After some not so thrilling wild card games we must be in for a treat with these matchups for the NFL divisional round. Before we get into our NFL picks I want to recap last weeks picks. We were 2-0 on the day getting the Bills (-10) and the Buccaneers (-3).

Texans at Ravens (-9.5)
This is a matchup no one expected at the beginning of the year. Texans in the Divisional round??? Welp we are here and C.J. Stroud has been tearing up defenses all year long however this is a tough matchup in Baltimore. With that I have Ravens -9.5, you may be saying two possession game with one of the best quarterbacks in C.J. Stroud? Yes this will be a huge win by the Ravens solidifying a conference playoff matchup and one of my personal NFL picks this week.
Prediction: Ravens -9.5
Packers at 49ers (-9.5)
Another two possession matchup in the NFL picks this week. The packers have been real hot after beating the Cowboys in Dallas. On the other hand the 49ers have been a bit underwhelming after losing to the rams and previously not playing too great. I got Packers -9.5 this week and this is the first ever Ricky Rockets Max play. Yes you heard it I am doing this as 5 units as I love this play and will have Packers money line as well.
Prediction: Packers +9.5 (Ricky Rockets Max Play 5U)
Buccaneers at Lions (-6.5)
Here we are, the Buccaneers have made its way to Detroit. However, they’re up against a solid opponent in Detroit. With that in mind, I’m leaning towards Lions -6.5. You might question, against a team that’s been on a roll? Yes, I see this as a good win at home for the Lions, putting their place in the conference playoff in who know hows long. This is one of my top NFL picks for the week and like the play.
Prediction: Lions -6.5
Chiefs at Bills -2.5
They left the best matchup for last and I’m all here for it. This could be the game of the year and where Josh Allen proves he’s the best QB in the league. They’re in playing in the Bills Mafia and I think its a easy pick give me Bills -2.5 and I’ll see all you guys at the cash table.
