The 2025 NFL Playoffs have narrowed, and the powerhouses remain standing after a fairly predictable wild-card weekend. Besides minor upsets by the Texans and Commanders, it was a chalky couple of days.
The biggest game of the divisional round, Ravens vs. Bills in Buffalo, might be the best game of the entire postseason. The two leading candidates for MVP in Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, and two running backs with 18 touchdowns on the season in Derrick Henry and James Cook? Buffalo opened as a 1-point favorite with the moneylines basically set as a coin-flip. Translation: this is going to be good.

The top seeds in each conference also know their second-round opponents, and both the rested Lions and Chiefs have reason to be confident entering the weekend. Detroit will face Rookie of the Year favorite Jayden Daniels and the Commanders, while Kansas City will host 2024 ROY C.J. Stroud and the Texans. Both home faves are laying 8-plus points.
The biggest takeaways after seeing these opening lines: the inflated over/under totals. Commanders-Lions is set at a gargantuan 55.5 points, while Ravens-Bills is lower but still pretty high at 51.5. These numbers could provide savvy bettors with some solid alternate-under opportunities in mini-parlays.
