NFL Parlay Picks This Week: Divisional Round

We are down to only eight teams remaining with a shot to take home the Lombardi Trophy in February. While on one hand, I’m sad the NFL season is inching closer to completion, on the other hand, I am ecstatic to watch the eight best teams in the NFL go at it over the course of this upcoming weekend. To add the excitement on the field, I will be taking a look at my best parlay picks for the NFL Divisional Round.

Now that we have an understanding of the current spreads and totals for every matchup of the NFL’s Divisional Playoff Round, let’s dive into my two best parlays for the four games this weekend.

NFL Parlay Pick: Buffalo, Bills/Chiefs Under, Tampa Bay

Bills +1.5, -106
Bills/Chiefs U 53.5 -106
Buccaneers ML -146

+497, FanDuel Sportsbook

In a rematch of last years’ AFC Championship game, both the Chiefs and Bills have had their ups and downs this season. The Chiefs had the worst defense in the NFL earlier in the season the Bills suffered a few losses to inferior foes such as the Jaguars. Both Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen have played at MVP levels this season but have also struggled at times to play to their standards. The Bills have the best defense in the NFL to complement one of the NFL’s top offenses, and while the Chiefs have made strides on the defensive end, I do not think they can contain the Bills. I expect both teams to lean on the ground game, keeping the total final score below 54, and I think the Bills become this year’s AFC Champions.

As for the Buccaneers and the Rams, I am simply choosing the quarterback with more experience to get the job done. Matthew Stafford won the first playoff of his NFL career last weekend. Tom Brady is going for his 34th career playoff win. While the Rams are solid on all areas of the field, I like the Buccaneers to edge out the NFC West Champions.

NFL Parlay Pick: Tennessee, Buffalo, Tampa Bay

Titans ML -180
Buccaneers ML -145
Bills +1.5 -106

+409, FanDuel Sportsbook

We already know how I feel about the Bills and the Buccaneers this weekend, so let’s focus on the Titans. While Joe Burrow and the Bengals have been electric over the last month of the season, I think recency bias is clouding people’s memories of how good the Titans are. They were the No. 1 seed in the AFC for a reason. They are one of the best-coached teams in the NFL, they are a tough, physical, team and I expect them to come out with fire and take care of the Bengals.
