How to Get 55-1 Odds on NFL Parlay Picks for Sunday of Wild Card Weekend

How to Get 55-1 Odds on NFL Parlay Picks for Sunday of Wild Card Weekend
  • NFL Wild Card Sunday presents three games and plenty of options for an NFL parlay
  • I have put together my favorite NFL parlay for Sunday of Wild Card Weekend
  • See my NFL parlay picks below, which includes a 55-1 parlay

With multiple games on the first two days of NFL Wild Card Weekend, I have focused my attention on the three games being played Sunday, and put together my favorite NFL parlay. You will find two parlays below: (1) a five-leg parlay with 55-1 odds, and (2) a “safer” three-leg parlay with +144 odds.

I only managed to hit two of the five legs in my longshot parlay from last week, losing a little bit of money betting them as singles as well. I was a combined 19 yards away from hitting both the Rico Dowdle and Joe Flacco legs. Hitting just one of them would have brought in some good profit, and. both would have made for a nice week. I did, however, hit my higher-probability parlay, cashing the +227 payout.

With a shortened list of games for me to hone in on, here are my favorite NFL parlays for Sunday of Wild Card Weekend!

NFL Parlay for Wild Card Round

Parlay Legs Odds
Marvin Mims 50+ Receiving Yards +130
Broncos Over 20.5 Points +145
Packers +3.5 +108
Olamide Zaccheaus 50+ Receiving Yards +160
Terry McLaurin Anytime TD +130
TOTAL 5-LEG PARLAY +5581

My favorite NFL parlay for Sunday of Wild Card Weekend is the five-leg parlay in the table above, and it is best played at bet365 for +5581 odds. If you try to place this parlay anywhere else, the odds will not come close.

If you are trying to put this parlay through a calculator, keep in mind this is two same-game parlays with a single. So, the calculator will spit out odds slightly longer than the above, but you won’t be able to find those odds at any sportsbook.

Marvin Mims 50+ Receiving Yards

The Broncos second-year receiver is finally starting to breakout a little bit. Mims has recorded 50+ receiving yards in each of his last three games, and four of his last five. Not only has he been a deep-threat, recording longs of 51+ yards in three of his last five, but Sean Payton is also scheming ways to put the ball in Mims’ hands. Mims has seen at least five targets in each of his last three games, which includes a season-high eight targets in Week 17.

The Bills defense has given up the ninth-most passing yards in the NFL, and are 17th in net yards allowed per pass attempt. Whether Denver is playing from behind or not, I like Mims to continue being involved.

Broncos Team Total Over 20.5 Points

Denver has gone over 20.5 points in each of their last seven games, and are averaging 32.6 points per game in that stretch. A handful of those defenses weren’t great units, but they did put up 27 points against a tough Chargers defense in Week 16.

The Bills rank 11th in points allowed, but did surrender more than 20.5 points in nine of their 17 games. A decent chunk of the teams who went under that total against Buffalo were bad offenses, though – the Jets, Jaguars, Dolphins without Tua for a half, Titans etc.

Packers +3.5 Alternate Spread

I agree with my SBD formula on the spread in the Packers at Eagles game being too big. My formula likes the Eagles to win, which I wrote about in its NFL Picks for Wild Card Weekend, but thinks it’s going to be less than a FG margin of victory.

It wouldn’t surprise me if the Eagles offense had a little bit of rust with Jalen Hurts taking his first snaps since the early part of their Week 16 game against the Commanders. On top of that, I think coaching becomes an even bigger factor in the playoffs, and I give the clear advantage to Matt LaFleur in that category. Green Bay may not be able to pull off the upset, but I like them to keep this game within three points.

Olamide Zaccheaus 50+ Receiving Yards

Since Noah Brown was lost for the season, Olamide Zaccheaus has stepped into the WR2 role in Washington and he has made the most of the opportunity – outside of dropping that touchdown last week when he was wide open in the endzone. Zaccheaus has recorded 50+ receiving yards in each of his last three games, which includes an 85-yard performance two weeks ago. In that span, he has seen 22 targets, leading the team in that category in two of three games.

I like the Buccaneers to force the Commanders to play with some urgency, and like Zaccheaus to remain a factor in this explosive Washington offense.

Terry McLaurin Anytime TD

I discussed this why I like Terry McLaurin to find the endzone in my Wild Card NFL TD Picks. You can follow that link to read my analysis.

Higher-Probability Wild Card NFL Parlay

Parlay Legs Odds
Josh Allen 25+ Rushing Yards -370
AJ Brown 60+ Receiving Yards -250
Bucky Irving 70+ Rushing Yards -285
TOTAL 3-LEG PARLAY +140

If you don’t want to play a 55-1 parlay on Sunday, or just want to play more than one, the above is a second option that I am calling my higher-probability NFL parlay for Wild Card Weekend. This parlay has three legs and is best played at DraftKings. They’re one of few sportsbooks offering the 25+ rushing milestone for Josh Allen.

Here are some quick-hitters on why I like each leg above:

  • Josh Allen 25+ Rushing Yards: Allen recorded 25+ rushing yards in nine of 16 games this season (his Week 18 “start” isn’t considered in that trend), including five of his last seven. I don’t think simply handing the ball off to James Cook will be overly successful against a tough Broncos defense, leaving Allen to handle a lot of the dirty work himself.
  • AJ Brown 60+ Receiving Yards: Brown surpassed this milestone in ten of 13 games this season, and averages 83 receiving yards per game. When Brown played the Packers in Week 1, he posted 119 yards and was targeted ten times.
  • Bucky Irving 70+ Rushing Yards: Irving has recorded 70+ rushing yards in six of his last eight games, where one of the misses was a game he left early with an injury. The rookie has taken over the Bucs offense and faces a Commanders defense that allows the fifth-most yards per carry in the NFL.

If you’re looking to maximize your potential winnings on NFL parlay picks for Wild Card Weekend, getting 55-1 odds may seem like a daunting task. However, with the right strategy and a bit of luck, it is definitely possible to hit this high payout.

First and foremost, it’s important to understand what parlay betting is. A parlay bet is a single wager that combines multiple individual bets into one. In order to win a parlay bet, all of the individual bets included in the parlay must win. This means that parlay bets have higher payouts than individual bets, but they also come with a higher level of risk.

To get 55-1 odds on NFL parlay picks for Wild Card Weekend, you will need to select a combination of underdog teams that are not favored to win their respective games. This is because the odds for underdog teams are typically higher than those for favored teams. By selecting multiple underdog teams in your parlay bet, you can increase the overall odds of your bet.

When selecting your parlay picks, it’s important to do thorough research on each team’s performance, injuries, and recent form. Look for underdog teams that have a strong chance of pulling off an upset based on these factors. It’s also a good idea to consider the point spread for each game, as this can help you identify potential upsets.

In addition to selecting underdog teams, you may also want to consider including some over/under or prop bets in your parlay. These types of bets can add an extra layer of excitement to your parlay and increase the overall odds of your bet.

Finally, it’s important to remember that parlay betting is inherently risky and there are no guarantees of winning. It’s always a good idea to bet responsibly and only wager what you can afford to lose.

By following these tips and strategies, you can increase your chances of getting 55-1 odds on NFL parlay picks for Wild Card Weekend. Good luck and happy betting!
