Weather may be playing a role with that over/under.

However, the Patriots played in cold conditions last week in Foxboro, and they crushed the Los Angeles Chargers 41-28 (over 48) as 4-point home favorites.

The Chiefs weren’t thrown off by last week’s wintry weather at Arrowhead. They had little trouble putting away the Indianapolis Colts (+4.5) 31-13 in the Divisional Round; the Colts couldn’t gain enough traction to go over the 55-point total for that matchup. Conditions were much better in Week 6 when New England beat the Chiefs (+3.5) 43-40 in a Sunday nighter at Gillette Stadium, easily going over 59.5 points.
