Leg 1: Buccaneers Moneyline (-162)
The Buccaneers are well-positioned to win this Wild Card clash against the Commanders, and the moneyline at -162 offers solid value. Tampa Bay boasts a balanced offense, with Baker Mayfield leading a passing attack that now features a healthy Mike Evans and the emergence of Jalen McMillan, who has added a dynamic element late in the season. On the ground, Bucky Irving provides a tough, physical rushing presence that complements their air attack. While Jayden Daniels has shown flashes of brilliance for Washington, rookie quarterbacks often face challenges in the postseason, where the game slows down, and defenses adjust. With home-field advantage and a well-rounded roster, Tampa Bay has the edge to control this game and advance in the playoffs. The Bucs’ ability to execute both through the air and on the ground makes them the safer bet in this matchup.

Leg 2: Over 44.5 Alternate Total (-225)
Both teams have leaned heavily toward the over throughout the regular season, making this alternate total of 44.5 (-225) a safe and strategic play for this leg. Tampa Bay has hit the over in 12 of 17 games, while Washington isn’t far behind at 11-6 to the over. While the standard total of 50.5 is a bit lofty, both offenses are dynamic enough to push this game well beyond the lower alternate line. With clear skies and temperatures around 60 degrees at kickoff, conditions are ideal for an offensive showcase. Opting for the safer total ensures a strong foundation for your parlay.

Leg 3: Jayden Daniels Over 51.5 Rushing Yards (-113)
In the season opener, Jayden Daniels showcased his rushing ability, racking up 88 yards against this Buccaneers defense by scrambling out of the pocket and catching them off guard. The rookie quarterback has been a consistent threat on the ground, clearing 51.5 rushing yards in five of his last six full games. This matchup has already proven to be favorable for Daniels’ mobility, and with Washington looking for any edge to stay competitive, his rushing ability will be a key factor.
Leg 4: Baker Mayfield 225+ Passing Yards (-188)
We’re backing Baker Mayfield to hit 225+ passing yards (-188) rather than taking the standard line. Mayfield shredded Washington’s secondary in Week 1, throwing for 289 yards and four touchdowns on a precise 24-of-30 passing performance. He’s been a consistent threat against weaker defenses, eclipsing 225 yards in six of his last eight games. With perfect weather conditions setting the stage for a high-scoring affair, Mayfield should comfortably hit this alternate mark as he leads the Buccaneers offense. This play provides a solid foundation for your parlay without taking on unnecessary risk.
