After a 6-1 start to the season, the Bills have the best odds to make the playoffs in the AFC (Cooper Neill/Getty Images).
Last Year's Field: Denver (1), Patriots (2), Jaguars (3), Steelers (4), Texans (5), Bills (6), Chargers (7)
The Favorite: The Bills have hit their stride … on offense. Josh Allen is second among all NFL quarterbacks with 20 total touchdowns through eight weeks and became the all-time Bills passing touchdown leader in franchise history in Sunday's blowout win over the Ravens. The Bills are averaging 33.3 points per game through Joe Brady’s first seven games as head coach, the fifth-highest scoring average in NFL history through a head coach’s first seven games. However, their 24th-ranked defense will likely need to improve if the Bills want to hoist the Lombardi Trophy in February.
Jags Rise: The Jaguars are 5-2 and sit atop the AFC South with a comfortable lead in the division. With their win over the Colts on Sunday, Jacksonville is now 14-3 over its last 17 regular-season games. This is the Jags' best regular-season record over a 17-game span since the 1999 and 2000 seasons. Their playoff odds have jumped from -700 to -2200.
Ravens In Reverse: The Ravens are in bad shape. They've lost three straight, and in his return from injury on Sunday, Lamar Jackson injured his thumb in the first play from scrimmage. He's now on the IR and his season could be over. With that, Baltimore's playoff odds moved from -230 last week to +600 this week.
49ers: -2800
Bears: -650
Vikings: -400
Lions: -310
Seahawks: -135
Rams: -110
Giants: -105
Packers: +125
Buccaneers: +160
Panthers: +185
Cowboys: +230
Falcons: +270
Commanders: +400
Saints: +575
Eagles: +2000
Cardinals: +2000
The 49ers are 6-1 and are -2800 to make the playoffs (Cooper Neill/Getty Images).
Last Year's Field: Seahawks (1), Bears (2), Eagles (3), Panthers (4), Rams (5), 49ers (6), Packers (7)
Gold Rush: The 49ers had a bye in Week 8, after suffering their first loss of the season against the Falcons in Week 7. At 6-1, they are still atop this oddsboard, but San Francisco continues to deal with injuries, as Christian McCaffrey missed a good portion of the game against Atlanta, though he should be alright going forward. Brock Purdy is playing at an MVP level this season, and the defense might be the most improved unit in the league.
Bears Ballin': Is Chicago the second-best team in the NFC behind San Francisco? Yes, the Bears are second in their own division and, yes, they have division losses to Minnesota and Green Bay. However, Caleb Williams missed the game against the Packers, and the Bears are 4-1 when he starts. In addition, the Bears have wins at Carolina, at Atlanta, vs. New England (the defending AFC champion) and at Seattle (the defending Super Bowl champion). Actually, that win over the Seahawks on Monday night was a 34-17 blowout. The Bears' playoff odds moved from -250 last week to -650 this week.
Seattle Sinking: Are the defending champs in jeopardy of missing the postseason? The Seahawks are 4-4, tied with the Rams for second in the NFC West. After starting the season 3-1, they have lost three of their last four and have games remaining against San Francisco and the Rams (twice) on their schedule. Their odds moved from -250 to -135 over the last week. Just something to keep an eye on.
