So what did the consultants should say? Here’s our divisional spherical parlay, with all odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook.
Geoff: Kelce Over 5.5 receptions (-130)
Travis Kelce had 133 objectives and 97 receptions in the course of the common season, greater than final season and greater than 2021. There’s no participant who will profit extra from that lengthy break than him, and I’m betting on it.
When Kelce is on the sector for a playoff sport after every week or two off, he instantly turns into the highest precedence within the passing sport. It is Patrick Mahomes‘certain reply for each query. It’s at all times open and so they have a connection and chemistry in contrast to every other couple within the NFL.
Since the Chiefs’ Super Bowl run courting again to the 2019 season, Kelce has performed in eight video games after further relaxation. He was focused no less than six occasions with no less than six receptions in all eight video games. In the six video games that weren’t a Super Bowl sport, he had no less than 10 targets in all of them, with a minimal of seven receptions.
I see the sample holding for this Saturday afternoon sport.
Sammy: Commanders Over 22.5 factors (-130)
A wholesome Jayden Daniels ought to transfer the ball in opposition to this Lions protection. We’ve additionally seen Dan Quinn become an aggressive fourth down coach together with his offense. The Commanders have been 20 of 23 on fourth down within the common season, and transformed two essential fourth downs of their wild-card win over Tampa Bay. You want touchdowns to beat Detroit and I think about Washington preserving their foot on the gasoline on the Lions’ aspect of the sector.
We want three touchdowns and a discipline objective to carry this one house, which is not that tall of a job contemplating how frenetic the tempo of this sport may very well be.
The Bear: Eagles -6 in opposition to Arieti (-110)
One of three common season rematches within the playoffs, and the Rams are hoping for an entire 180 from their 37-20 loss to SoFi in Week 12.
In reality, it might not have even been that shut.
The Eagles outgained the Rams 481-290, averaged 7.1 yards per play, punted as soon as (on the second drive of the sport) and noticed their offensive line lead drives of 12 performs, 10 performs, 10 performed, eight performed and 12 performed.
The Rams simply could not get them off the sector, because the Eagles went 9 of 15 on third down and Saquon Barkley he ran for 255 yards.
It appears actually onerous to ask the Rams to go east after a brief week of play and an emotionally charged couple of weeks with all the pieces that occurs round Los Angeles.
By the way in which, Sunday’s climate forecast in Philadelphia requires snow showers, temperatures within the low 30s and winds round 10-15 miles per hour. These circumstances look like the sort the place the Eagles’ trenches can management the sport.
I do know Philly’s offense wasn’t nice final week Green Baynotably Jalen hurts‘ efficiency via the air. We’ll see if it was rust or if there are bigger considerations at play. Also, understand that because the playoff format modified 5 years in the past, underdogs who’ve received in Wild Card Weekend are simply 1-7 general (SU) and 4-4 in opposition to the unfold (ATS). Since 2015, groups which have received as underdogs within the wild card have gone 7-10 ATS and 2-15 SU.
So it is asking loads of the Rams to undoubtedly get the top outcome.
Will: Lamar Jackson over 53.5 dashing yards (-110)
I return to the identical argument that acquired us into the cash with ease final week in opposition to the Steelers, and for lots of the identical causes. Zay Flowers, the Ravens’ main receiver, is not sure if he’ll play once more this week, and if he’s out, the Ravens might as soon as once more must depend on Lamar Jackson’s legs to switch that manufacturing. Plus, when the Ravens throttled the Bills 35-10 in Week 4, Derrick Henry rushed for 199 yards and eight.5 yards per carry, so possibly he is the Bills’ important concern this week, which might additionally open up cap house and working lanes for Jackson. .
Quarterbacks who run greater than anticipated are typically an excellent wager to make within the playoffs. In the lengthy common season, quarterbacks would possibly throw the ball away or run out of bounds to protect their well being and keep away from taking huge hits when there is not any play to be made. In the postseason, on the subject of knockouts, the battle for each doable yard is extra prevalent.
Jackson ran for 81 yards final week in opposition to a stout Steelers protection, and ran six occasions for 54 yards in opposition to the Bills earlier this season. Getting above 53.5 is as soon as once more a stable wager.
