D.S. Williamson | MyBookie Sports Writer
D.S. Williamson approaches Divisional betting through quarterback reliability, matchup leverage, and playoff-tested execution.
His focus is identifying teams built to handle elimination pressure.
🏈 D.S. Williamson NFL Divisional Picks
NFL Divisional ATS Picks
Buffalo Bills -1.5 at Denver Broncos
The odds don’t make much sense in this one. The Jaguars dominated the game versus the Bills. It took Superman, that’s Josh Allen, for the Bills to get it done.
But Allen’s heroics came with a cost. The Jaguars beat up Allen for most of the game. On Saturday, Allen and the Bills face a similar ball hawking and hard hitting defense. So Allen is going to have to be the hero again.
It don’t see it happening. Sean Payton has had a couple of weeks to prepare for the Bills defense, one that struggled to stop the run. Payton will scheme the Broncos into a position to win this straight up. Think under the total of 46.5, because Payton and Bo Nix are going to orchestrate long drives, to the Denver moneyline.

San Francisco 49ers at Seattle Seahawks -7
Yes, Seattle dusted the Niners 13-3 in the last game, holding SF’s vaunted offense to a field goal.
But the win deserves an asterisk because San Francisco played without Trent Williams, the best tackle in pro football.
Williams and the Niners’ offensive line handled the Eagles’ pass rush on Sunday. So much so that San Francisco knocked off Philadelphia, the defending Super Bowl Champions.
On Saturday, Robert Salah will have a great scheme to hold Seattle to around 13 points again while Williams on the O-line should do just enough to give Brock Purdy and Chrisitan McCaffrey time to move the football.
Taking the points is a for sure bet while placing a few bucks on the SF moneyline makes sense. Also, this should go under the 45.5 total.

LA Rams -3.5 at Chicago Bears
It fell on Caleb Williams again to rally the Chicago Bears versus the Green Bay Packers. Cale was awesome in the fourth quarter.
The Bears’ defense also stepped it up in the second half.
But we have to consider that Matt LaFleur doesn’t know how to adjust at halftime.
I mean, this is the second time in a row, LaFleur and his staff allowed Ben Johnson and his staff, especially defensive coordinator Dennis Allen, to make the necessary adjustments that pushed the Bears to the win.
Sean McVay adjusts in game as well as any coach in the NFL.
McVay won’t allow Williams to rally the Bears in this and, yes, the Bears should be behind.
Jordan Love had his way against the Bears defense in the first half.
On Sunday, Chicago faces the likely NFL MVP in Matthew Stafford and a receiving corps made up of a couple of potential hall of fame players in Davante Adams and Puka Nucua.
Kyren Williams is also one of the top running backs in the league.
The Rams score the cover win but I’m not positive the Bears score enough for over the total.

Houston Texans at New England Patriots -3
This should be a tough in the trenches game but it won’t.
The reason is because the Houston defense is much better than New England’s.
Hard to write? Not really. Houston will dominate both lines of scrimmage because the Pats struggle to stop the run.
Sure, New England looked good versus the Bolts, but the Chargers’ offensive line was a mess.
Woody Marks runs behind one of the more solid lines in football.
Expect Houston to be in control from the start in a straight up victory. Also, at +850, the Texans are now the overlay to win the Lombardi.

Henry Watkins evaluates Divisional games through pace, efficiency, and late-game scoring dynamics.
His NFL playoff analysis centers on how games tighten under pressure.
🏈 Henry Watkins NFL Divisional Picks
NFL Divisional Round SU Picks
There are 4 games coming this weekend, so let’s cover them all starting with the Bills and Broncos. I sense this could be the Bills year, so I am taking them to win.
It seems to me that not a lot of people are talking about the Seahawks, but they might need to start, as I like them over the 49ers.
I think we are looking at a low scoring game between the Patriots and Texans and I am on New England to edge it.
On the flipside, I think we get offense in the Rams/Bears game, with Stafford helping LA to the win.

NFL Divisional Round ATS Picks
As it stands right now, the Bills are a 1-point favorite over the Broncos, and since I like them to win, they will cover, too.
While I think the Seahawks will beat the 49ers, I am not sold on the 7-point spread, so I will go with San Francisco to cover.
Not sitting on the fence here, but the Patriots are a 3-point favorite and this one feels like a push.
The Rams start their game against the Bears as a 3 ½ point favorite, and I like them to just cover that spread.

NFL Divisional Round O/U Picks
I am on the fence with the 46-point total in the Bills/Broncos game, but I think it creeps just OVER the total.
It’s a similar story with the Seahawks and 49ers, but again, I think we see this one go slightly OVER the 45-point total.
Of the 4 games this weekend, I think the Patriots/Texans matchup is likely to be the lowest scoring, so I am going UNDER 41 points.
Finally, I think we get a lot of scoring between the Rams and the Bears, so I am taking this one to go OVER the 49-point total.
