I am tracking the odds to win all eight divisions for the 2025-26 NFL season. Week 1’s results did not bring any new NFL division favorites, but we are seeing a few division races tightening up, according to the odds. Get the most recent NFL divisional odds for the upcoming season, and track how the odds change throughout the entire season (offseason and regular season).

AFC – East / North / South / West
NFC – East / North / South / West

AFC East Odds

The Buffalo Bills are the heavy favorites to win the AFC East in the 2025-26 season, getting -500 odds to win the division for a sixth-straight year. Buffalo’s odds improved from an average of -308 to an average of -679 after their huge win over the Ravens in Week 1.

Every other team in the AFC East lost in Week 1, with both the Dolphins and Patriots having horrific showings.

The Jets are given the worst odds just one season after being viewed as the team most likely to knock off the Bills – having to restart at quarterback (again) has its consequences. Though, Justin Fields looked better in one game than Aaron Rodgers ever did in a Jets uniform, and it may not take long for the Jets to see themselves jump the Dolphins or Patriots.

The Buffalo Bills had been suffering through the longest drought before winning the division each of the last five years. Prior to their 2020 AFC East championship, they had not won the division since 1995. But none of that matters now that they’re back-to-back-to-back-to-back-to-back AFC East champions.

The New England Patriots have won the AFC East in 11 of the last 16 seasons, and 16 of the last 22. The Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills (last five years) are the teams to take it from the Pats in that timeframe.

Here are some notes on the AFC East odds movement:

• [September 9] After every AFC East team, other than the Bills, lost in Week 1, Buffalo’s odds to win the division improved to as short as -833.
• [May 20] Shortly after the NFL Draft wrapped up, the Patriots, who were widely seen as one of the biggest winners of the draft, saw their AFC East odds continue to improve, surpassing the Dolphins for the second-best in the division.
• [March 4] The Bills opened as the heavy favorites to win the AFC East. The Bills were given -250 odds at opening, and the Dolphins had the second-best at +475. To the surprise of some, the Jets opened with (significantly) worse odds than the Patriots.

Buffalo Bills

Even had the Bills lost to the Ravens, we would still see Josh Allen and company listed as the heavy favorites to win the AFC East. However, they did pull off the comeback and seem to be in firm control of the division after just one week of the 2025-26 season.

If you aren’t already holding a Bills to win the AFC East ticket, I think you’re best to hold off – the odds feel too short to bet it now.

Miami Dolphins

I’m not sure Week 1 could have gone worse for the Dolphins. It’s one thing to let Daniel Jones march up and down the field at will, while putting up 33 points against your defense, but it’s truly head-scratching to see the Dolphins only score 8 points against a Colts defense that was awful last year.

Miami might be in a lot of trouble this season. They’ll have an opportunity to get back on track in Week 2 at home against the Patriots. But I would not be betting this team to do anything successful right now.

New England Patriots

The Patriots were deemed one of the offseason’s biggest winners, but it did not translate to success on the field in Week 1. New England was listed as 2.5-point favorites when they hosted the Raiders in Week 1, but their offense did not show up.

I think things will get better for the Patriots as the season goes on, but they’re not worth betting to win the division right now.

New York Jets

Though the Jets lost their Week 1 matchup against the Steelers, there was a lot to be excited about with the team. The biggest bright spot was Justin Fields’ performance en route to posting 32 points against a Steelers defense that was being hyped as an all-time unit ahead of kickoff.

If there is any desire from Bills bettors, or someone looking to find value in this division race, I think it’s here with the Jets. They’re the only team I see that could give Buffalo some problems, thanks to the “keep-away” style of football they’re capable of playing. I just need to see a lot more from their defense before I am willing to bet them as longshots.

AFC North Odds

The Baltimore Ravens are still odds-on favorites to win the AFC North with -135 odds. They were slightly heavier favorites prior to losing to the Bills in Week 1.

The Bengals are given the second-best odds, but they barely improved after narrowly defeating the Browns in their season-opener. Cleveland is a major longshot to win the division with +6000 odds, in spite of being quite competitive in Week 1.

Three different teams have won the AFC North in the last five seasons. The Cleveland Browns are the odd team out, not having won the division since 1989. The Ravens are the two-time reigning AFC North champs.

