Patrick Daugherty (@RotoPat), Denny Carter and Kyle Dvorchak (@kyletweetshere) preview the slate of the year in this weekend's Divisional Round, beginning with Texans/Chiefs. Does Houston have a chance, and is Kansas City ready to play its best football? With Bills/Ravens they ponder if it will be a shootout or a slog. No such pondering is necessary with guaranteed shootout Washington/Detroit, so the guys focus in on the best DFS plays, including in Detroit's backfield. For Rams/Eagles, Pat attempts to make the L.A. upset case as the guys debate Sean McVay's place in the current coaching pantheon. All along the way they focus on DFS plays and teams' potential avenues to victory.
