The NFL's Divisional Round games wrapped up last weekend, leaving four teams with a chance to win Super Bowl LIV on February 2.
The National Football Conference (NFC) championship game will feature a matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and Green Bay Packers and the American Football Conference (AFC) will be between the Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs. The winners from each game will move on to Super Bowl LIV.
The odds for each team to win the Super Bowl are listed below.
Kansas City Chiefs
After overcoming a 24-point deficit to the Houston Texans, the Chiefs have become the favorite to win the Super Bowl in a number of different sportsbooks. Their comeback was led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who threw for 321 total yards and 5 touchdowns. According to Elias Sports Bureau, during their comeback, the Chiefs scored a touchdown on seven straight possessions, setting an NFL postseason record.
DraftKings and Bovada sportsbooks both list the Chiefs at +135 odds while Fanduel gives them +130 odds. Despite the odds, the Chiefs still have to win one more game to make it to the Super Bowl. They will play the Tennessee Titans in the AFC championship game on Sunday, January 19.
San Francisco 49ers
In their first playoff appearance since 2013, the 49ers did not disappoint, winning their NFC divisional matchup against the Minnesota Vikings 27-10. While the 49ers' offense scored 27 points, the defense played a bigger role by holding the Vikings and quarterback Kirk Cousins to only 10 points.
San Fransico is currently the second-favorite to win the Super Bowl with FanDuel giving the team the best odds at +135. DraftKings lists them at +160 and Bovada at +165. They will face the Green Bay Packers in the NFC championship game on Sunday, January 19.
Green Bay Packers
The Packers enter the Super Bowl LVI semi-finals as the third favorite to win the game. Led by quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who will play in the fourth NFC championship game of his career, all three sportsbooks list the team at +650 odds to win the Super Bowl.
Against the Seattle Seahawks, Rodgers threw 243 total yards and 2 touchdowns, leading the Packers to a 28-23 win. Rodgers looks to make his second Super Bowl appearance by defeating 49ers in the NFC championship game on Sunday, January 19.
Tennessee Titans
According to sportsbooks, the Titans are the least likely to win Super Bowl LIV, despite beating the Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots, two teams that were favorited to win the Super Bowl earlier in the season. They are led by running back Derrick Henry who seemed to do it all during the AFC Divisional Round game against the Ravens. Henry rushed for 195 yards on 30 carries, while also throwing for a 3-yard touchdown pass.
Bovada gives the Titans the best odds at +650 while DraftKings lists them at +700 and Fanduel gives them +750 odds. They will travel to Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City to take on the Chiefs in the AFC championship game on Sunday, January 19.
