Post#1 will be updated daily to show all divisional round investments and predictions.



After having an absolutely horrible NFL betting season ( -$3100+ on CTG) it sure felt great to go 7-2. (+$2,375) on WILDCARD weekend.



Anyways let's move on to the Divisional round!!!

***POINT SPREAD RATINGS SUGGESTED PLAYS are at least 3.33 off the actual line


PATRIOTS 99.63. HF+2.59
TEXANS. 103.56. ***-1.34

BRONCOS. 98.68 HF +2.83
BILLS. 101..99 -0.48

SEAHAWKS. 102.82. HF+2.43. -7.29
49ERS. 97.96.

RAMS. 103.52. -4.8
BEARS. 96.49. HF +2.23





BILLS AT BRONCOS

The player props should once again dominate my bet slips thou ..Brandin Cooks jumped at the page at 21.5 Tuesday morning before work.
If I could have bet more than the ( to win $800) slip below I would have .
Troy Franklin looks good in this spot as well. Was expecting Oddsmakers to release his number around 25.5. .
Jaleel McLaughlin is the type of back who could get the Bills fits. The Broncos run blocking schemes have given Buffalo issues this season as well.
Keon Coleman is worth a bet at the lowly 20.5 as well. He should get more than the 22 snaps last week as the best blocking wr left ..Also this was Josh's guy he wanted in the draft last year.

Could be some funky Bills formations on Sunday as they're down another 2 WR ( Davis and Shavers). Both of them were easily the best run blocking WR'S on the squad. I'm expecting more 2-3 TE looks , sprinkling in some extra tackle with the nasty Alec Anderson. Anderson played very well vs Denver last year in the playoffs in his "Bully" role ,mashing defenders , sometimes in motion. Excellent rookie blocking TE Jackson Hawes has taken over Anderson's role this season, but those injuries at WR might have both of them on the field at times.
On defense the BILLS are scrambling at safety with Poyer now out. Which might not be a bad thing considering his strength was against the run , as his coverage skills have greatly diminished at this late stage of his career. Ed Oliver and Curtis Samuel have been activated.


**** Update after Saturday ..
Damn Cooks needed to catch that Ball !!! BILLS CHOKE AGAIN 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🙃🙃😂😂😂

-$1710.50 overall on the Bills game ( on 1-4 standard bets) ...
Had Cooks caught the ball at the 20 not only do the bills in all likelihood win , but my figure for the game is +31.50 ..


-$518 on Seahawks v 49ers game ( 0-1 on standard bets ) .

All that wild card profit is nearly burned 🙃😂

Right back to the well on Brandin Cooks. If there is one thing he is still good at it's getting open down the field . In his last 2 games Cooks has gone for 58 and 106. If Josh doesn't miss him on the deep sideline play and Cooks doesn't drop one he probably would have went for 110+ vs the Jags ...
I expected Oddsmakers to adjust his number to at least 32.5 this week ..Insta Bet below

He up to 25.5 today. Don’t think it matter tho. I did cooks ov 22.5/bills tt ov parlay to start.

Think Franklin for donks another wr that could cash fairly easily. His number only 20.5, I never wanna play the wr who draws bills most focus but that obviously won’t be Franklin. I’ve done really well with him this year, he generally smashes his number when he goes over so he one my fav early alt candidates to wheel.

Can't tell you how many times this season I've read your post thinking wow we're on the same page. I bet Franklin several times earlier in the season and cashed. Left with a sour taste in my mouth later in the year when he went under back to back weeks vs Washington and Las Vegas. Both of those games he was my only leg on a longshot parlays that would have paid over a grand each for $20-25( was betting stupid parlays trying to recoup the losses from the season) ..

Franklin is exactly the type of player that could give the Bills fits this Saturday. I'm tempted to bet 2-3 units on him at this low number /20.5 ...

Might also wheel him up the board to at least 50 if the prices are right ..

Think he profiles pretty similar to Parker Washington who I had last week vs ya’ll. Don’t ask me how or why but I’ve been pretty good picking out the times to play Franklin this year. Not sure his number ever been this low? 20.5 pretty crazy for a dude with 60-700 on the year. this has to be cause bills pass d which obviously really good, no chance I’d play Sutton or anyone who lines up predominantly on outside but Franklin plays over 40% in the slot this year. Dude has 7 games with a 20+ yard catch and gets 4-5 or more targets damn near every week. If memory serves me right donks hit a bomb to him vs ya’ll in last years playoffs too!

He sure did hit a 47 yd TD vs the BILLS last season ...Only Broncos TD of the game ..

Only initial thing holding back from Franklin is rookie Pat Bryant ..Really like this kid who Payton has compared to Michael Thomas ( became more realistic when Bryant got hurt as Thomas was Dr. glass who also like throwing bricks at contractors 🙃) ... Probably betting Franklin within the hour thou .

Just stopped by the sportsbook on the way home , SSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHIIIIITTTTTT
COOKS jumped to 28.5 here , probably since the news that Shavers is out ...Cooks longest catch will probably be my next bet on this game...

Yea I saw cooks up to 28-29 other places also.

Donks for sure have a bunch of dudes at wr which why franklins numbers all over the place gm to gm but I feel pretty good at this low a number.

I’m growing pretty fond of cook rushing prop this week. I had no interest last week cause that gm set up for it to be Allen throwing, I don’t think it be that way in Denver. Seeing how they got the short end of nfl bs scheduling I like he didn’t get overworked last week, I don’t see a world he doesn’t get 20 carries here. If memory serves me right again he abused donks in that playoff gm!

..This 16.5 on Cooks longest catch is probably good , but I'm thinking over 2.5 catches +100 might be better ..Don't like either for more than 1-1.5 units thou ..


