Odds to win super bowl xli from pinnacle
Leading Online Sportsbook Lists Chargers, Ravens and Bears As Favorites



WILLEMSTAD, CURACAO (January 3, 2007)—After a memorable regular season that came down to the last day to determine the final playoff teams, another exciting NFL post season is on tap as 12 teams remain in the hunt for the Lombardi Trophy. With the NFL playoffs beginning this weekend, leading online sportsbook Pinnacle today announced updated odds to win the Super Bowl as well as the AFC and NFC Championships.



The largest sports betting site on the Internet, Pinnacle currently lists the San Diego Chargers as favorites to hoist the Lombardi Trophy in Miami at 5/2 odds (i.e., win $5 for every $2 bet). Second seed in the AFC, the Baltimore Ravens are currently listed with the second-best odds to win Super Bowl XLI at 9/2, while the NFC’s top seed, the Chicago Bears, are listed at 5/1. PinnacleSports has installed the New England Patriots at 9/1 to win their fourth title in six years, while this year’s Cinderella story, the New Orleans Saints, are 10/1 to win their first NFL Championship. Despite being Super Bowl favorites for much of the year, Indianapolis’ poor defense has caught up with them in recent weeks and the Colts are now just 10/1 to emerge as world champions.



The Philadelphia Eagles overcame a season-ending injury to quarterback Donovan McNabb to win the NFC East and the oddsmakers now list them at 11/1 to win Super Bowl XLI. Reigning NFC champion Seattle are long shots to avenge last year’s Super Bowl loss at 28/1, while the Dallas Cowboys are 34/1 to become the first franchise to capture a sixth NFL title. PinnacleSports currently lists the Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants and New York Jets all with the worst Super Bowl odds at 50/1.



In the race to win the AFC Championship, PinnacleSports lists the Chargers as 5/4 favorites followed closely by the Ravens at 5/2. Division champions New England and Indianapolis are both listed at 6/1 to win the conference title, while the Jets and Chiefs are AFC long shots at 28/1 and 30/1, respectively. The Bears are slight favorites to emerge as NFC champs at 7/4, followed by the New Orleans Saints at 5/2 and Philadelphia Eagles at 11/2. The Seahawks are 11/1 underdogs to repeat as NFC champs, while the Cowboys (12/1) and Giants (20/1) are long shots to represent the conference in the Super Bowl.

I never thought I would ever see the day when the Chargers are even money favorites to win the AFC. It sure been a good year, I am going to the Divisional, and if they win AFC Championship and now the pro bowl. All I am missing now is the Superbowl. Uh oh did I jinx the Chargers.

First off I am not a fan of future bets as it usually works out better to parlay the Moneyline of the team you like up until the end. That being said, if I had 5 units to dabble in futures, these would be my plays:

Baltimore to win Super Bowl @ 9/2: 2.50 units to win 11.25 units

Seattle to win NFC @ 11/1: 1.50 units to win 16.50 units

Giants to win NFC @ 20/1: 1.00 unt to win 20.00 units


Baltimore has the best defense in football (yes even better than Chicago) and defense wins championships. This team won a Suoer Bowl with Trent Dilfer at quarterback, so McNair is more than good enough to get the job done.

In thNFC, both of the top two seeds have holes, so why not take a shot with two longshot teams that run the ball well.
