Divisional Weekend is here people and I don’t know about the rest of you but my excitement is once again at an all time high. Of course I’ve got a little anxiety but I’ll be honest after getting a playoff win under their belt I’ve convinced myself Washington can beat anyone. Forget just having hope that we can win, JD5 is already gifted us something greater and that’s belief. In season of broken records and improbable wins I truly believe that no matter the score, circumstances or opponent Jayden can give a chance to win. Speaking of wins we didn’t do that bad here at Bick’s Picks for Wild Card weekend. Technically we had a 4-2 record just picking the games but our greed got the better of us as our two Over bets went 0-2. The way I see it it’s more important that we get the games right anyways so hopefully we can keep doing that moving forward. It’s crazy to think we only got 7 games of football left this season but they should all be good ones, so buckle people and let’s get into it.

Texans(+10.5) @ Chiefs (ML)

Now I know what you’re thinking and you’re probably right but I’m gonna tempt the parlay gods anyways. The way I see it there’s simply no way that the Chiefs lose but I’m hesitant to say they’ll cover the -8.5. They’ve played in so many close games this season that despite being 15-2 and aiming to three-peat many have questioned how good of a team they really are. Now personally you won’t see me questioning if they can win because Mahomes is just too damn good in postseason. He’s never lost in the Divisional Round going 6-0 as the starter and despite the doubters no matter what they’ve found ways to win this season. As for the Texans I had wrote them off in the Wild Card round and that was clearly a mistake. I still have my doubts about Stroud but that defense should be able to slowdown a Kansas City team who’s starters haven’t played since Christmas. So for those reasons I’m teasing out the Texans spread a little and pairing that with Chiefs moneyline because in the end I trust Mahomes gets it done.

Parlay Texans +10.5 & Chiefs ML (+138)

Commanders (+8.5)(ML) @ Lions

If you came here for advice on how to bet Detroit then you came to the wrong place. Truth be told I was hesitant to even include our spread but had to for those still not brave enough to jump on the Jayden Daniels bandwagon. I will of course acknowledge that the Lions have been pretty good this season enjoying their best season in franchise history. However great moments are born from great opportunity, and that’s what you have here tonight, boys. That’s what Washington has earned here tonight. One game; if we played them ten times, they might win nine. But not this game, not tonight. Tonight, we run with them. Tonight we stay with them, and we shut them down because we can. Tonight, we are the greatest football team in the world. Their time is done. It’s over. I’m sick and tired of hearing about what a great football team the Lions have. Screw ‘em. This is our time. Now let’s go out there and take it!

Commanders +8.5 (-108)

Commanders ML (+380)
