Cincinnati Bengals @ Tennessee Titans (-3.5) - Derrick Henry returns. Question of course is Derrick Henry really truly 100% healthy or is he being rushed back. The Bengals have been playing well although the Titans are excellent in bye week situations and may be getting underrated a bit . Still the Titans record against the spread coming off a bye is 8-0.
San Francisco 49ers (+5.5) @ Green Bay Packers - This is probably one of the last teams the Packers wanted to see in a divisional round. The Packers did take care of the 49ers but barely and that was before Deebo was truly unlocked. It's hard to bet against Aaron Rodgers at home but the 49ers could make a game of it. Still the Packers could make life more difficult for Jimmy G who struggled a fare bit in the 2nd half against Dallas. And winning at Lambeau is much harder than winning in Dallas.
Buffalo Bills @ Kansas City Chiefs (-2.5) - This is a rematch of when these two teams played earlier in the season where the Bills dramatically blew out the Chiefs. The Chiefs are a much better team since then although he Bills have actually been playing beter as well. It's tough to go against Mahomes in an all out win scenario although the Bills have been running the ball game not to mention Josh Allen's great play. This game is truly a toss up in my mind although I will side with the Chiefs here only because they have homefield.
Los Angeles Rams @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers(-3) - I think I underestimated the Bucs because they were playing without Leonard Fournette. But it looks like Vaughn is a real deal running back who can plug and play. The Bucs also seem to have enough offensive weapons to weather the storm without Godwin. The Rams played out of their minds last week against the Cardinals although they may have been the worst team there. The Bucs may have a better plan to contain Kupp although if Beckham gets going the Rams could be a tough out. Interestingly enough, Brady will go against Sean McVay for the 1st time since their super bowl matchup and this time McVay will have a better quarterback in Stafford. Actually think this almost a tossup game with the Bucs favored by 3 and 1/2 points.
