• Find two of my favorite Rams vs Eagles player props to bet for this game on Jan. 19

The Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs wraps up Sunday which means we need to lay the wood on the books. By the time our heads hit the pillows tonight, we’ll know the NFL’s final four teams. While that’s great and all, that means there is only a few games left in the season. If you’ve spent any time betting the NFL, then you know one thing: we have to get down on every single game going forward, out of respect for the warriors in the arena. Luckily for us, the matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles is perfect. It’s the first game of the day and it’s the one where I know exactly what’s going to happen. (Probably.)

Saquon Barkley Isn’t The Only Running Back In Philadelphia

When we think of running backs in a Philadelphia Eagles uniform, we think of one man, Saquon Barkley. It’s not our fault though. The man is an animal. He jumped over a guy backwards this season. Nuff said.

But even Saquon has respect for another Eagles running back. His name is Kenneth Gainwell.

It’s a small detail, but it’s cool to see Saquon Barkley run all the way from the sideline to celebrate Kenneth Gainwell’s touchdown.

Here’s the thing about Gainwell, he’s barely going to see the field on Sunday. Still, the NFL playoffs are about betting on all of the guys and this is a guy that I think we should get behind. This is a true “who the hell is that guy” move if I’ve ever seen one.

Real ball knowers know that Gainwell has been around Philly for a while. He just kind of lurks in the distance but when his number is called, he delivers. And if you know ball, then you already know Kenneth Gainwell’s number will get called on Sunday.

How do we know that? Because the Eagles are going to pound the rock and muck this game all up. It’s the way. These two teams met back in November and the Eagles just big-boyed their way up and down the field on the ground. The Rams didn’t have an answer then and they don’t have an answer now. I’d expect at least 40 rush attempts from Philly and when that happens, Gainwell is going for more than 15 rushing yards. Feels right.

• The Pick: Kenneth Gainwell 15+ Rushing Yards (+120) at ESPN

Tyler Higbee Is In The Circle Of Trust

Obviously in the playoffs, we need to bet on guys we can trust. It’s been that way since I was a kid and it will be that way long after I’m gone. Lucky for us, the Rams have a tight end named Tyler Higbee that’s been in my personal Circle of Trust for years.

What’s even better is, Higbee isn’t even listed on the injury report this week after getting knocked out of last week’s game.

Here’s the thing, Tyler Higbee is not only in my personal Circle or Trust, but he’s also in Matthew Stafford’s. Some would even argue that being in Stafford’s is more important than being in mine. At the end of the day, who really knows?

What we do know is, Tyler Higbee took forever to get back into action after being hurt all season, but he’s finally back now. He worked his way up to a 41% snap share a couple of weeks ago against Seattle and managed seven targets. Then last week he played 23% of the snaps before leaving with a chest injury. He still managed five receptions on five targets.

I’d expect the Rams to play this thing from behind so at some point Stafford is going to be slinging the rock. The Eagles have been good all season against tight ends but they didn’t get smoked by the Baltimore Ravens tight ends so there is that. My guess is Higbee catches at least four passes on Sunday. Feels right.

• The Pick: Tyler Higbee 4+ Receptions (+120) at DraftKings
