This is the first weekend of the NFL playoffs, and below we have the spreads, odds and Over/Unders for each game. We also have a full list of prop bets for this weekend. All bets are from the online sports book Bovada.
The first playoff game (Saturday at 4:30 EST ) is between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Houston Texans. This is a rematch of last year’s playoff in which the Texans won 31-10. This year Texans are the third seed in the AFC. They finished the year at 12-4, and lost twice to close out their season. They are favored by 5 Over/Under the Bengals. Cincinnati finished the year at 10-6. This is the first time these teams are meeting this season.
| TEAMS | POINT SPREAD | MONEYLINE | TOTAL | TOTAL ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cincinnati Bengals | +5 | +170 | 43 | (-115)o |
| Houston Texans | -5 | -200 | (-105)u |
The second game on Saturday is the Minnesota Vikings (10-6) at the Green Bay Packers (11-5). The Packers are big favorites in this one. These teams played twice during the regular season. The Packers won in Green Bay, and the Vikings just beat the Packers in Minnesota last weekend. These division rivals know each other well. Whoever wins this one should be exciting.
| TEAMS | POINT SPREAD | MONEYLINE | TOTAL | TOTAL ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minnesota Vikings | +9 (-135) | +300 | 46½ | (-110)o |
| Green Bay Packers | -9 (+115) | -400 | (-110)u |
The first game on Sunday features the Indianapolis Colts taking on the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens (10-6) are home and coming off a loss to Cincinnati. Baltimore has lost 4 of their last 5 games. Meanwhile the Colts closed out their season with a win Over/Under the Texans. While the Ravens are favored in this game, the Colts have been the better team Over/Under the last month.
| TEAMS | POINT SPREAD | MONEYLINE | TOTAL | TOTAL ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indianapolis Colts | +7 (-120) | +250 | 47 | (-110)o |
| Baltimore Ravens | -7 (EVEN) | -300 | (-110)u |
The last game of the week is between the Seattle Seahawks (11-5) and the Washington Redskins (10-6). Even though the Seahawks have the better record, the game is in Washington because Seattle is a wildcard team. This creates an interesting scenario where the playoff home team is an underdog. A lot of gamblers love to be home-dogs, so I would expect there to be a lot of action on both teams.
| TEAMS | POINT SPREAD | MONEYLINE | TOTAL | TOTAL ODDS |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seattle Seahawks | -3 (-105) | -145 | 46 | (-110)o |
| Washington Redskins | +3 (-115) | +125 | (-110)u |
