The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every NFL game 10,000 times and is up over $7,000 for $100 players on its top-rated NFL picks since its inception four-plus years ago.

It has nailed its recent top-rated NFL picks, entering the divisional round in the 2020 NFL playoffs on a strong 34-22 run that dates back to last season. It's also on an incredible 96-65 roll on top-rated NFL picks that dates back to the 2017 season, Last season, the model also ranked in the Top 10 on NFLPickWatch for the third year in a row on straight-up NFL picks and beat more than 96 percent of CBS Sports office pool players. Anyone who has followed it is WAY UP.

Now, the model has simulated every snap of the divisional round in the 2020 NFL Playoffs and the results are in. 

We can tell you one of the model's divisional round picks is that the Seahawks (+4) stay within the spread against the Packers. Both teams have excelled defensively, with the Seahawks allowing just nine points last week and the Packers giving up just 14.2 over their last five games. Two strong defenses should keep Sunday's game close and not allow Green Bay to jump out to a sizable lead. The Seahawks cover in over half of simulations, while the over (45.5) also has plenty of value.

The model has also made the call on who wins and covers every other NFL game this week, and is calling for a top Super Bowl contender to go down hard. You ABSOLUTELY need to see its NFL picks for every single game before locking in your own.
