A total of 31.4 million Americans, up 35 percent from last year, are expected to wager on the NFL championship game between the Los Angeles Rams and Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, according to AGA research. It estimates that $7.61 billion will be wagered on the game, up 78 percent from the $3.33 billion that was bet last year on the game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs.
