AFC Championship Lookahead Lines: Oddsmakers Set Every Matchup at Near Coin Flip

In this story:
For the first time since 2019, a team not named the Kansas City Chiefs or Cincinnati Bengals will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl. With that being said, the AFC winner the year before, in 2018, was the New England Patriots, and they're very much alive to return to the big dance.
The Denver Broncos could return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 2016. The Buffalo Bills, if they win their next two games on the road, would return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1994. Finally, the Houston Texans would be making their first Super Bowl appearance in franchise history.
FanDuel Sportsbook has released the betting odds for all four hypothetical AFC Championship matchups, each of them having no team significantly favored over the other. Let's take a look.
