It's no surprise that a few of the powerhouse AFC teams in the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens lead the 2025 NFL playoff odds, with the defending Super Bowl odds champion Philadelphia Eagles not far behind.

The Chicago Bears (+160), Cleveland Browns (+700), and Las Vegas Raiders (+310) are the top three teams in terms of ticket percentage from BetMGM
Meanwhile, the Giants (+800), Bears, and Vikings (+130) are drawing the highest handle percentage
The San Francisco 49ers are highly favored to produce a bounce-back season after going 6-11 last year while getting the third-shortest playoff odds in the NFC at -180
The Cincinnati Bengals (-167) are also favored to return to the playoffs after two straight 9-8 seasons, with the most recent coming during a campaign when Cincy boasted the league's sixth-best offense
The Bills and Ravens, who clashed in the AFC divisional round last year, truly sit alone up top as the only two teams getting -500 odds or shorter, ahead of even the defending champion Philadelphia Eagles (-450)
