Lions listed as betting favorites to dethrone Chiefs in playoffs

detroit lions

With the 14-team field for the NFL playoffs set, sportsbooks are tabbing the Detroit Lions as the favorites to go all the way.

Detroit wrapped up a 15-2 regular season by beating the Minnesota Vikings 31-9 on Sunday night, securing the No. 1 seed in the NFC in the process. FanDuel has the Lions winning the Super Bowl at +300, while DraftKings offers the wager at even shorter odds, (+275).

FanDuel and DraftKings have Detroit over the two-time defending champion Chiefs, who are at +350 at both books. Kansas City is looking to become the first team ever to win three straight Super Bowls.

The Baltimore Ravens (+600 on FanDuel, +600 on DraftKings), Buffalo Bills (+600, +650) and Philadelphia Eagles (+700, +750) round out the top five Super Bowl favorites.

Over on FanDuel, the Denver Broncos, Pittsburgh Steelers and Houston Texans are viewed as the biggest longshots to take home a title. They all sit at +6500.

Pittsburgh is alone at +9000 on DraftKings.

Wild-card weekend will come well before the Super Bowl, though, and Baltimore is the heaviest favorite in the first wave of games. The Ravens will host the Steelers on Saturday, and FanDuel and DraftKings both have the spread at 9.5 points in favor of Baltimore.

The Vikings and Los Angeles Rams are expected to play the closest wild-card game. Minnesota is favored by only 2.5 points on both books.
