More predictions: Commanders vs Buccaneers Expert Predictions for NFL Wild Card Weekend The No. 5 seeded Vikings (14-3) are taking on the No. 4 seeded Rams (10-7) in a rematch of the teams' Week 8 matchup. The Rams handed the Vikings one of their three losses this season, and were the only non-Detroit Lions team to beat Minnesota.

The final game of wild-card week is also the closest matchup in the odds: The Minnesota Vikings are currently 1-point favorites at the Los Angeles Rams. The game opened with the Vikings almost a field-goal favorite, but the odds have gotten tighter. Our staff are leaning towards the home team.

The Denver Broncos, who earned the right to face the Bills in next week’s Wild Card playoff round, faced a Kansas City Chiefs team in the same position as Buffalo. They clinched the No. 1 seed and barely showed up for a road beatdown. The Broncos cruised to a 38-0 win.
