If Las Vegas odd makers at Westgate Superbook are right, Russell Wilson will be paying dividends on the new contract he signed right away as the Seattle Seahawks at 9-to-2 odds are looked upon as the best bet to raise the Lombardi Trophy at Levi Stadium, the home of their chief rival, the San Francisco 49ers.
If odd makers get it right, this would be the third straight appearance in the Super Bowl for the Seahawks, who are 1-1 in the big game.
The Indianapolis Colts at 7-to-1 are the best bet to come out of the AFC to face the Seahawks in Super Bowl 50. The Colts with Andrew Luck at quarterback made it to the AFC Championship last year before falling to the eventual Super Bowl Champion New England Patriots 45-7.
The loss of wide receiver Jordy Nelson for the year with a torn ACL has soured the Green Bay Packers' odds. Before the injury to Nelson in a preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday, the Packers were a leading pick at 9-to-2. Since then, the Packers have been moved to 6-to-1 odds, good for the second-best bet in the NFL.
The Denver Broncos have seen their Super Bowl odds improve over the last couple of weeks. The Broncos were set with 14-to-1 odds to win Super Bowl 50. Since then, Denver's odds have moved to 8-to-1 for fourth best in the NFL, tied with the Patriots.
Odd makers give the Jacksonville Jaguars and Tennessee Titans the longest odds of ending up Super Bowl champs at 200-to-1.
As the season progresses, wins and losses accumulate, and injuries mount, the odds are sure to change several times before the NFL convenes in Santa Clara, CA on February 7 for the Super Bowl's golden anniversary.
