2022-23 NFL Divisional Odds
Like most things betting, NFL Divisional odds manifest on the moneyline as positive or negative numbers. The positive number indicates how much you win when wagering $100 so “+500”, for example, means you win $500 if you wager $100. A negative number indicates how much you need to wager to win $100. For instance, “-300” means you need to stake $300 to win $100.
AFC East
The AFC East has historically been dominated by one team. The New England Patriots ruled this division for 20 seasons, although the Buffalo Bills -especially recently- have also been a powerhouse.
AFC North
This division is like a revolving door when it comes to division champions. Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Cincinnati have all taken turns winning. The Browns have traditionally been doormats, but could turn into a sleeper once in a while.
AFC South
Usually seen as the weakest of the AFC divisions, the AFC South was once the Indianapolis Colts’ division to lose. Still, resurgence from the other three teams has made this one hard to bet on, as their NFL divisional round schedule could make a mess of things.
AFC West
Opposite of the South, the AFC West tends to be one of the stronger AFC divisions. The Kansas City Chiefs have been the cream of the crop, although Denver has also won its fair share of titles in recent seasons.
NFC East
The NFC East is one of the more popular divisions thanks to housing big teams like the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants. Dallas has been the most successful one at winning this division in recent seasons, although the odds could be all over the place.
NFC North
This has traditionally been the Green Bay Packers’ territory. You will find NFL Divisional odds strongly favoring them and if not, it’s likely Minnesota or even Chicago. The poor Detroit Lions are constantly the laughing stock.
NFC South
The NFC South is usually a competitive division and has seen all four teams win the title in the last decade. This division also tends to produce Super Bowl contenders, with Tampa Bay being a recent juggernaut.
NFC West
As far as chaotic divisions go, the NFC West is one of them. All four teams here have won the division since 2015. Between the Seattle Seahawks, Los Angeles Rams, and San Francisco 49ers, a Super Bowl threat constantly emerges from here.
NFL Divisional Betting Example
NFL Divisional odds change as the season progresses. Take for example the Kansas City Chiefs in 2021. This team opened at a whopping -275 to win the division. A $275 wager would have been needed to win $100.
Team | Line |
---|---|
Kansas City Chiefs | -275 |
After struggling for the first part of the season, their odds lengthened to +210 in Week 8. That same $275 wager would have returned $577.50 if bet with these odds.
Pay close attention to how the NFL divisional odds keep changing and you may find a team worth betting on.