Here are some notes on the AFC North odds movement:

• [September 9] The Ravens remained odds-on favorites to win the division despite losing a heartbreaker to Bills in Week 1. Sportsbooks obviously did not feel Cincinnati or Pittsburgh’s Week 1 wins were very impressive.
• [March 12] The Steelers acquired DK Metcalf through a trade with Seattle, and their odds to win the AFC North shortened from +700 to +550 following the move.
• [March 4] The Ravens opened as the heavy favorites to win the AFC North in 2025-26. Cincinnati opened with the second-best odds at +190.

Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens saw their odds to win the AFC North fade a touch after their loss to the Bills, but it’s easy to see why they’re still heavily favored to win the division.

The Derrick Henry – Lamar Jackson duo is going to be incredibly difficult to slow down, and they’ll be able to score enough points to make up for their defensive struggles most weeks. I think there’s value in betting the Ravens to win the division at their current price.

Cincinnati Bengals

It’s hard to tell if the Bengals just suffered through their typical early-season struggles in Week 1 against the Browns, or if Cleveland’s defense is just good. With Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase, among others, playing in the preseason this year, it’s hard for me to believe Week 1’s performance was just rust.

I will not be betting any Bengals futures until I see them put together a good game on both sides of the ball.

Cleveland Browns

As mentioned above, I’m not sure if the Browns defense is good or if the Bengals just didn’t execute in Week 1. Either way, I do not believe the Browns are a team worth betting. It’s only a matter of time before they get Dillon Gabriel, or Shedeur Sanders, under center to see if there’s any potential there.

Pittsburgh Steelers

I didn’t expect much from the Jets defense this season, but I also didn’t foresee Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers offense putting up 34 points against them. Rodgers’ arm looked much more lively than it did last season, and he might be closer to the MVP version of himself than the dreadful version we saw last season – funny what happens when you take the offseason seriously and remain focused on football.

The most concerning part of their Week 1 win was their defense giving up 32 points to a Justin Fields-led offense. That doesn’t inspire much confidence that they’ll be able to slow Lamar Jackson when the time comes.

AFC South Odds

The Texans were seen as pretty heavy favorites, near even-money, prior to Week 1, but their uninspiring showing against the Rams has seen the AFC South division odds really tighten up. Houston is still favored with +185 odds, but the Jaguars are close behind at +200 and the Colts are even +275.

The AFC South has been claimed by the Houston Texans in six of the last ten seasons, including each of the last two years, but three different teams have won it in the last four years. The Colts are suffering through the longest drought, not having won the AFC South since 2014.

Here are some notes on the AFC South odds movement:

• [September 9] In spite of losing in Week 1, the Texans remained the favorites to win the AFC South. Though, their odds faded from +100 to an average of +169, while both the Jaguars and Colts saw their odds improve after wins.
• [March 4] The Texans opened as the favorites to win the AFC South, getting +100 odds. The Jaguars opened with the second-best odds to win the division, just slightly better odds than the Colts.

Houston Texans

The Texans did not manage a single touchdown in their Week 1 matchup with the Rams, who are perceived as a good defense, but not great. Houston’s offensive line struggled mightily, as they allowed CJ Stroud to be pressured on 14 of 34 dropbacks, while only facing blitz on ten of those dropbacks.

I don’t believe the Texans did nearly enough to patch up their offensive line issues from last season, and feel the other teams in their division are more competitive this season. I wouldn’t touch Houston to win the division right now.

Indianapolis Colts

The Colts provided one of the biggest surprises of Week 1, as Daniel Jones looked good as they crushed the Dolphins 33-8 (and took their foot off the gas pretty early). However, I’m not yet ready to believe Jones can lead this offense effectively against a good defense. He will face a great test in Week 2 when they take on the Broncos.

If they manage to pull off the upset, their odds to win the division will likely be too short. But if they lose and remain competitive, Indianapolis might be worth a look.

Jacksonville Jaguars

Bettors face the same dilemma after each Week 1 game – was the winning team good, or was the losing team bad? That dilemma is very present in the Jaguars’ 26-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday. I’m leaning towards a little bit of both being true in this case, and think the Jaguars have a real shot at this division with a healthy Travis Etienne.

