Best NFL Wild Card Weekend Same Game Parlays Bets

Without further ado, let’s get straight into my same-game parlay picks for Sunday’s Super Wild Card Weekend games.

Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills (-13), Total 43.5

Tua Tagovailoa has officially been ruled out of Sunday’s game, which is unfortunate. With Teddy Bridgewater still not healed from a broken pinkie, it looks like Skylar Thompson will be back under center for the Dolphins. Thompson struggled mightily last week against the Jets, and the Dolphins’ offense barely scored enough points to beat Joe Flacco.

While this won’t be great for entertainment value, I expect this game to serve as a de facto bye week for the Bills. Buffalo will attack early and should be able to sling the ball all over a Miami defense that ranks 25th in pass defense DVOA. There also won’t be any bad weather to worry about on Sunday. I don’t see Miami topping 17 points against Buffalo’s stout defense.

Lastly, Singletary has put up 28 yards and 78 yards receiving in two games against Miami this year. Expect him to be involved in the passing game while the game is still relatively close.

New York Giants at Minnesota Vikings (-3), Total 48

These two teams squared off on Christmas Eve, with the Vikings squeaking out another single-digit victory courtesy of a Greg Joseph 61-yard field goal as time expired. That game was a shootout, with both teams putting up over 350 yards. The Giants actually outgained the Vikings by nearly 100 yards, but two turnovers did them in against the fortunate Vikings.

While I will likely bet the Giants in this game, I’d prefer to wait and see if a +3.5 pops. For now, I’ll take the over in a game pitting two defenses that rank 27th (MIN) and 29th (NYG) in DVOA. Jefferson put up 133 receiving yards in the first contest and Hockenson scored twice. I’m expecting similar success against this subpar Giants secondary.

Baltimore Ravens at Cincinnati Bengals (-8.5), Total 40.5 

This is going to be an ugly conclusion to Wild Card Sunday. Lamar Jackson hasn’t practiced yet and is unlikely to play Sunday night. What’s worse is Tyler Huntley didn’t throw during Wednesday’s open portion of practice. That means Anthony Brown could be back under center for the second straight week against the Bengals.

The spread and total have already been hit hard. So instead of taking a bad number, I’d rather isolate Baltimore’s offense in this same-game parlay. The Ravens were lucky to score 16 points last weekend, and that was partly because Cincinnati laid off the gas once they established a lead. In the postseason, I don’t expect the Bengals to pull back until really late in the contest.

I’d expect the Bengals, who rank 14th in rush defense DVOA, to key on limiting Baltimore’s running game, daring Brown or Huntley to beat them. That means reduced running lanes for Dobbins, who could struggle with less open space to operate.

Finally, the Ravens have a strong secondary that’ll be well prepared and highly motivated, knowing that Baltimore’s defense will have to carry them to a victory. Burrow didn’t come close to clearing this prop in both matchups this season. I don’t expect things to come easy for him Sunday night.
