone 8-2 over the previous ten.</p>



<p><strong>Trends:</strong></p>



<p><strong>Cincinnati:</strong></p>



<ul><li>N/A</li></ul>



<p><strong>Kansas City:</strong></p>



<ul><li>8-2 ATS in the last ten games overall</li><li>6-0 ATS in the last six games at home</li></ul>



<h2 id="h-cincinnati-bengals-vs-kansas-city-chiefs-pick">Cincinnati Bengals vs. Kansas City Chiefs Pick</h2>



<p>That 34-31 loss at Cincinnati is the Chiefs’ loan defeat over the last 12 weeks. Patrick Mahomes and his teammates will be fired up to get revenge, and I think they’ll have enough firepower to beat the Bengals by seven or more points.</p>



<p>Cincinnati’s offensive line is slowing down, while the Chiefs’ front seven has been terrific over the last couple of months. Furthermore, the Chiefs possess more experience than this talented Bengals team. Kansas City aims for its third consecutive Super Bowl appearance, and with all their offensive playmakers healthy and raring to go, the Chiefs should cover in front of the home fans.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Take Kansas City Chiefs -7.0 at -110&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>



<p><strong>The Total:</strong></p>



<p>Just a few weeks ago, the Bengals and Chiefs combined for 65 points in total. We should see another high-scoring affair, especially if the Bengals’ offensive line finds a way to deal with pressure and provide enough time for Joe Burrow and the receiving corps.</p>



<p>However, the playoffs are a different stage, so the totals are a tricky wager with the line at 54.5 points. The over is 7-0 in Kansas City’s last seven outings, while the under is 5-2 in Cincinnati’s previous seven. Five of those Bengals’ seven games have produced fewer than 50 points in total.</p>



<p><strong>Pick: Go over 54.5 points at -110</strong></p>
