The 2025 NFL playoff bracket has been whittled down to four teams, setting up two conference championship games on Sunday. No. 2 seed Philadelphia hosts No. 6 seed Washington in the 2025 NFC Championship Games at 3 p.m. ET, with the Eagles favored by six points in the latest NFL odds and an over-under of 47. That game is followed by the 2025 AFC Championship between No. 1 seed Kansas City (-2, 48.5) and No. 2 seed Buffalo at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS and Paramount+. Bills safety Taylor Rapp has been ruled out with hip and back injuries. DraftKings is offering a special King of the End Zone promotion for its customers on Sunday, giving bettors a chance to win a share of a $2 million prize pool for anyone who correctly picks the player that scores the longest touchdown of the day. Which players should you target with your conference championship NFL bets?

Any customer who opts in is issued one single-use qualifying bet token, with a required minimum bet of $5 on any NFL TD scorer market. The token can be used on a single player, two players in a traditional parlay (two games) or up to three players in a same-game parlay (one game). Anyone who correctly chooses the longest touchdown scorer on Sunday will split the share of bonus bets. Before you make any Sunday King of the End Zone bets on DraftKings, be sure to check out the DraftKings King of the End Zone picks from NFL expert R.J. White.

White, a Fantasy and gambling editor for CBS Sports, consistently crushes against-the-spread picks and has gone 643-543-34 on his ATS picks from 2017-23, which returned more than $4,600 to $100 players. He also went 101-84-4 (+1366) on all NFL spread picks last season and is on an 18-6 roll (+1143) on his NFL prop picks this season. Anyone who has followed him could be way up. He already nailed Ladd McConkey as the longest TD scorer on Jan. 11 during the wild-card round and Saquon Barkley last Sunday during the Divisional Round. 

Now, White has revealed his DraftKings King of the End Zone betting strategy for Sunday’s AFC and NFC Championship Games.

Top DraftKings King of the End Zone picks on Sunday

One part of White’s King of the End Zone strategy that we can reveal: He is staying away from Eagles wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. Brown and Smith combined to score 15 touchdowns during the regular season, but neither of them has scored in two playoff games. Brown has just three total receptions on 10 targets, while Smith is averaging less than 10 yards per catch. 

The Eagles only have two receiving touchdowns this postseason, as they have been able to rely heavily on their rushing attack. Running back Saquon Barkley has racked up 324 rushing yards and two scores, averaging more than six yards per carry. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has also gone over 100 rushing yards with a score, leaving Brown and Smith with limited opportunities. 

Philadelphia will be focused on controlling the tempo again this weekend, as the Eagles do not want to give Washington’s explosive offense a chance to turn the game into a shootout. White is not including Brown or Smith in his conference championship selections on Sunday, but you can see who White’s picks are here.
