Super Bowl 2019: Saints, Chiefs Favored Ahead of Divisional-Round Matchups

The New Orleans Saints and Kansas City Chiefs are headed to the Super Bowl. 

Or, at least, that's the case if you listen to the oddsmakers.

The Saints (+250) are listed as the Super Bowl LII favorites in Bovada's latest odds, with the Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams sitting at +400. The New England Patriots are considered the worst of the four home teams, listed at +550.

The Patriots and Chiefs are currently listed as five-point favorites in their games against the Los Angeles Chargers and Indianapolis Colts, respectively. It's clear the oddsmakers have a far worse handle on the AFC than the NFC, which the bookmakers believe will be represented by the Saints or Rams.

New Orleans is a nine-point favorite over the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles this weekend. The Rams are seven-point favorites over the Dallas Cowboys.

No team that has played during Wild Card Weekend has reached the Super Bowl since 2013. 

If you're looking strictly at the numbers, though, the Cowboys at +1800 are an incredible bargain. Dallas has won seven of its last eight games and will play a Rams team that stumbled down the stretch. Jared Goff looked dreadful in losses to the Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles in December, and Todd Gurley missed the last two games of the regular season with a knee injury.

The Cowboys also hold regular-season wins over the Saints and Eagles. Dallas' recent postseason history suggests a disappointment is coming, but that number is just enticing enough to make a bet worth it.
