Redskins CheerleadersThe Washington Redskins and Seattle Seahawks are set to continue the 2013 NFL playoffs, and as a part of our analysis of the Wild Card betting lines, we are taking a look at some of the best NFL props on the board for this crucial clash.

Pierre Garcon Over/Under 63.5 Receiving Yards: Garcon has averaged 5.5 receptions for 79.2 yards per game over the course of his last six, and he is back to being the favorite target for QB Robert Griffin III in the passing game when he is needed. We’re a bit wary over the fact that Garcon is going to be up against these great Seattle corners, but considering the fact that he is the leading receiver on this team and only played in 10 games this year, there is a tremendous reason to think that is the passing game is needed, Garcon will be the man that ends up with the football in his hands when push comes to shove. Pierre Garcon Over 63.5 Receiving Yards (-115)

Will Robert Griffin III Throw an Interception?: We love the assumption here that RG3 is going to get picked off in this game more often than not even though he was only intercepted five times in 15 games for the whole season. Seattle, yes, was one of the best intercepting teams in the league this year, but this is still about what the former Heisman Trophy winner is going to do, not what the defense around him is going to do. RG3 doesn’t put the ball in the air a ton, and as long as the rushing game continues to get some good work in, there is no reason to think that he’ll throw it more than 25 times against two great Seattle corners. Griffin has just one pick since Week 12 against the Dallas Cowboys, and there is no reason to think that he’ll get into trouble in this game more than half the time either. Robert Griffin III To Not Throw an Interception (+120)

Steven Hauschka Over/Under 7.5 Points: It’s a tough prop to back, knowing that kickers can be wildly inconsistent, but this could be the day for Hauschka to shine. He has booted multiple field goals in three of his last four games, and he has tried at least two field goals in six of his eight road games this year. Just in the last four games, Hauschka has scored eight, six, 14, and 16 points, and he really has become a weapon, missing just three times on the whole year. The veteran knows what he is doing, and he is playing behind an offense that has the mentality that it is okay to kick field goals and leave it up to the defense to do the rest. If that remains the case on Sunday, once there is a bit of resistance for the Seattle offense, expect to see Washington force Head Coach Pete Carroll to trot Hauschka on the field at least three times in this game. Steven Hauschka Over 7.5 Points (-130)

Will Golden Tate Score a Touchdown?: We do have to admit that it has been awhile since Tate has scored a touchdown this year, as you have to go all the way back to Week 13 to find the last time that he scored. Still, there’s some great value here on Tate, who scored five of his seven touchdowns this year against teams that made it to the playoffs. We know that this man has some of the strongest hands in the league, and QB Russell Wilson definitely isn’t afraid to put it up there for him, just as we saw in the Hail Mary that ultimately beat the Green Bay Packers way back in Week 3. With seven TDs in 15 games, we have to think that this is at least a 40% proposition that we are getting a great price on. Golden Tate To Score a Touchdown (+160)

#6 Minnesota Vikings @ #3 Green Bay Packers
Vikings vs. Packers Location: Lambeau Field, Green Bay, WI
Vikings vs. Packers Date/Time: Saturday, January 5th, 8:00 p.m. (ET)
Vikings vs. Packers On TV: NBC

Key #1: Green Bay has to find a way to slow down All Day
RB Adrian Peterson has ripped apart a number of foes this year, but the way that he has played against the Packers for two games has been just flat out nuts. Purple Jesus has 409 rushing yards in two games versus his divisional rivals, and he had a number of huge runs, including the one that ultimately set up K Blair Walsh for the game winning field goal in Week 17. There is a question as to whether anyone is able to stop Peterson right now, as he has put together 1,598 yards over the course of his last 10 games, and there really hasn’t been a 10-game stretch like this in recent memory. The Packers allowed 118.5 rushing yards per game, but if you take out the two games that Peterson put up, that average came down to 106.2 yards per game, so it isn’t like this is a terrible unit up front. However, Peterson is the best running back in the game, and the argument could be made that he is the MVP of the entire league this year. If he has another huge game, it’ll be tough for the Packers to ultimately triumph.

Key #2: Aaron Rodgers has to prove that he is the MVP of the league
Minnesota thinks that it has the MVP of the league in Peterson. Green Bay thinks that it has the MVP, too. Granted, we know that Rodgers isn’t going to win the award, but statistically speaking, he is just out of this world. Not only did the former Cal Golden Bear throw for 4,295 yards and 39 TDs, but he also did all of that without a single receiver getting to 1,000 yards. WR James Jones did catch 14 touchdown passes, making him the top scorer amongst receivers this year. The truth of the matter is that it’s all about Rodgers, though. He is the man that is going to make this offense go, and he is going against a pass defense that ranked 24th in the league this year. Rodgers threw for 365 yards and four scores on the road last week, and he had 286 yards at home when these two teams met the first time. If he has another game something in that neck of the woods, the Packers will have a great chance to win. If not, without any semblance of a running game available to him, Rodgers will be in for a long evening.

Key #3: Kicking it to win it
At this level, all of the little things are the ones that separate teams. Three points could go a long way one way or the other for these two teams, and if that’s what the difference turns out to be, the Packers are in some trouble. The normally reliable K Mason Crosby ended up ranking dead last in the league this year in field goal percentage, making just 63.6 percent of his kicks (21-of-33). Granted, he did miss some long ones that he wouldn’t be expected to make all that often, and he has made four kicks in a row after missing two at Soldier Field against the Chicago Bears in Week 15. However, it is clear that the former Colorado Buffalo is going to be outkicked by K Blair Walsh if push comes to shove. Walsh knocked in all 10 of his kicks from 50+ yards this year, and he has the leg to boot it from 60 if he is needed to do so. The rookie went 35-of-38 this year on three-point attempts, and he is clearly the better of these two kickers. P Chris Kluwe also averaged 45.0 yards per punt this year, a solid 1.5 yards per kick better than Green Bay P Tim Masthay. Special teams could be huge in this one from start to finish.
