Since haste makes waste and both conference title tilts are just over 72 hours away, let’s get down to business!
Philadelphia looked even better than their conference counterparts in holding the dangerous Atlanta Falcons to just 10 points in their divisional matchup, although it should be noted that the Falcons really struggled to score the ball all season long.
Now, NFL bettors need to know that the Under is a consistent 10-2 in Minnesota’s last 12 road games against a team with a winning home record and an equally impressive 20-7 in their last 27 games against a team with a winning record.
The Under is also 4-0 in Philadelphia’s last 4 home games, 6-0 in their last six home games against a team with a winning road record and 6-2 in their last 8 games overall.
The Under is also a perfect 4-0 in the last four meetings between these conference rivals when they meet in Philadelphia and 5-2 in the last seven meetings overall.

Expert Final Analysis & Betting Pick
So, what does all of the aforementioned trends mean? It sounds to me like it means that New England usually shuts down their opponents in the AFC championship and that Jacksonville has done the same to the vast majority of their AFC rivals. Personally, I think 46 points is a bit too high for these two teams to topple, which is why I’m going to encourage you to take the Under. I’m thinking we’re looking at a final score of New England 21 Jacksonville 17…or something very, very close to that!
