After a mild first night of the 2025 NFL Playoffs, we look to make up for it with three more Wild Card games. First kickoff takes place at 1:00 p.m. ET, and we close the night with an 8:00 p.m. nightcap.
The 7-seed Denver Broncos (10-7) travel across the country to take on the 2-seed AFC East Champion Buffalo Bills (13-4) to start the day. The Bills are 8.5 favorites and the total is set for 48.
Following that, we have a 4:30 p.m. kickoff between the Green Bay Packers (11-6) and the NFC East Champion Philadelphia Eagles (14-3). Philadelphia enters as 5-point favorites, and the total is listed at 45.5.
Finally, the Washington Commanders (12-5) head south to face the NFC South Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs are favored by 3-point favorites with the total set at 50.
For today's festivities, I've compiled a four-leg "lotto ticket" parlay at +675 odds on bet365.
Josh Allen 40+ Rushing Yards
Josh Allen averaged over 70 yards rushing in last year's playoffs and I expect him to keep his legs moving against the Broncos.
Marvin Mims Jr. 40+ Receiving Yards
Marvin Mims has been getting explosive plays every week with Bo Nix slinging to him. I see him getting opening with all eyes on Courtland Sutton and securing his yards total.
Saquon Barkley Anytime Touchdown
Saquon Barkley has been an absolute menace on the ground this year, finishing with over 2,000 yards and 13 touchdowns.
On Opening Night in Brazil, he had three touchdowns against Green Bay and I see him finding the end zone yet again.
Jalen McMillan 50+ Receiving Yards
Jalen McMillan has been one of the best finds by Tampa's offense this year. I expect Mike Evans to draw most of the coverage with Marshon Lattimore all over him.
This will open up plenty of space for McMillan to get his receiving yards.
