Divisional Round Saturday Slate and Single-Game NFL DFS Snapshot: Top FanDuel & DraftKings Plays

Welcome to the two-game Saturday slate snapshot for the Divisional Round. We have an exciting pair of matchups to continue the playoffs, beginning with the Houston Texans traveling to face the top-seeded Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs are aiming for their third consecutive Super Bowl appearance, and are well-rested after securing the AFC's No. 1 seed and first-round bye with a 15-2 record. The Texans advanced by defeating the Los Angeles Chargers 32-12 in the Wild Card round but remain without several key contributors lost to season-ending injuries. Yet we should never count them out of games when they've still got the triumvirate of C.J. Stroud, Nico Collins, and running back Joe Mixon.

The second game features the Washington Commanders visiting the Detroit Lions at Ford Field. The Lions earned the NFC's No. 1 seed, also with a 15-2 record, and are welcoming the return of thier potent running back combo, with David Montgomery expected back and ready to compliment superstar Jahmyr Gibbs and the formiddable Detroit offense.. Meanwhile, Washington's rookie quarterback, Jayden Daniels, has shown incredible playmaking ability all season, and his duel-threat abilities make this matchup much more intriguing than the spread implies.

Let’s break this slate down from both a multi-game and single-game DFS perspective.
