NFL Divisional Round Dark Horses & Betting Picks

 

The Wild Card Round is in the books, and you have to say it did not go as most of us expected. MyBookie Sportsbook 2024 NFL Divisional Round Dark Horse Wagering Picks

Upsets were the order of the weekend, with Houston, Green Bay, and Tampa Bay all knocking out teams that were expected to move on and perhaps even compete for a Super Bowl. While those wins were great for the teams that moved on, there is no time for any of them to rest on their laurels, as the Divisional Round is now almost upon us. There are 4 games this weekend, with 2 coming on Saturday and the other 2 on Sunday, but are we going to see some more upsets? What we are going to do here is look at the underdogs in all 4 games to try and figure out the best way to wager on them, so let’s get to it.

 

Houston Texans at Baltimore Ravens

It seems that the Houston Texans are on an AFC North tour as they look to make an improbable run to the Super Bowl. They totally destroyed the Cleveland Browns in the Wild Card Game, but that one did come on home soil. This weekend, they need to hit the road to face the Baltimore Ravens, a team that a lot of pundits now have as the favorite to win it all. The Texans head to Baltimore as a 9-point underdog, which seems a little on the high side to me.

That did not seem like an issue for them in the Wild Card, though, as they went into Dallas and laid an absolute beating on the Cowboys. This, though, feels like a tougher assignment, as witnessed by the Packers heading to the bay area as a 9 ½ point underdog. They have covered in 6 of their last 9 overall, but I am looking at the OVER here, as that is how things have gone in each of their last 6 road games.

Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills

This matchup seemed somehow inevitable, as these two teams have been on a collision course over the past 2 or 3 seasons. Both made light work of the Wild Card Round, and this one is expected to be close, just as it was when they met in the regular season, The Chiefs are in as a 2 ½ point underdog, which to me essentially makes this a pick ‘em type of game. I would not be surprised to see the Chiefs go into Buffalo and get the win.