Tennessee Titans

Cam Ward’s debut was a bit of a mixed bag to most, but I was thoroughly impressed with the throws he was able to make under extreme pressure from the Broncos defense. If Calvin Ridley hadn’t struggled to catch the ball so much, Ward’s stat line would have looked much nicer and the offense would have likely managed to score at least one touchdown.

While we enjoy watching Ward grow this season, I will not be betting them to win the division, barring some major change.

AFC West Odds

The Chiefs are yet again the favorites to win the AFC West in the 2025-26 season. Kansas City is given -105 odds to win the division, which is a little longer than the odds they’ve been given at this point of the season in previous years. The Broncos have the second-best odds at +310, while the Raiders are longshots at +2200.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Denver Broncos are the only two teams to have claimed the AFC West in the last 15 seasons, with the former having won it each of the last nine seasons.

The Chargers have not won the division since 2009 and you have to go back to 2002 to see the last time the Raiders sat atop the AFC West.

Here are some notes on the AFC West odds movement:

• [September 9] Though the Chiefs lost to the Chargers in Week 1, and the Broncos and Raiders also won, Kansas City remained the favorites to win the AFC West. However, their average odds went from -116 prior to kickoff to +177 afterwards.
• [August 15] The Chargers had the second-best odds to win the AFC West all offseason up to this point, when the Broncos surpassed them for second on the board. It seems money was the reason for this movement.
• [March 4] The Chiefs once again opened with the best odds to win the AFC West. However, their opening odds (-125) were notably longer than they have been in previous seasons. Sportsbooks obviously felt the Chargers and Broncos would provide some legitimate competition to the Chiefs in the AFC West.

Denver Broncos

The Broncos defense looks ready to knock off the Chiefs in the AFC West, but Bo Nix and the offense really struggled for the majority of Week 1. Nix will have to cut the turnovers that kept Tennessee in the game, especially when the Broncos find themselves up against the Chiefs or Chargers.

I think the best value in this division lies with Denver and their +270 odds.

Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs might be in trouble. Not only are they without Rashee Rice (suspension) for the first six games, but Xavier Worthy also left their Week 1 matchup with the Chargers early.

Their defense may not be as dominant as they have been in the past couple seasons, and their offense doesn’t appear to have the weapons around Patrick Mahomes to carry the load right now. They’ll need Mahomes to summon his MVP-form to get through the next couple of games with Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster as the main WR options.

As a bettor, I’m hoping Kansas City loses to the Eagles in Week 2, and then drops their Week 4 matchup with the Ravens as well. I’ll be taking a long look at their division odds should things play out that way.

Las Vegas Raiders

As expected, Pete Carroll seems to have raised the Raiders floor pretty quickly. However, I don’t believe their ceiling is high enough to contend in one of the best divisions in football.

Los Angeles Chargers

The Chargers put up an impressive win over the Chiefs in Week 1, but I think their odds are a little too short to bet right now. Kansas City has shown too much resilience in the past, and few teams are better at finding ways to choke than this franchise.

NFC East Odds

The NFC East has not had a repeat winner since the Philadelphia Eagles won four straight from 2001-2004. Three different teams have won the division in the last five years, with Philadelphia being the reigning NFC East champion. The Giants have not won the NFC East since 2011.

Odds to Win NFC East

The Philadelphia Eagles are the heavy favorites to win the NFC East in 2025-26 with -145 odds. It is the Commanders, not the Cowboys, who are given the second-best odds to win the division this season. Both the Cowboys and Giants are pretty big longshots, according to the odds.

NFC East odds above are updated every 20-30 minutes.

Here are some notes on the NFC East odds movement:

• [March 4] The Eagles opened as the odds-on favorites to win the NFC East with -150 odds. Washington opened with the second-best odds at +225 with the Cowboys being a distant +600.

NFC North Odds

All four teams have won the NFC North in the last seven years, with the Packers having won three division titles in that span. The Lions are the two-time reigning NFC North champs, ending a lengthy drought of not having won the division since 1993.

Odds to Win NFC North

After an historically competitive season last year, the NFC North is once again expected to be closely contested. The Packers are the favorites with +190 odds, while the Bears have the worst odds at +625. Only one other division has a smaller gap between the top and bottom of the board.

