NFL 2021-22 Playoffs: Who are the favorites to win Super Bowl 56? List of front runners, odds, predictionGetty
The postseason will be kinder to one team than all the others.

The playoffs are in full swing, and some teams have already seen their journeys come to an end.

Fourteen teams started in the postseason tournament and only eight remain — and only one will be able to raise the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Naturally, some teams are seen to have a better chance to hoist the trophy than others given their performances to this point, but nothing is written in stone until the games are played.

Ahead of the divisional round, here are the odds for each team as well as DAZN News' predicted winner.

NFL Playoffs 2021-22: Super Bowl odds

(All odds via Bet365, as of January 18, 2022)

  • Green Bay Packers +333
  • Kansas City Chiefs +400
  • Buffalo Bills +500
  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers +550
  • Los Angeles Rams +750
  • Tennessee Titans +800
  • San Francisco 49ers +1100
  • Cincinnati Bengals +1400

Super Bowl 56 winner: Prediction

Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs have shaken off their slow start, going 9-1 over their final 10 games of the campaign. They head into a wild-card round encounter against the team given the worst odds (Pittsburgh Steelers), which should allow them to ease into playoff mode and continue building on the momentum of the second half of the regular season.

Patrick Mahomes' experience will come in huge for the Chiefs — if he's up to it there's no better young quarterback in the game today. Evidence points to Mahomes and Kansas City priming for another big playoff run, making them our favourite to come out on top.
