Super Bowl Odds 2026: Seahawks & Rams Remain the Championship Favorites
Heading into the divisional round, two NFC West teams sit atop the Super Bowl odds, per FanDuel. The Seahawks are the favorites to win the Super Bowl at +280.
Oddsmakers did not appear to get pushed off the Los Angeles Rams following their narrow escape in Carolina. The Rams are still second in the Super Bowl odds at +320.
Fans may be surprised to learn that the Broncos are fifth in the odds to win the Super Bowl at +750. This despite Denver holding the AFC’s No. 1 seed, but the Broncos have a challenging draw against the Bills.
“I mean this: You’re so excited for those who have never been (able) to experience it,” Payton told The Athletic’s Nick Kosmider when discussing the Super Bowl. “You try to tell them whatever you think it is, it’s a million times different. Like the first five minutes of playing in that game, your feet are floating.”
