(10-7) Houston Texans (4) @ (1) Kansas City Chiefs (15-2)
The first game of the Divisional Round of the 2025 NFL Playoffs sees the Number 4 seed Houston Texans head to the Number 1 seed Kansas City Chiefs! The Kansas City Chiefs enter this weekend off the back of a Bye and they’re looking to make it to their 7th-straight AFC Championship game! As for Houston, they breezed past the Los Angeles Chargers last time out and they’re looking for their first-ever win in the Divisional Round! In the end, I expect Kansas City to win here. If The Chiefs are going to slip up at any point between now and the Super Bowl, I don’t think it’s going to be against The Texans!
(12-5) Washington Commanders (6) @ (1) Detroit Lions (15-2)
The NFC’s Number 1 team The Lions return to action with a home game against The Commanders! The Detroit Lions enter this weekend off the back of a Bye and they’re looking to make it straight back to the NFC Championship game! As for Washington, their win in Tampa Bay last weekend was the only Road win of the weekend and they’re looking to win a Divisional Round game for the first time since 1992 (where they went on and won the Super Bowl)! In the end, I’d be surprised if The Lions slipped up here. This should be a really good game, but I still think Detroit will be too good for Washington to handle!
(10-7) Los Angeles Rams (4) @ (2) Philadelphia Eagles (14-3)
The Philadelphia Eagles welcome the Los Angeles Rams to Lincoln Financial Field for another big Playoff date! The Philadelphia Eagles were victorious over the Green Bay Packers last weekend and they’re looking to make it back to the NFC Championship game for the first time since 2023 (where they made it to the Super Bowl)! As for LA, they picked up a terrific win over Minnesota last time out and they’re looking to make it back to the NFC Championship game for the first time since 2022 (where they won the Super Bowl)! In the end, I think Philly will win here! The Eagles are really strong, and even though The Rams are really fired up with everything that’s been going on in LA, I still expect the hosts to get the job done!
(12-5) Baltimore Ravens (3) @ (2) Buffalo Bills (13-4)
Potentially the best game of the Divisional Round weekend takes place on Sunday Night Football as the Buffalo Bills host the Baltimore Ravens! The Buffalo Bills stuffed the Denver Broncos last time out and they’ve gone out at this stage in each of the last 3 seasons! As for Baltimore, they beat Pittsburgh Saturday Night and they’re looking to get straight back to the AFC Championship game! In the end, I think The Bills will just about edge this one! This is such a difficult game to call, it's definitely the Prediction I’m least confident with, but I will back Buffalo to win at home!
