The Divisional Round produced mixed outcomes.

Josh Allen was unable to secure the game-winning touchdown this time. For the San Francisco 49ers, Jauan Jennings once again fell short of his projected receiving yards against the Seattle Seahawks, repeating the result from two weeks earlier.

Meanwhile, Colby Parkinson did not complete a consecutive hat trick of touchdowns for the column, despite being in promising positions.

Nevertheless, the column remains profitable with a record of 22-26-1 and a running total of +1.4 units, and we move straight on to this week’s NFL championship round player props.

NFL Championship Round Player Props At-A-Glance

This week’s AFC Championship Game kicks off Sunday, and we are backing a pivotal New England Patriots running back to deliver two winning bets on the ground.

The NFC Championship Game features an old favourite of ours once again, backed for profitability while also opposing him in another market.

We typically have three matchups to preview, but this week’s selections apply across two markets in both games.

Patriots’ Rhamondre Stevenson (Anytime Touchdown +125) & Over 53.5 Rushing Yards -110) at BetOnline

New England running back Rhamondre Stevenson has become increasingly influential as the season has progressed, particularly after a challenging start over the first three games.

His confidence has grown, and at 27 years old, he is now the preferred option for running down the clock late in games. 

Looking ahead to this weekend’s AFC Conference matchup, the Patriots have an opportunity to assert themselves from the opening quarter against a Denver Broncos team that will be without star quarterback Bo Nix.

If New England establishes early control, Stevenson’s rushing yards, attempts, and anytime touchdown markets become particularly appealing. While his anytime touchdown price has dipped slightly compared to last week, my approach remains unchanged.

Rhamondre Stevenson is currently priced at +125 to score a touchdown with BetOnline, along with over 53.5 rushing yards at the same trusted sportsbook. I recommend backing both bets as part of your AFC Conference selections this week.

Rams’ Colby Parkinson (Anytime Touchdown +380 / Over 2.5 receptions -105) at Bovada

Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has consistently featured in our weekly column, delivering solid returns from the anytime touchdown market. This weekend, he is on our betting card again.

It is clear his workload with the Rams is slowly increasing; often overlooked by bookmakers, Parkinson remains a favourite target of elite quarterback Matthew Stafford, especially at critical moments.

The Seahawks are formidable opponents against the pass—a trend that has benefitted us before when we opposed Jauan Jennings. We will take the same approach with Parkinson, though it is worth noting he scored a vital touchdown in the first game of the three-match series the Rams won, which makes his generous odds appealing.

If he catches two passes as predicted, one could easily be another key touchdown.

We found Bovada offers the best prices for both markets on our unconventional play for Colby Parkinson.