NFC North odds above are updated every 20-30 minutes.

Here are some notes on the NFC North odds movement:

• [August 29] The acquisition of Micah Parsons resulted in a change in the favorite in the NFC North. Green Bay’s odds improved from +259 to as short as +165 after landing Parsons, while Detroit’s odds went from +145 to +200.
• [July 22] Minnesota’s odds to win the NFC North reached an average of +324 after being as long as +462 in March. The improved odds are simply the result of money coming in as the public warms up to JJ McCarthy.
• [March 12] After the Vikings lost Sam Darnold to free agency, they saw their odds worsen slightly from +450 to +462, putting them at the bottom of the divisional odds. Chicago, who added some notable offensive linemen during free agency, saw their odds improve from +550 to +400.
• [March 4] The Lions opened as the favorites to win the NFC North with +125 odds. The Bears, who opened with the worst odds, were still given +550 odds, signaling what is expected to be a very competitive division.

NFC South Odds

The Falcons are the only team to never win the NFC South in back-to-back seasons. The Panthers became the first team to do it in 2013 and 2014, also winning it the following year, then the Saints accomplished the feat in 2017 and 2018, followed by the Bucs in 2021 and 2022. Tampa Bay is currently the four-time reigning NFC South champ.

Odds to Win NFC South

The Buccaneers are the favorites to win the NFC South with -105 odds. New Orleans, who looked like world-beaters for the first few weeks of last season, currently have the worst odds to win the division at +1800.

NFC South odds above are updated every 20-30 minutes.

Here are some notes on the NFC South odds movement:

• [June 26] Tampa Bay, who had been floating around even-money to win the NFC South prior to this point, turned into an odds-on favorite. This is the result of New Orleans’ odds continuing to worsen with their QB situation looking shaky at best.
• [March 4] The Buccaneers opened as the favorites to win the NFC South at +115 odds. The Falcons were not far off at +225 odds.

NFC West Odds

The Los Angeles Rams are the reigning NFC West champions. The Rams or 49ers have won the division in seven of the last eight seasons. All four teams have won the division in the last ten years, though, with the Arizona Cardinals riding the longest drought.

Odds to Win NFC West

The San Francisco 49ers are the favorites to win the NFC West with +175 odds. The NFC West odds suggest the division will be a battle between the 49ers and Rams, as per usual, but the Cardinals and Seahawks aren’t seeing very long odds themselves. This is the narrowest gap in odds from top to bottom in the league.

NFC West odds above are updated every 20-30 minutes.

Here are some notes on the NFC West odds movement:

• [August 15] While their odds have worsened slightly from opening, the 49ers entered the season as the favorites to win the division in spite of all their injury concerns at wide receiver.
• [March 12] The combo of trading DK Metcalf and replacing Geno Smith with Sam Darnold resulted in the Seahawks divisional odds slipping from +500 to +700. The Rams, on the other hand, improved from +280 to +195 after re-signing Matthew Stafford and adding Davante Adams to replace Cooper Kupp.
• [March 4] The 49ers opened at even-odds (+100) to win the NFC West, in spite of missing the playoffs last season. The Rams, who won the division last year, opened with the second-best odds at +280.

Who is favored to win each NFL division this season?

The following teams are favored to win their respective NFL division this season: the Buffalo Bills (AFC East), Baltimore Ravens (AFC North), Houston Texans (AFC South), Kansas City Chiefs (AFC West), Philadelphia Eagles (NFC East), Green Bay Packers (NFC North), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (NFC South), and San Francisco 49ers (NFC West.)

How often do divisional odds change during the season?

Divisional odds can change every day during the season. Though, most of the significant changes come right after each week of the regular season is played. Of course, an injury during practice would bring notable movement as well.

What factors influence divisional betting odds?

The two main factors that influence divisional betting odds are: (1) money coming in at sportsbooks, since they want a proportional amount of money on each team; and (2) how teams are performing, or how sportsbooks perceive the fans/bettors believe teams are performing.

Cam a team with a losing record win their division?

Yes, a team with a losing record can win their division. Though, it does not happen very often. The Seattle Seahawks became the first team to win their division with a losing record during the 2010 season, when they won the NFC West with a 7-9 record.
