The postseason is finally about to be underway this coming weekend, and the road to beating the Super Bowl XLV odds is now on! Things are going to start on Sunday with a duel between the New Orleans Saints and the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle might have won the NFC West this year by taking down the St. Louis Rams 16-6 in the Sunday Night Football finale, but there is absolutely no one giving it a chance of beating the defending champs. You’ll have to search long and hard to find a double digit road favorite in the NFL playoffs, but that’s exactly what has happened in this one, as the Saints are getting the honors by 10.5 points on the opening NFL playoff odds.

Later that day, the New York Jets and Indianapolis Colts will renew ties from the postseason last year, as these two competed in the AFC Championship Game last year. The Jets have a fantastic defense, but they also have some problems right now as well on both sides of the ball. QB Mark Sanchez has a sore shoulder and was held out of action in Week 17 against the Buffalo Bills, but Head Coach Rex Ryan elected to keep a number of his starters on the bench in that meaningless game. The ‘D’ allowed 38 points to the Chicago Bears just two weeks ago, and the team averaged 27.5 PPG allowed over the last month of the season.

Indy knows that this wasn’t the greatest season in the world, but just getting into the playoffs was good enough for QB Peyton Manning. Manning set the record for the most completions in a season this year with 450. He is about as full strength on offense as he is going to be right now, as RB Joseph Addai, RB Dominic Rhodes, WR Reggie Wayne, and WR Pierre Garcon are all going to be in the fold in this one, and they should be ready to pounce at home as three point favorites.

On the other side of the AFC draw, the Baltimore Ravens are going to take on the Kansas City Chiefs. We give KC all the credit in the world for winning the AFC West in the face of the charging San Diego Chargers. QB Matt Cassel was probably shafted from the Pro Bowl this year, though he really didn’t play well in the final week of the season, throwing three picks. The Chiefs also have one of the best rushing attacks in the game, as both RB Jamaal Charles and RB Thomas Jones have the ability to have 100+ yard games against anyone in the league.

Baltimore has one of the best defenses in the league and an offense that is incredibly talented. The Ravens brought in WR Anquan Boldin this year to win games like this one so QB Joe Flacco has a huge target to aim for. This might be one of the last stands for LB Ray Lewis and SS Ed Reed, though. The visitors are favored by three points.

The final NFL playoff betting battle takes us all the way back to Week 1, when the Green Bay Packers knocked off the Philadelphia Eagles. Now, the Eagles can get their revenge.

That week was a tail of two games, as QB Michael Vick did a great job after he came into the lineup and replaced QB Kevin Kolb. Assuming that Vick is healthy, he is going to be going from start to finish in this one, as he looks to do something that QB Donovan McNabb never did: Win a Super Bowl. It all starts with the first step though, and this is going to be a tough test against arguably the best defense in the NFC. Green Bay’s LB Clay Matthews is going to have a beat on Vick for this entire game, which should make this one a great battle. The Eagles are three point home favorites on the opening NFL betting lines in Wild Card weekend.
