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 as short as -175 odds to win the division for a sixth-straight year. Buffalo’s odds are much longer than they were in late-September, though.

The Patriots currently hold the division-lead, but they’re still seen as underdogs at sportsbooks. New England has significantly closed the gap, though.

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

• Consensus Division Odds: -169

While sportsbooks were basically ready to call the AFC East race after the first four weeks of the season, the Bills stumbled in October, recording losses to the Patriots and Falcons. While they remain the favorite to win the division, Buffalo has some legitimate competition for the division crown. However, I do think there’s value in betting them at their current price.

Miami Dolphins

• Consensus Division Odds: +46000

The Dolphins season is off to a horrific start. They were absolutely dominated in Weeks 1 and 2, and do not appear to be turning any corners, especially now without Tyreek Hill for the rest of the season. Miami is not winning this division.

New England Patriots

• Consensus Division Odds: +132

The Patriots currently sit in the top spot in the AFC East, thanks to their win over the Bills in Week 5 giving them the tiebreaker for the moment. The two teams will still meet again this season, but New England is very relevant in the division at the moment. Their odds were as long as +1643 in late-September, but have improved to +132 now.

New York Jets

• Consensus Division Odds: +46000

After a promising Week 1 showing from the Jets’ offense, they have largely disappeared. On top of that, their defense looks like it will need a lot of work. The Jets are more likely to start selling off expiring contracts than they are competing for a division title – and apparently some of their cornerstone players too.

AFC North Odds

The Baltimore Ravens are the favorites to win the AFC North after Week 9. The Steelers sit at 5-3 atop the standings, but the Ravens are only two games back now and are getting healthy. Baltimore is getting -143 odds to win the division as the favorites.

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:

• [October 28] A dominant Ravens win in Week 8, without Lamar Jackson, paired with a Steelers loss to the Packers resulted in the Ravens taking back over as the favorites to win the AFC North.
• [October 14] Following Week 6, the Ravens were no longer the favorites to win the AFC North for the first time this season. Their 1-5 record at the time allowed the Steelers to take over as the division favorites.
• [September 16] Joe Burrow’s turf toe injury, which was expected to keep him out for about three months, saw Cincinnati’s AFC North odds plummet from consensus odds of +255 to +679.
• [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

• Consensus Division Odds: -143

The Ravens season was off to such a disappointing start, and a large part of it was injuries. Lamar Jackson missed a little over three games, and their defense has been without many of their stars for varying parts of the season.

However, plugging Tyler Huntley in under center in Week 8 and getting a couple of their defensive players back from injury resulted in a classic Ravens performance against the Bears, as they proved their season isn’t over and reclaimed the title of division favorites. Jackson returned to action in Week 9 and helped them beat up on the Dolphins on TNF.

The Ravens are back and I believe are a good bet to win the division at their current price.

Cincinnati Bengals

• Consensus Division Odds: +2040

Sportsbooks believed Cincinnati’s season was over after losing Joe Burrow in Week 2. Joe Flacco temporarily provided a glimpse of hope after beating the Steelers in Week 7, but back-to-back losses to the Jets and Bears has seen them exit the contender conversation, according to sportsbooks.

Cleveland Browns

• Consensus Division Odds: +6120

The Browns are not winning the AFC North this season. We have seen them turn their offense over to rookie Dillon Gabriel, who has been up-and-down in his starts. We might see Shedeur Sanders get some snaps before the end of the season as well.

Pittsburgh Steelers

• Consensus Division Odds: +139

Aaron Rodgers has shown some flashes of what he’s still capable of in leading the Steelers to a 5-3 start, and their defense has also flashed some of their potential dominance, but have been very inconsistent.

Pittsburgh took over as the favorite to win the AFC North after Week 6 but gave it away after losing to the Packers in Week 8. They are fresh off an impressive win over the Colts, in what was their best defensive performance of the year. But it’s hard to know which team we will see each week.

AFC South Odds

The Colts became the favorites to win the AFC South after Week 2, and have remained the favorites since then. Jacksonville is only 1.5 games back but they have not been nearly as impressive as Indianapolis to this point.

