Building an NFL Playoffs Divisional Round parlay bet was not easy. Mostly because the matchups and odds are kind of clunky. Of course, this is what the sportsbooks want. That being said, there was a fun play that became evident after some digging.
We are going with a mix of moneyline wagers and against the spread picks this time around. And while this is an NFL Playoffs Divisional Round parlay bet, you are free to bet on individual games. But that’s lame. At the end of the article, you can find our wager and potential payout.

The Touchback’s NFL Playoffs Divisional Round parlay bet
Kansas City Chiefs (+10) vs. Cleveland Browns (-110)
At -500, the moneyline just ain’t worth it and would depress our NFL Playoffs Divisional Round parlay bet. The Cleveland Browns are a nice story and there is some risk with -10, but the Kansas City Chiefs seem likely to make it happen. Don’t overthink things here.
Buffalo Bills (-135) vs. Baltimore Ravens
Lamar Jackson’s comments about playing in the snow aside, the Baltimore Ravens aren’t as good as the Buffalo Bills this season. Anyone who’s read betting articles on The Touchback knows we love taking on risk, but the Ravens as an underdog just aren’t doing it for us this week.
Los Angeles Rams (+6.5) at Green Bay Packers (-105)
Are the Green Bay Packers actually good? Their 13 wins hide the fact they went 2-2 against playoff teams not named the Chicago Bears. On the flip side, the Los Angeles Rams are runn the ball well and play good defense, two things that should keep the game close. That makes the Rams at +6.5 attractive.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+150) at New Orleans Saints
Tom Brady in the NFL playoffs as an underdog? Yes, please. In all seriousness, the focus of this game seems to be on the fact the New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are playing for a third time this season. But it’s a shallow narrative that isn’t really relevant, especially this season. The first game was in week 1 after a truncated offseason. The week 9 game was terrible for the Bucs, but they have looked significantly better since their week 13 bye. Plus, this gives the parlay some needed juice.

Let’s be real. The chances of this parlay hitting are not great. But it’s fun as hell to play. And if we make through Saturday’s games with a chance than all bets are off. Pun fully intended.
