After this past season’s NFL championship game, a 7-10 Broncos team was given quite conservative odds for Super Bowl LVII.
Just over a month ago, SportsBetting gave Denver 20-1 odds to hoist the Lombardi Trophy next season. The odds, which were better than the Bucs, Titans, Chargers, Cardinals, Colts, Patriots, Ravens and Packers, were that low in large part due to the distinct possibility that Aaron Rodgers could be traded to the Broncos.
During the next few weeks, when the Rodgers rumors continued but were never concrete, Denver’s odds escalated to 25-1. And then today’s trade, which sent Russell Wilson to the Broncos for players and a ton of draft capital, significantly impacted the Super Bowl odds.
After the Wilson deal, the Broncos went from 25-1 to 14-1 at sportsbooks.
“This was a 7-10 team last year with essentially a stump at quarterback,” MaximBet head trader Lenny Estrin said. “Now, you’re putting one of the best signal callers in the game on that roster with an incredibly talented defense…the AFC West may now be as good as the NFC West. I don’t think anyone is expecting the Broncos to be Super Bowl champs next year, but with Wilson they are now legit contenders.”
Speaking of division odds, the Broncos went from having the third-worst odds at 5-1 to win the West to now the second-best odds behind Kansas City.
The Broncos are also third on the AFC odds board, vaulting up from the eighth spot.

Los Angeles Chargers +350

Additionally, Russell Wilson’s MVP odds improved, going from 25-1 in Seattle to 15-1 in Denver.
Last year Gonzaga knocked on the door. This season they are about 3-1 favorites to kick it in and win the 2022 NCAA Basketball National Championship. Odds are from Bovada but compare to MyBookie and at Betonline, the home of the opening line as well.

Odds To Win NCAAB Men’s Basketball Championship 2021/2022
Ja Morant put on a show last night, scoring 52 points with a couple of dazzling shots and a chorus of “MVP” chants from the Memphis contingent.
Even Allen Iverson gave Mr. Morant some MVP support on social media, but the number crunchers aren’t ready to hand over the hardware to the league’s most improved player, just yet.
SportsBetting released updated NBA awards odds Tuesday, and Morant went from +1200, or 12-1, to +800 overnight. Just last week, Morant had odds as high as +2500, and he went into the season with +4000 chances.
Joel Embiid remains the odds-on favorite for MVP at -130 while Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo round out the Top 3.
Below are the latest numbers for MVP, Most Improved Player, ROY, DPOY, Sixth Man and Coach of the Year.
For the first time in men’s college basketball history, this past weekend saw the Top 6 teams in the AP Poll all lose on the same day.
Saint Mary’s defeated top-ranked Gonzaga, No. 2 Arizona lost to unranked Colorado, Tennessee toppled No. 3 Auburn, Michigan State beat No. 4 Purdue, fifth-ranked Kansas excusably lost to top-10 Baylor and No. 6 Kentucky was beaten by Arkansas.
Needless to say, the madness of March is already upon us.
SportsBetting has updated its odds for the men’s and women’s NCAA Tournaments, as well as the Wooden Award recipient, where Kentucky’s Oscar Tshiebwe is a heavy favorite.
Additionally, conference tournament odds for the Atlanta Sun, Big South, Horizon, Ohio Valley, Missouri Valley, Patriot, Sun Belt, Summit and West Coast leagues are also below.
It is NBA All-Star weekend. As Joe Duffy is thriving in another winning season, at levels only he has ever achieved in NBA, let’s focus on the so-called sweat barometer in college basketball. It is the ATS standings of which teams have been the best to bet on and against.
Let’s start out with the top teams in the 2021-22 betting season. Though Middle Tennessee State and Jacksonville have the best ATS records in the country, each at 17-5 with MTSU also having a push, neither is in the top 5 in terms of ATS margin. In fact, Howard, despite a losing spread record at 9-10-1, has covered by an average of 4.7 points per game, higher than the two 17-5 squads. Howard has had a wild betting season, twice failing to cover by double-digits, yet four times covering by at least 24.5.

With one more NFL championship in the books, it’s time to look ahead to next season’s Super Bowl odds.
SportsBetting released title odds following Sunday’s game, and the two teams most perceive as the league’s best, now that Tom Brady has retired, top the list.
The Rams, who will be defending their title, come in third with +1000 odds while the Bengals are fourth on the board at +1200.
Two fabled NFC franchises, the Cowboys and Niners, round out the Top 5, respectively.
This odds will be updated throughout the offseason as the quarterbacks carousel (controversies) gets rolling at SportsBetting
The Rams vs. Bengals Super Bowl LVI gets underway after 6:30 ET. The current line at MyBookie has the Rams -4 with a total of 48.5. At Bovada the moneyline is -185, obviously with Los Angeles as the chalk. The openers at Betonline, the home of the opening line saw LA -3.5 and 49.5, laying -190 to win outright.
Currently 58 percent of bets and 74 percent of money is on the Rams to cover. Though the public generally prefers favorites, they often tend to bet underdogs in postseason. However, with “everyone” betting on the Super Bowl, the chalk is generally the public play.
Dichotomous splits are on the total with 66 percent of bets on the over, yet 68 percent of cash on the under. The moneyline sees 72 and 61 percent on the Rams. Sizzling and super talented NFL betting legend Joe Duffy has easily the strongest bet on the side, Stevie Vincent on the total, plus tons of prop bets at OffshoreInsiders.com
James Harden is headed to Philadelphia in exchange for Ben Simmons and a couple of first-round draft picks.
It’s a massive deadline day trade for both squads, and the swap has somewhat shifted the NBA Finals futures.
SportsBetting updated its title odds and Philadelphia has seen its championship chances slashed in half, if you want to gamble on sports or other things.
The 76ers had 14-1 odds before the trade, and now they are down to 7-1.
Brooklyn’s odds barely moved as they went from 4-1 to 5-1.
Golden State was the favorite yesterday and the Warriors remain in the driver’s seat following the trade.