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 16] Houston’s 0-2 start to the season opened the door for the Colts to become the new favorites to win the AFC South.
• [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

• Consensus Division Odds: +1800

The Texans continue to struggle protecting CJ Stroud and cannot run the ball with much success either. Their defense does not appear to be as good as they were last season, and the rest of the division around them has gotten better.

I expected we would see Houston make a move for an offensive lineman (or multiple) ahead of the trade deadline, but they did nothing. I don’t think they’re serious about contending for the AFC South.

Indianapolis Colts

• Consensus Division Odds: -307

The Colts are one of the biggest surprises of the season so far. They have won the games they were supposed to (against Miami, Tennesee, and Arizona), upset the Broncos & Chargers, and probably should have beaten the Rams in Week 4 – but ultimately suffered their first loss of the season. Their Week 9 slip-up against the Steelers may have just been that, or could potentially be the unwinding of Daniel Jones.

Prior to Week 9, Jones was looking better than we’ve ever seen him in Shane Steichen’s offense. The Colts’ defense appears good enough, especially after acquiring Sauce Gardner. I locked in the Colts to win the AFC South at +140 on ESPN Bet after Week 2. I do not think there is value in betting them anymore, though.

Jacksonville Jaguars

• Consensus Division Odds: +293

The Jaguars certainly appear to be improved from last season, but I think they’re still in for an up-and-down year. They should not have lost to the Bengals with Joe Burrow going down so early. Their defense is keeping them in games, but the offense has struggled to put points on the board at times.

Jacksonville appears to be the biggest threat to Indianapolis atop the standings, but it’s not appearing to be a serious threat.

Tennessee Titans

• Consensus Division Odds: +41000

The Titans are not winning the division this season. It will be fun watching Cam Ward (hopefully) grow, but that’s what this season is all about. He’ll now attempt to do it without Brian Callahan, who was fired after Week 6.

AFC West Odds

The Denver Broncos are currently favored to win the AFC West. They took over as the new favorites following Week 9, and it is the first time we have seen Sean Payton’s squad listed as the favorites.

The Chiefs regained the status of favorites to win the AFC West following a very convincing Week 6 win over the Lions. However, the Week 9 loss to the Bills put them two games behind the Broncos. Kansas City will have an opportunity to correct that in Week 11 when they take on Denver (following KC’s bye).

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:

• [November 4] A Chiefs loss to the Bills in Week 9 saw them get bumped in the odds by the Denver Broncos, who took over as the favorites.
• [October 14] Kansas City reclaimed the best odds to win the division following an inspiring Week 6 win over the Lions, as well as the Chargers continuing to struggle.
• [September 16] The Chargers took over as the AFC West favorites after the Chiefs lost in Week 2, marking an 0-2 start for the reigning AFC West champs.
• [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

• Consensus Division Odds: +125

While the Broncos are the new favorites to win the AFC West, their 7-2 record suggests a more impressive team than I have seen so far. They have needed some miraculous fourth-quarter comebacks along the way, have not recorded very convincing wins against bad teams, and have lost games they should not have.

I do not like the Broncos to win the division at this price, as I think they’re going to be in tough for the next handful of games without Patrick Surtain II. Bo Nix has also yet to put together a really good full-game performance, and I’m not sure he’s going to do that.

Kansas City Chiefs

• Consensus Division Odds: +134

A 1-2 start saw the Chiefs lose the title of favorites to win the division. However, both losses were competitive and the Chiefs have looked much better since getting Xavier Worthy back in Week 4. They also got Rashee Rice back in Week 7, and I believe they are about to go on a run.

Betslip #1759279883695-5a21-702

I locked them in at +155 to win the division after Week 4, and think there is still value at their current price.

Their Week 9 loss to the Bills wasn’t ideal, but that’s a Super Bowl contender they played while on the road. It was a close game and I think Kansas City will rebound coming out of their bye.

