Dolphins vs. Chiefs schedule, TV: Fans outraged over how to watch NFL Playoffs game

The Arizona Republic: Chiefs 24, Dolphins 20

Jeremy Cluff writes: "This is a rematch of an NFL Week 9 game in Germany that the Chiefs won, 21-14. The Chiefs may not be as good as they were last season, but they still have the experience factor and the Dolphins only have one win against a team with a winning record all season."

Bookies.com: Take the Chiefs to cover vs. Dolphins

Bill Speros writes: "In the greatest NFL TV marketing move since the ABC launched "Monday Night Football" in 1970, the NFL and NBC have shifted Taylor Swift cheering on her beau Travis Kelce to the streaming service 'Peacock.' The reaction on social media has been fierce. And it's only Monday. The Dolphins got smashed in the face by Baltimore and Buffalo over their final 2 games. Sunday night's was close on the scoreboard (21-14) but Miami's chance for a possible comeback ended with a Tua Tagovailoa pick. The Chiefs got this far riding their defense. And they've face Ty Hill in practice for years. Expect Mahomes and the fully-healed Maauto to get it together this week. This line has already moved from 3 to -3.5, with the early money pouring in on KC Sunday night. The total has tumbled from 47.5 to 43.5. Temperatures are expected to be in the single digits Saturday night in Kansas City. Frozen Fish."

Pro Football Network: Bet the under in Chiefs vs. Dolphins game

Brian Blewis writes: "I know the Dolphins are really banged up on defense, but this Chiefs offense, even with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid, hasn’t been consistently explosive all season long. Maybe they can take advantage of a Miami team missing key defensive players, but my initial read in this matchup is to take the under."
