The two #1 seeds play today after having Wild Card weekend off.

Welcome to the most exciting weekend of the NFL season: Divisional Playoff weekend. Today, the two number-one seeds are in action after their week off, as the Chiefs host the Texans and the Lions host the Commanders.

Each of the #1 seeds are big favorites in their games — both have spreads of 8.5 points — but the sportsbooks see the two games playing out very differently. Texans-Chiefs has an expected total of 41.5, indicating a low-scoring affair, while Commies-Lions has a 55.5 over/under.