Las Vegas Raiders

• Consensus Division Odds: +41000

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

• Consensus Division Odds: +398

The Chargers put up an impressive win over the Chiefs in Week 1, followed it with a good win in Las Vegas, which resulted in them becoming the new favorites to win the division, and then beat the Broncos in Week 3 – this was a massive start for LA. However, they stumbled after that, losing some games to teams a contender should not be losing to, and they are now trying to replace both of their starting offensive tackles.

NFC East Odds

The Philadelphia Eagles are the favorites to win the NFC East in 2025-26 with -2000 odds. Sportsbooks are essentially wrapping this division up now.

The Cowboys are crumbling with two bad losses in a row, while the Commanders will likely be without Jayden Daniels for the whole season (or at least most of it).

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.

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.

Dallas Cowboys

• Consensus Division Odds: +2220

The Cowboys seemingly cannot make up their mind about whether they’re contenders or not. They pushed the Eagles in Week 1 in a close loss and tied the Packers in Week 4, which are two of the NFC’s top teams. But then they barely beat the Russell Wilson-led Giants, were blown out by the Bears, and lost to the Panthers.

A win over the Commanders in Week 7 at least helped establish them as the potential second-best team in the division, but they followed it up by being blown out by the Broncos and losing to the Cardinals. They’re not catching the Eagles.

New York Giants

• Consensus Division Odds: +28000

The Jaxson Dart era is officially underway, and he has been expectedly a little up-and-down. This season is simply about building up Dart and getting him some valuable experience to attempt to move into true contention next season.

Philadelphia Eagles

• Consensus Division Odds: -2463

The Eagles were not winning pretty through the first four weeks when they were 4-0, and then they dropped two games they should have won. The transition to Kevin Patullo has been rocky, and their defense is not as dominant as they were last season.

Philadelphia has not appeared to be anywhere near the dominant team we saw last season. It just doesn’t look like anyone else in the division is good enough to take the NFC East away from them.

Washington Commanders

• Consensus Division Odds: +3300

The Commanders have dealt with a fair number of injuries to major contributors, including but not limited to Jayden Daniels, Terry McLaurin, and Austin Ekeler. The latest injury to Daniels is one that I believe has sunk their hopes of winning the NFC East, and probably ends their season in general. Marcus Mariota is not winning many games for them.

NFC North Odds

The Packers world came crashing down in Week 3, when they were upset by the Browns, and then again when they tied the Cowboys in Week 4. However, Green Bay is still slightly favored to win the NFC North with odds as short as +100.

The Lions have bounced back in a big way after losing to the Packers in Week 1, but still do not appear to be as dominant as they were last season. They are now a very close second in the division odds, sporting +130 consensus 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.

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.

Chicago Bears

• Consensus Division Odds: +970

Expectations of Ben Johnson completely turning this Bears team around were obviously a little lofty. After a brutal first couple of weeks, though, things have looked a little better for Chicago. It seems they have solved their ground game while on bye, as their offense has enjoyed a lot of success running the ball in the games since their bye.

If the Bears can continue building, they may be pressing for a wild card spot, but I don’t think they’re ready to contend for the division.

Detroit Lions

• Consensus Division Odds: +130

Everyone should have expected the Lions to suffer through some early speed bumps after losing both coordinators in the offseason. They’re at least winning the games we expect them to, but looked pretty far away from beating the Packers and Chiefs when they saw those contenders. There is still time to resolve the issues, especially with Green Bay stumbling a bit.

Green Bay Packers

• Consensus Division Odds: +106

Green Bay looked extremely impressive through two weeks of the season. But Cleveland really humbled them in Week 3, their tie against the Cowboys was pretty shocking, and their loss to the Panthers is rather concerning.

The Packers need to sort out their running game in order to get back to recording those impressive wins.

Minnesota Vikings

• Consensus Division Odds: +1460

The Vikings defense has remained pretty strong, but they need some better play from the QB position and their offensive line. JJ McCarthy played his best game as a pro, in my opinion, in his return from injury, leading the Vikings to a Week 9 win over the Lions. We just need to see more consistency from him.

