The Seahawks have the best odds (+280, FanDuel Sportsbook) to win it all, beating out the divisional rival Rams (+325), who they could see in the NFC Championship game.
The Patriots and Bills are the favorites in the AFC with both teams sitting at +600 to win the Super Bowl.
The injury-riddled 49ers (+2200) have the worst odds of the remaining teams despite their impressive upset over the Eagles on Sunday.
Underdogs clean up
If you bet on the ‘dogs during the Wild Card Round, congrats.
Underdogs went 4-2 against the spread and 3-3 outright over the weekend.
As a 5.5-point underdog, San Francisco was the biggest shocker of the weekend.
The Panthers nearly pulled off one of the biggest upsets in playoff history before losing a thriller to the Rams, who were 10.5-point favorites in the largest spread of the weekend.
NFL Draft check in
It appears we know who the No. 1 overall pick is going to be in April.
After getting the Hoosiers to the national championship game last week, Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza is now a massive -1000 favorite to go No. 1 in the draft.
Betting on the NFL?
The Raiders, who are likely to take a quarterback after the Geno Smith experiment went terribly this season, have the top pick, barring a trade.
The Jets, Cardinals and Browns, who are also selecting near the top of the draft, could also be in the market for a signal-caller.
