Will road teams continue their season-long success with a 143-107-10 record against the spread this season? All of the divisional round NFL lines are listed below, and SportsLine's advanced computer model has all the NFL betting advice and predictions you need to make the best divisional round NFL picks now.
Winning picks from a proven model
The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up over $7,000 for $100 players on its top-rated NFL picks since its inception four years ago. It's on a 96-65 roll on top-rated picks that dates back to 2017, and last season, the model also ranked in the Top 10 on NFLPickWatch for the third year in a row on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 96 percent of CBS Sports office pool players.
Anyone who has followed it has consistently beaten NFL odds and is way up. Now, the computer examined the latest NFL odds and lines, simulated every snap, and its divisional round NFL predictions are in.
Divisional round NFL picks to target
One of the divisional round NFL predictions from the model is that the Seahawks cover as four-point underdogs against the Packers at Lambeau Field. Even though they're not division foes, the Seahawks and Packers have developed a rivalry as two of the premier franchises in the NFC. Sunday will be their seventh head-to-head matchup since 2014 and they've split the previous six meetings head-to-head.
The Seahawks allowed just nine points and recorded seven sacks last week in a win over the Eagles. On the other sideline, the Packers allowed just 14.2 points per game in their last five, meaning Sunday's meeting could wind up being too low-scoring for the Packers to open up a sizable lead. And a Packers run defense that ranked 23rd in the NFL should give the Seahawks an opportunity to establish more balance offensively.
The model says the Seahawks rush for over 125 yards, while Russell Wilson throws for 250 yards and two touchdowns as Seattle covers in over 50 percent of simulations. Meanwhile, the over (45.5) also has plenty of value.
The model also has made the call against the spread, on the over-under, and on the money line for every other game on the divisional round NFL schedule. It's also projecting a top Super Bowl contender to go down in a game that will shake up the 2020 NFL playoff bracket in a huge way, so you need to see its NFL picks before locking in any of your own.
