We are approaching the climax of the 2025-26 NFL season.
This weekend sees the start of the Divisional Round, with eight teams still competing for glory.
The Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos are back after their brilliance in the regular season, which saw them given a bye for the Wild Card Round.
So, get ready for more American football action of the highest quality, and we have picked out four online betting tips for this weekend based on NetBet’s latest NFL odds.
Let’s begin…
*All odds are subject to change
Denver Broncos vs Buffalo Bills: Anytime touchdown scorer – Josh Allen @ 1.90
Star quarterback Allen is the definition of a big-game player, so he gets the nod as our sole player prop bet for the Divisional Round. The Bills’ main man has tallied 16 touchdowns in 18 appearances this season after recording two more in the tense 24-27 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This is the closest match in terms of pre-match odds, with the Broncos at 1.83 and the Bills priced at 1.87. As such, looking at markets which are not solely reliant on the final result could be the way to go here, and Allen is our pick!
Seattle Seahawks vs San Francisco 49ers: Total points – Under 45.5 @ 1.86
The Seahawks are well rested, and should be far too strong for the 49ers, who are plagued with injuries right now. However, while we expect Seattle to record yet another home win, the points total may follow a similar pattern to previous games. The Seahawks and 49ers battled on January 4, with Seattle winning 3-13. Under 45.5 points have been scored in three of the Seahawks’ last four games, which is also the case in each of the 49ers’ previous two NFL contests, following the dogged 19-23 Wild Card win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
Houston Texans to beat the New England Patriots @ 2.27
We are siding with the pre-match underdog here, as the Texans are arguably the hottest team in the NFL right now. After an indifferent start to the campaign, DeMeco Ryans’ side have reeled off 10 straight wins, comfortably beating the Pittsburgh Steelers 6-30 in the Wild Card Round. With an elite defence and a more-than-capable offense, the Texans undoubtedly possess the quality and form to upset the odds and dump the Patriots out.
Chicago Bears vs Los Angeles Rams: Points Handicap | Rams -4.5 @ 1.91
The Rams’ prolific offense (the best in 2025 with 518 points scored) should be far too strong for a Bears side which has struggled from a defensive standpoint throughout the campaign. Even with home advantage, we cannot see Chicago clinching the win here, with the Rams’ offensive power looking Super Bowl worthy. The LA outfit have won three of the last four games against the Bears, all of those victories secured by a margin greater than five points, hence why we are dipping into the handicap market.