NFC South Odds

The Buccaneers are the favorites to win the NFC South with -250 odds. Neither Carolina or Atlanta appear capable of truly pushing Tampa Bay for the division crown.

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.

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.

Atlanta Falcons

• Consensus Division Odds: +2520

Atlanta’s defense has been pretty good at times this season, but they have had incredibly inconsistent play from their QB position. After an impressive win over the Bills a month ago, the Falcons have lost three straight, which includes a Week 8 blowout at the hands of the lowly Dolphins. I don’t trust Michael Penix to get it done.

Carolina Panthers

• Consensus Division Odds: +655

Rico Dowdle has apparently been the spark Carolina’s offense needed to take pressure off Bryce Young, who still hasn’t shown me enough to prove he is a franchise QB. But I don’t think the Panthers can hang with the Bucs in the division.

New Orleans Saints

• Consensus Division Odds: +41000

The Saints look bad and I don’t think things will get much better. Tyler Shough failing to beat out Spencer Rattler for the starting job has to be a little concerning after what we’ve seen from Rattler so far. But Shough now has a chance to fix that as he takes over under center.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

• Consensus Division Odds: -698

It appears the Buccaneers offense has found their footing after a couple underwhelming performances to start the season, and they’re putting up points (most games – look away from their Week 7 loss to the Lions) without some of their key contributors in Mike Evans, Bucky Irving, and Chris Godwin.

I don’t think anyone is going to dethrone the Bucs this year, but I also wouldn’t bet them at their current price.

NFC West Odds

The Los Angeles Rams are the favorites to win the NFC West with +130 odds. San Francisco briefly took over as the favorite after upsetting the Rams in Week 5, but they gave it right back after losing to the Bucs in Week 6. The Seahawks are a very close second in the odds, while the 49ers have fallen to third on the board.

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.

Here are some notes on the NFC West odds movement:

• [October 14] The 49ers loss to the similarly shorthanded Bucs in Week 6 saw them give up the title of favorite, allowing the Rams to reclaim the top spot in the division at the time.
• [October 7] After upsetting the Rams on TNF as major underdogs in Week 5, San Francisco took over as the favorite to win the NFC West.
• [September 30] After the 49ers were upset by the Jaguars at home in Week 4, and the Rams recorded a win over a good Colts team, LA became the new favorites to win the NFC West.
• [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.

Arizona Cardinals

• Consensus Division Odds: +18600

It appears the Cardinals are once again an average-at-best team. Kyler Murray has not impressed – Jacoby Brissett has been better in his starts and will now remain the starting QB for the foreseeable future – and their defense isn’t good enough to win them games. I don’t think this team can compete with the Rams or 49ers.

Los Angeles Rams

• Consensus Division Odds: +125

The Rams look good again! Their defense is pressuring the QB and the offense is getting it done. Their season likely relies on the health of Matthew Stafford, but I think they’re deserving of the best odds to win the division.

San Francisco 49ers

• Consensus Division Odds: +327

San Francisco needs to get healthy fast! It was one thing to just be trying to keep up with the Rams, but the Seahawks seem to be contenders as well. Mac Jones has filled in fine for Brock Purdy, but the offense is not nearly as potent with Jones under center, and their defense has suffered some major injuries – Nick Bosa and Fred Warner.

Until the 49ers get healthy and show me they’re still contenders, I would avoid betting them.

Seattle Seahawks

• Consensus Division Odds: +156

The Seahawks defense, specifically the secondary, looks pretty good. Sam Darnold has played just as well as last season, but we all remember what happened down the stretch last year. It’s hard not to expect the same thing this year, and for that reason, I would not bet Seattle to win the division at this price.

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), Indianapolis Colts (AFC South), Denver Broncos (AFC West), Philadelphia Eagles (NFC East), Green Bay Packers (NFC North), Tampa Bay Buccaneers (NFC South), and Los Angeles Rams (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.

Where can I find the best divisional odds across sportsbooks?
