The Baltimore Ravens finished the 2019 regular season on a high note, winning their 12th consecutive game by beating the Pittsburgh Steelers. But in spite of their 14-2 record, all 12 teams in the postseason effectively start over at 0-0 now and the Ravens will have to prove their superiority in the playoffs.
However, thanks to their record and level of dominance over nearly every playoff team currently in the playoffs, oddsmakers are pegging them as the favorites to win Super Bowl LIV and hoist the Lombardi trophy.
According to BetMGM, the Ravens are +235 favorites, which is by far the best odds given to the 12 teams in the playoffs right now. That means if you were to place a $500 bet, you’d take home $1,675 total if Baltimore were to win the Super Bowl.
The next best set of odds goes to the San Francisco 49ers, who are +400. Behind the Ravens in the AFC is the Kansas City Chiefs at +450.
Baltimore took home the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff picture which will give them a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the postseason. They’ll take on the lowest remaining seed from the wild-card round. A win there would put them in the AFC championship game with the winner going to Super Bowl LIV to take on the NFC’s best team.
With each win, the Ravens’ odds are likely going to get worse for bettors. So, if you’re interested in putting down some cash on Baltimore, now would be the time to do it.
