DETROIT - The dust has hardly settled on the field of Superbowl XL, but speculation on who will win the next Big Game has already started. Is it a surprise that the favorites aren't the
The Colts are favored to win Superbowl XLI Pittsburg Steelers? According to the oddsmakers at Sportsbook.com, the Indianapolis Colts are the leading contenders to win the Vince Lombardi trophy. The Colts 2007 Super Bowl odds are listed at 4-1 with Super Bowl XL Champions, the Pittsburgh Steelers at 8-1 and Denver, New England, San Diego and Seattle rounding out the top spots at 10-1.
Despite losing to eventual Super Bowl champs Pittsburgh, Peyton Manning will once again lead Indianapolis' charge and fans are confident the team will return at full strength next season, wiser and more experienced.
"The Colts still have the best QB in football and some people think too much attention and focus was put on their run for a perfect season. They never seemed to regroup after their first loss and the personal tragedies that befell Tony Dungy," said Alex Czajkowski, Marketing Director, Sportsbook.com. "There's no reason to believe, at this point, that bettors will sour on the Colts. They'll be backing Indianapolis again next year."
In the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks are tied with the Carolina Panthers to take the conference title at odds of 7-2. Chicago, Dallas, New York, Philadelphia and Washington are in hot pursuit at 7-1. Indianapolis is the favorite at 2-1 in the AFC followed by the Steelers at 9-2 and Denver, New England and San Diego all at 6-1.
"There could still be some huge factors that could shift the odds in coming months", added Czajkowski. "Possible trades, the unknown injury status of Donovan McNabb and the always unpredictable Terrell Owens could all change the landscape significantly."