About to buy the dip on Franklin ...19.5 looks very nice ..Maybe 2-2.5 units

id still play cooks (im committed at 22.5) but @Lexington 125 makes a fair point he could very well be drawing attention from Sertain. Don’t love that or the fact everyone starting to notice! He might have took eagles by surprise and we knew going in jags secondary was a weakness. Don’t love him as much this week but still dunno how ya pass on a teams top outside option at anything less than 30?

Shavers is now out, GABE is done !!
Left with Shakir, Cooks and Coleman ...
Curtis Samuel might be back, Hardman might get called up..
Signed preseason star journeymen Kristian Wilkerson today ...
Rumor has it Amari Cooper and possibly 2 other players have been contacted ..

Wouldn't be shocked if the BILLS lineup with 3 TE ( Rookie Hawes is supposedly a top 3 blocking TE in the league ) ...Thinking mashing swing Nasty mean motion tackle Alec Anderson will get more burn too .. He bullied the Broncos in last year's playoff game at times. Hawes excellent blocking has kept him on the bench this season .
Alec Anderson might be a starter at tackle on 8+ teams ( or not 😂)
 
2 units (to WIN $400)

Franklin could benefit from soft zone coverage at times throughout this game. . Such a low number that in almost any game scenario this could cash 🤑...

🤣Or he doesn't catch a ball ( who knows ?)

This is the Madden early sims and user vs user BEST BET for receiving yards over for the BILLS at Broncos...His average was 36.67
Which means nothing 🙃

CHRISTIAN is an INSTA bet at this price vs anyone ..Even if the 49ers don't score I'd make this bet next week at this price ( win or lose )

Screenshot_20260113-212647.Chrome.png
 
Trying to have some discipline so I don't fire more on this one ..Think this is a much better bet than BILLS ML ...Win or lose Buffalo scored 23+ more often than not Imo..

Dup.....Thoughts on Coleman O20.5 receiving yds? Gotta figure about 100% of focus from Denver D and people bets will be on Shakir/Cooks/Knox/Kincaid and Cook out of the backfield.....Keon averaging about 4 targets per game this year but has tapered off last half of the season.....pressed into further duty, all hes probably gonna need is 2 catches and 1 might even do it....Think Cooks will have the safeties attention deep and Shakir lives 5-15 yards down field.....Cook out of the backfield will have the LBs playing to cover (not to mention Allen possibly scrambling).Keon will be in the mix from 15-25 yards with a non dominate corner who he has a size advantage on......

Let's hope Keon shows up on time this week to practice and meetings ..Right now it ounds like he might only be on the field when the BILLS go "11 personal"/3 WR sets ...Imo he is the best blocking wr ( something the Bills highly value ) left with the Shavers and Davis injuries...He might go over his total but do have some concerns they use more tight ends this game ..

My other major concern about Coleman is Curtis Samuel practiced in full today. Worried he could steal some of Coleman's snaps/possible targets , although he might not even suit up

...Just was listening to a Denver sports radio guy who thinks Surtain may rotate between Kincaid and Shakir ( who the F knows thou 🤣) ...
That Coleman over is decent at 21.5 , don't let me talk you out of it ..If it goes over , it probably sails way over ...Pass for me , but you and others could make a case for it

Alright I'm down with ya 🤣🤣
Just ran into a much respected local capper who is usually very sharp on Bills player props ..Keon is his guy this week !!
He truly is the best run blocking wr left on the roster , something that's a premium quality for this offense..Maybe he doesn't see more than 2 or 3 targets in the worst scenario, but this is such a low number.

Thank you for the heads up in the right direction BROTHER...Sweep your slate 🤑💵

CJ STROUD OVER 10.5 RUSH YARDS -109
$218/200. 1 unit


CJ went over this number the first 8 games of the season. Since the injury he has gone under 7 straight games. Can't tell you how many times vs the Steelers I'm screaming "RUN" as he stood there with wide open green in front of him.
Think he'll need to take off this game vs the Patriots ..

Next to Cooks and BILLS over 22.5 , McLaughlin looks like my favorite bet on the whole divisional slate . He's gone over this number 3 in a row and 5 of the last 6. He's the type of back who could give the Bills fits ..

Just awful. Cooks got interfered with at the end of regulation in the endzone....then catches a pass and gets landed on and Denver winds up with the ball.....just terrible officials all day.....Josh Allens fumble to end the 1st H that gave Denver a free FG was one of the dumbest plays EVER.....they didn't have a timeout....should have just kneeled....freakin McDermott

Yeah Cooks definitely got interfered with at the end of regulation by Moss (most penalized CB in league .) ..
Allen's fumble before half has easily the worst fumble for no reason I've ever seen 🙃🙃🙃🙃..
Awful job by Mcdemott not blitzing Nix on every play. When the bills did he often just threw it away.
All that nonsense could have been wiped away had Cooks just came down at the 20 🤬🤬🤬...

Now we're stuck with a team with a lame QB in the AFC championship...Pats or Texans should win by a TD or more ..

.Really pulling for Houston today !!! They remind of old school physical defensive football of the 70's and 80's .
 
Moving on to Sunday 😂😂😂

Happy to see Noel at this lowly number, think he may catch a deep one ..Tempted to bet him up the ladder for cheap .

While I have w bad feeling the NFL would really like to see the Pats in the Super Bowl there is no way that I can pass on the Texans at +145. Strongly believe they're possibly the best team left in the playoffs. Patriots have only played 3 teams with a winning record this season ( Bills, Steelers, and Chargers) , and none of those 3 have a defense anything like the Texans .

Texans ML +145
