Chiefs First Quarter Success

The Chiefs only scored three points in the first quarter of the AFC Championship game against a tough Cincinnati Bengals defense.

The Eagles have not converted a first quarter field goal all season, only touchdowns.

NFL sportsbooks recognize their first quarter dominance with -145 odds, yet this is still a valuable bet based on their high success rate.
