WR is Cincy easily.
DL is Cincy, but not by much.
The Chiefs have the better TE and the better OL, easily.
It's a wash in the back sevens. The Bengals and Chiefs have really good linebackers, and both secondaries play well but have their deficiencies. (Theirs is talent levels, ours is a simplistic scheme.)

Hey, your guess is as good as mine.
though I gave CIN the nod at QB, because Burrow is healthy, and Mahomes is not. Not sure how that's "KC tinted."
Also, I don't see CIN having the better RBs, except in short yardage situations. As athletes, ours are better. Mixon and Perine are big, strong RBs with some wiggle and some receiving ability, but they aren't better than McK and Pacheco, imo.
But I will argue that their safeties are better than ours. They've been in scheme longer and I think they're probably better players overall. The CBs I might give KC a slight nod with Sneed and MCDuffie vs. their guys.
