2024 NFL playoff bracket: Divisional round picks, predictions, best bets for AFC, NFC schedule from top model

SportsLine's model has revealed its NFL playoff bracket 2024 picks and divisional round predictions

The 2024 NFL Divisional Round will take place on Saturday and Sunday and the 2024 NFL playoff bracket has already had several significant surprises. The Packers were seven-point underdogs on the road against the Cowboys last week, but earned a dominant 48-32 win. Now, the Packers are 9.5-point underdogs in the divisional round NFL odds against the 49ers on the road. Green Bay is also listed at +917 to win the NFC and +2625 to win Super Bowl 58 in the latest NFL futures odds.

Which team is the best potential value remaining in the 2024 NFL playoffs and who can you count on to punch their tickets to next week's conference championship games with your NFL predictions? Before making any NFL picks or 2024 NFL bracket predictions for the divisional round, be sure to see what SportsLine's advanced computer model has to say. 

The model, which simulates every NFL game 10,000 times, is up well over $7,000 for $100 players on top-rated NFL picks since its inception. The model enters the 2024 NFL playoffs on an incredible 183-129 run on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season. It is also on a 37-21 roll on top-rated picks since Week 7 of last season and has nailed seven straight top-rated picks entering the 2024 NFL playoffs.    

The model ranked in the top 10 on NFLPickWatch four of the past six years on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 94% of CBS Sports Football Pick'em players four times during that span. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now, it has turned its attention to the 2024 NFL playoffs bracket for the divisional round and locked in NFL picks for every NFL matchup. Head here to see every pick.

Top 2024 NFL playoff predictions

One of the surprising NFL playoff bracket predictions from the model: It is high on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+6.5) and sees them as a sneaky value the rest of the way, even though they barely snuck into the 2024 NFL Playoffs. The Buccaneers were 3-point underdogs at home against the Eagles last week but took advantage of their late-season momentum to capture a dominant 32-9 win.

The Buccaneers have now won six of their last seven games overall and they've won outright the last four times they've been underdogs, a span that includes road wins over the Packers and Falcons. Now they'll take on a Lions squad that will be coming off an emotional high after winning their first postseason game in 32 years and the model sees value in Tampa Bay to win outright (+213), to win the NFC (+950) and to win the Super Bowl (+2650). See which other teams to pick here.
