For the 15th consecutive year, the Green Bay Packers watched the Super Bowl from the comfort of their own homes. However, as has typically been the case during the team’s championship drought, they are among the betting favorites for the upcoming season.

At FanDuel Sportsbook, the Packers have the fifth-shortest odds to win Super Bowl LXI, which will be played at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., on Feb. 14. 2027.

The Seattle Seahawks, who demolished the New England Patriots to win Super Bowl LX on Sunday, are the opening favorites.

Here are the top seven teams in the early odds:

Seattle Seahawks: +750

Los Angeles Rams: +800

Baltimore Ravens: +1200

Buffalo Bills: +1200

Green Bay Packers: +1300

Los Angeles Chargers: +1500

Philadelphia Eagles: +1500

“It's surreal,” Seahawks general manager and De Pere native John Schneider said. “These guys, they literally love each other. They care about one another, they want to play for each other. They were super-confident. They're just a together team and they love each other.”

Rest of the NFC North

While the Chicago Bears are the reigning NFC North champions, they lag well behind the Packers in FanDuel’s Super Bowl odds. Here are the NFC North teams, with where they rank in parentheses.

Green Bay Packers: +1300 (fifth)

Detroit Lions: +1600 (tied, 10th)

Chicago Bears: +2700 (15th)

Minnesota Vikings: +5500 (22nd).

At DraftKings Sportsbook, the Packers and Lions are +1400, tied for the seventh-shortest odds. The Bears are +2500 and the Vikings are +6000.
