Super Bowl Odds: Tom Brady, Patriots Favored To Win Fifth Championship
Good news, New England Patriots fans. Las Vegas seems to like coach Bill Belichick’s offseason moves.
Bovada released its updated Super Bowl futures betting lines, and the Patriots broke a tie with the Seattle Seahawks and Carolina Panthers to steal the top spot on the odds list.
New England Patriots: 15-2
Carolina Panthers: 10-1
Denver Broncos: 10-1
Green Bay Packers: 10-1
Pittsburgh Steelers: 10-1
Seattle Seahawks: 10-1
Arizona Cardinals: 16-1
Dallas Cowboys: 20-1
Houston Texans: 20-1
Cincinnati Bengals: 22-1
The list features no true surprises, save for possibly the defending champion Broncos, who lost both their quarterbacks and defensive end Malik Jackson. The biggest jump in the top 10 goes to the Texans, who managed to steal Brock Osweiler from Denver. What a difference a quarterback makes.
Of course, the odds came out one day before New England traded Pro Bowl defensive end Chandler Jones to the Arizona Cardinals. But considering the trade seems to be a win-win for both squads, we can’t see it changing things too much.
