NFL Divisional odds: 49ers favored to be lowest-scoring team of weekend; Chiefs favored as highest-scoring club

The lowest-scoring team in the NFL's Wild-Card Weekend was the Arizona Cardinals with just 11 points as they got routed at the Los Angeles Rams. Which will be the lowest-scoring club in the four Divisional Round games this weekend? Caesars Sportsbook oddsmakers favor the San Francisco 49ers at +260. On the flip side, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are +350 favorites to be the highest-scoring team.

For what it's worth, the lowest-scoring team in the Divisional Round last season was Baltimore, which had just three points in a two-touchdown loss in Buffalo. The highest-scoring team was Green Bay with 32 points, which beat the visiting Los Angeles Rams by 14 points.

It was cold but not bitterly so in that Rams-Packers game, but the 49ers will not have that benefit on Saturday night with low temperatures of 2 degrees in Green Bay and wind chills approaching 20 below and winds from 10-15 mph. No surprise, then, that the warm-weather Niners are the favorites to have the fewest points. They had 23 last Sunday in Dallas when weather wasn't a factor. The Niners scored 28 in Green Bay in a close loss in Week 3, but the weather was just slightly different then.

The Cincinnati Bengals are +375 second-favorites to be the lowest-scoring team as they visit the AFC top-seeded Tennessee Titans. Those clubs didn't meet this season. It will be chilly in Nashville on Saturday but nothing crazy and mostly clear skies.

Kansas City is the +1100 long shot along with Buffalo to be the lowest-scoring team, but the Chiefs are slight favorites over the Bills (+375) to be the highest-scoring. They were the two highest-scoring teams on Wild-Card Weekend as Buffalo essentially played offensively perfect in a 47-17 win over New England, while Kansas City hung 42 on Pittsburgh. The Bills visit the Chiefs on Sunday, so we know they can't tie on either prop.

The top-ranked offense remaining in the playoffs is Tampa Bay, which averaged 30.1 ppg in the regular season (Dallas was first at 31.2). The Bucs, who host the Rams on Sunday, are +500 to be the highest-scoring team and +850 to be the lowest scoring.

The last playoff shutout was in January 2016 when the Chiefs won 30-0 in Houston.
