According to DraftKings, the Bengals will enter the game with the third-best odds among the playoffs' four remaining teams to win the Super Bowl. They are behind the Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles.

Cincinnati has odds of +260 to go all the way and win the Lombardi Trophy. Meanwhile, Kansas City is at +250, while Philadelphia is at +255.
