2014 NFL Super Bowl Odds

The streets of New Orleans may still be being swept clean after Sunday night’s Super Bowl celebration, but it is already time to look ahead. The odds makers in Las Vegas waste little time when it comes to laying lines, and despite being less than 24 hours removed from Ray Lewis and the Ravens’ second Super Bowl celebration, they have already released the odds for the 2014 Super Bowl. 

The game is to be played on February 2, 2014 in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and if Monday morning’s odds hold up then we should be seeing some usual suspects. The listed lines have the Patriots as 7 to 1 favorites to take home the title in 2014, despite losing in the AFC Championship this season.  According to the odds, the Patriots would be playing the 49ers (8 to 1) in what would be their second straight Super Bowl.  

Super Bowl XLVII MVP, Joe Flacco

The Payton Manning-led Denver Broncos (8 to 1) and the Green Bay Packers (10 to 1) round out the top four favorites.  

It seems that the odds makers don’t have much faith in Philadelphia next season, as they are listed as a 50 to 1 favorite to win the Super Bowl; the same odds as the perennially poor Kansas City Chiefs, St. Louis Rams, and Miami Dolphins. 

After such a disappointing season, teeming with turmoil and under-performance, such long odds are not a surprise.  In fact, considering the questions and uncertainty surrounding the team heading into the offseason, the odds could be reasonably higher.  The Eagles hired a college coach with no NFL experience, and don’t yet know who their starting quarterback will be; not usually the prerequisite sings of a Super Bowl season.  

Things could be worse for the Philadelphia faithful however.  At least the Eagles’ aren’t 150 to 1 favorites like the Jaguars or the Raiders.  Check out the full list of 2014 Super Bowl odds below:
