Super Bowl odds line movement this week

Risers

Lions Detroit Lions (+480 to +350)

At this point in the season, what more can we say about the Detroit Lions? They’ve emerged as the favorites to win Super Bowl 59. 

Yes, they leapfrogged the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs after a 52-6 dismantling of the Jacksonville Jaguars.  

This is a team built to attack in every way imaginable. With explosive talent at the skill positions, they can dissect defenses both through the air and on the ground.

They are the rightful favorite with their Super Bowl odds shortening from +480 to +350. 

Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers (+2,800 to +2,100)

Part of me wants to believe the Pittsburgh Steelers are legitimate Super Bowl contenders, especially as their odds shorten further from +2,800 to +2,100. But another part of me can't shake the feeling that this team's success might be smoke and mirrors.

They needed two rare missed field goals from Justin Tucker — arguably the most reliable kicker in NFL history — and three turnovers from Baltimore just to eke out an 18-16 victory at home. 

However, credit where it’s due: the Steelers now hold a two-game lead in the AFC North and are in a position to secure a home playoff date.

Chargers Los Angeles Chargers (+4,500 to +2,500)

When Jim Harbaugh accepted the head coaching job in Los Angeles, many doubted whether his style would translate to the NFL.

Well, through 10 games, the Los Angeles Chargers are 7-3 and playing some fantastic football on both sides of the ball. 

They own the league's No.1 scoring defense and a balanced offense that can score points in bunches. 

Thanks to their Monday Night win vs. Cincinnati, the Chargers are bolting up the board, with their odds shortening from +4,500 to +2,500. 

Fallers

49ers San Francisco 49ers (+1,000 to +1,700)

The San Francisco 49ers entered the season with expectations of contending for the Super Bowl. However, the injury bug had other ideas. 

The early news of Christian McCaffrey being out for an extended period killed the mood in the 49ers camp, and with guys like Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel missing time as well, the offense has never really been in sync. 

A loss to the Seahawks in Week 11 killed any momentum the 49ers had and it also set them three games back of a wild card.

Bengals Cincinnati Bengals (+4,500 to +9,000)

If the Cincinnati Bengals had even a league-average defense, they would not be 4-7 and all but out of the playoff picture.

Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase have done everything in their power to win football games, and it's all gone to waste. 

With Sunday's loss, the Bengals now find themselves a long way out of a playoff spot, with limited time to make up any ground.
