It’s the divisional round of the NFL postseason, and these are the weekends I live for.
Super Wild Card Weekend did well for me as my picks went a perfect 4-0, ending my cold run and bringing my season tally to 56-40-2.
This round is certain to bring the heat, as we have: the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs meeting up for the third time in the last four postseasons, San Francisco’s Kyle Shanahan going head-to-head against his old co-worker in Green Bay’s Matt LaFleur and the mighty Baltimore Ravens finally getting Mark Andrews back as they look to exorcise the ghosts of playoffs past.
It’s time to buckle up and get locked and loaded for this weekend’s action.
So, without further ado, here are my best bets for the divisional round.
Texans @ Ravens (4:30 p.m. ET Saturday, ESPN/ABC)
This line was 10, then Houston money drove it to 9 before a syndicate’s release pushed this back up to 9.5. I’ll have the Ravens in a teaser below the key numbers of 7 and 3.
Houston Texans
HOU
+9.5
+343
o43.5
Baltimore Ravens
BAL
-9.5
-441
u43.5
But I also think the rested Ravens could come out here and drop the hammer early on Houston, so I’ll go with Baltimore first half -6.
In all their biggest games this season, the Ravens have come out and gone to work early with dynamic game plans. And now, they’re as healthy as any team in the playoffs, with tight end Mark Andrews back. The only exception is Marlon Humphrey, which is concerning since he played in Week 17 but didn’t need to.
The Texans, conversely, are very banged up, especially on the defensive…
