Divisional Round NFL Parlay Picks: The King Returns and Scores

Four great matchups take place across NFL Divisional Round weekend, with the two conference No. 1 seeds entering the picture and joining last weekend’s winners. 

Here's a closer look at my two favorite NFL parlay picks with a wide range of bets.

Parlay Pick 1

PARLAY: Davante Adams Over 7.5 receptions (-130) + Mike Evans Over 69.5 receiving yards (-110) = +237

Davante Adams Over 7.5 receptions (-130)

The San Francisco 49ers travel to Lambeau Field to take on the Green Bay Packers in a matchup that redefines the word "cold", as temperatures are expected to be in the single-digit range at kickoff. Last week, the 49ers were able to pull off the upset against the Dallas Cowboys and find themselves in a very tough matchup against the Packers who look to make it to the NFC Championship Game for the third straight year. At home, the Packers went 8-0 SU and 7-1 ATS and boast an incredible 24-3 SU and 19-8 ATS home record under Matt LaFleur.

The last time these two teams met up Davante Adams had a monster game - 12 catches for 132 yards and a touchdown. Adams has been a focal part of their offense all year and boasts seven games with 8 or more receptions. In the most important game of the season to this point, Adams is once again a factor as Rodgers leans on his number one target.

Mike Evans Over 69.5 receiving yards (-110)

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Los Angeles Rams as Tom Brady looks to get one step closer to ring number eight. As for the Rams, quarterback Matthew Stafford was finally able to win his first playoff game as the Rams dominated the Arizona Cardinals from start to finish to secure their spot in the Divisional Round.

For the Bucs, with Chris Godwin out with an injury and Antonio Brown off the team, there is even more of an importance for Mike Evans to continue his success. He's in a tough matchup against first-team All-Pro Jalen Ramsey. I like both his yardage total and the receptions as I think both are set low, but I lean towards the yardage total because of his high 14 yards per catch average and the deep threat ability. Seven times this year has Evans caught a pass of 30 or more yards.

Parlay Pick 2

PARLAY: Derrick Henry anytime touchdown (-175) + Buffalo Bills first-half 3-way moneyline (+120) = +245

Derrick Henry anytime touchdown (-175)

The Cincinnati Bengals just recorded their first playoff victory since 1991, defeating the Las Vegas Raiders in a nailbiter 26-19. On Saturday, they take on the top-seeded Tennessee Titans, who will be reunited with Derrick Henry after he missed the final nine regular season games with a broken foot. In his absence, the Titans have been able to move the ball well, with D'Onta Foreman and Dontrell Hilliard stepping up huge, but getting Henry back adds a whole other element to this team.

Look for the Titans to establish the run early and often. In the regular season, they led the league in rushing attempts per game with 32.4 and find themselves in a decent matchup against a Bengals defense that gives up 4.4 yards a carry. Henry's rushing total is set high, and he is very capable of going over this number on volume alone, but I like backing the safer bet in betting on him to find the end zone at least once.

Buffalo Bills first-half 3-way moneyline (+120)

No team looked better than the Buffalo Bills last week in their 47-17 dismantling of the New England Patriots. The Bills were the first team in league history to score a touchdown on every offensive possession without a turnover, field goal, or punt. They match up against the Kansas City Chiefs, who will be home again and are also fresh off a dominant victory versus the Pittsburgh Steelers by a score of 42-21.

All signs point to an absolute shootout when two of the league's top offenses battle - both in the Top 5 in points per game, touchdowns per game and first-half points per game. I give the slight edge early to the Bills, who defensively have surrendered the fewest first-half points per game at 8.6 with that number very similar at home and on the road. Looking for some value here, take them on the first half 3-way money line at +120.
