NFL Playoffs 2019 Lines: Divisional Point Spreads, Betting Odds For Second Round
After three road teams won on Wild-Card Weekend, all four home teams are favored in the divisional round of the 2019 NFL playoffs. With the top two seeds in each conference set to make their postseason debuts, the betting lines are bigger than they were in the first round.
Each road team is getting more than four points in the second round. Both NFC teams that got a bye in the wild-card round are laying at least a touchdown.
The New England Patriots are the smallest favorites of the weekend, despite reaching the Super Bowl in three of the last four years. They had a worse regular-season record than the Los Angeles Chargers, who will play a second straight road playoff game in the early afternoon on the east coast.
The defending Super Bowl champs are the biggest underdogs in the divisional round. The Philadelphia Eagles pulled off the biggest upset on Wild-Card Weekend when they beat the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field.
The total of 56.5 in the game between the Indianapolis Colts and Kansas City Chiefs is the highest of this year’s postseason, thus far. The Dallas Cowboys led all eight teams that played in a wild-card game with just 24 points.
Below are the available betting lines for all the 2019 NFL divisional playoff games, including the point spreads and totals. These are the consensus odds from multiple sportsbooks in Las Vegas and online, via OddsShark.
