Best Josh Allen prop bets for Bills vs. Ravens in Divisional Round

The Bills host the Ravens in Buffalo on Sunday of the NFL Divisional Round. Here are some Josh Allen prop bets to consider at DraftKings Sportsbook.

Josh Allen Prop Bets

Here are Allen’s current prop bet odds on DraftKings Sportsbook: o/u 235.5 passing yards, o/u 1.5 passing touchdowns and o/u 47.5 rushing yards. Allen is +100 to score a touchdown, +650 to score 2+ touchdowns and +650 to score the first touchdown of the game.

Josh Allen has played at an MVP level all season. Allen has also proved over the last couple of seasons that he can take his play to another level in the postseason when everything is on the line. He played great in the Wild Card Round where the Bills ended up beating the Broncos in blowout fashion. This Ravens team is a much tougher test for the Bills on the offensive side of the ball, but defensively, the Broncos are one of the best units in the NFL and the Bills dominated them for the most part. The Ravens’ defense improved tremendously throughout the season but it was Denver that finished the season first in the NFL in defensive EPA/play.

This meeting with Baltimore should be a really tight game between two of the NFL’s best teams and top quarterbacks. In those games, Josh Allen typically takes matters into his own hands and tries to win on his own. That is why I am betting on Allen to score a touchdown in this one. Allen has four rushing touchdowns in his past four playoff games and seems to always look to be a hero when high stakes are on the line. Allen had two rushing touchdowns against the Chiefs in the Divisional Round in 2024 and a rushing touchdown against the Bengals in the Divisional Round in 2023. Allen should be forced to play some hero ball in this game and scamper for the end zone.

Quarterbacks have had some success running against the Ravens’ defense this season. Jalen Hurts, Justin Herbert and Dak Prescott all ran for touchdowns against the Ravens, and amazingly, Bo Nix also caught a touchdown against the Ravens. It is a very rare scenario of course, but Josh Allen has actually caught a touchdown in the playoffs before, doing so against Houston in 2020. In these massive games between two elite opponents, offensive coordinators pull out all the stops and that could always include some kind of Philly Special-esque trick play.

Josh Allen is +100 to score a touchdown in this game on DraftKings Sportsbook. Allen scored 12 rushing touchdowns in 16 games in the regular season (not counting the regular season finale where he played one snap), the second-most rushing touchdowns among quarterbacks behind only Jalen Hurts. Allen has taken the ball into his own hands all season and should do so again in this game. Below-freezing temperatures and bad weather are expected in Buffalo on Sunday. In that weather, it gets more difficult to throw the football and should only further encourage Allen to take off running when he gets close to the end zone. That is why a Josh Allen anytime touchdown is my favorite prop bet for the matchup.

Pick: Josh Allen Anytime TD (+100)
