Parlays:

  • KC Chiefs +4.0 -105

  • Under 44.5. -110

  • The Chiefs have covered four straight games, their longest ATS winning streak since 2021 (six straight).

  • Mahomes is 3-1 outright and 2-2 ATS against Jackson. Three of the four meetings went over the total, with each matchup combining for at least 51 points. The average for the previous four over/unders was 52.4 with none lower than 49.

  • These are two teams with solid defenses. This will likely be a grind it out battle.

DraftKings Parlay:

  • Chiefs +4.0 (-110)

  • Isaiah Pacheco Over 65.5 Rushing Yards (-110)

  • Noah Gray Over 1.5 Receptions (+130)

  • Pacheco will do plenty of work on the ground

  • Noah Gray is becoming a preferred target for Patrick Mahomes in the Chiefs' passing game.

  • Gray has consistently received targets in the playoffs, showing effectiveness against defenses.

  • The Ravens have struggled against tight ends, suggesting potential success for Gray, especially with Travis Kelce drawing attention.

Detroit Lions vs. San Francisco 49ers (Sat. Jan. 28, 6:30pm EST)

Parlays:

  • Lions team total Under 21.5

  • Jared Goff Under 1.5 passing touchdowns

  • San Francisco has held its opponents to 21 points or less in 13 of its 18 games this season, with seven of those results coming in Santa Clara.

  • Detroit is also an under performer outside of their indoor dome.

  • Goff will also likely struggle against this defense

  • The 49ers have been susceptible to the run. Montgomery will likely get over 46.5 rushing yards.

Specials:

You can also head over the Bovada and choose from some packaged special bets if you’re feeling frisky.

Some of our favorites:

  • 18+ touchdowns combined across all games (+1200)
