After an atrocious 1-5 start to the Sean Payton era in Denver, the Broncos have battled back to win three in a row to find themselves back in the chase for a playoff spot.
What about Super Bowl talk? The saying goes “any given Sunday,” but sportsbooks aren’t fully bullish on Denver’s odds to bring home the Lombardi Trophy this year.
DraftKings Sportsbook has the most optimistic odds at +12,000 — meaning a $100 bet would win $12,000 — for the Broncos to win Super Bowl LVIII. Denver has the 18th-best odds among the 30 NFL teams.
Caesars Sportsbook is next among the five betting sites surveyed at +12,500, followed by BetMGM (+15,000), Fanduel Sportsbook (+17,000) and SI Sportsbook (+25,000). Denver is ranked between 18th and 27th among the sites.
It’s a big drop-off from the team’s initial odds prior to the start of the season, ranging from +3,300 to +4,500.
The defending champion Chiefs (+450 to +500) are either tied or have sole possession as the favorites, followed by the 49ers (+480 to +500) and the Eagles (+500 to +575).
The Broncos will look to extend their winning streak when they host the Vikings (6-4) on Sunday Night Football. Kick-off is scheduled for 6:20 p.m. MT.
