Every Sunday night, oddsmakers drop the upcoming week’s NFL betting lines, and if you are wondering if the opening spreads look accurate, we’ve got you covered.
Each week, FOX Sports Betting Analysts Geoff Schwartz, Sam Panayotovich and Jason McIntyre will break down the opening numbers in this space and point out if they think the line is too low, too high or just right.
So, without further ado, let’s jump into their analysis for the divisional round of the NFL Playoffs!

The Packers come off a blowout of the Cowboys as 7.5-point underdogs and now go on the road for the fourth time in five weeks to face a rested San Francisco 49ers team.
I thought this number would open at 10 when you consider the fact that Green Bay’s defense was on the field for 89 plays. Now, they have a short week with the Saturday night game.
This line is too low. Hop on the 49ers now.
* Stay tuned for the rest of this week’s games
