The NFL schedule is now into Week 10 after the Minnesota Vikings defeated the Washington Redskins on Thursday night and now a number of nice games will be going down this weekend and some of the top teams with the best Super Bowl odds will be in action, including the Denver Broncos, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints, while the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs are on a bye.
Many people see the Denver Broncos as the top favorite in the NFL to make and win the Super Bowl even though they are behind the Kansas City Chiefs in the division and things likely will get shaken out as the teams play in the second half. The Chiefs and the Broncos play twice in three weeks coming up and that should be what gets the division set as the back stretch of the season plays out. The Broncos will be playing another AFC West divisional team on Sunday in the San Diego Chargers and while that game will be on the road and John Fox is out with a heart issue, they are likely to be the favorites.
The Seattle Seahawks are playing a playoff team from last season in the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, but they will need a miracle to get to the playoffs at 2-6, making the game a big one that the Seahawks should win. The team has been under fire as a Super Bowl pick the past two weeks, as they had close games with the Rams and Buccaneers and that makes this matchup even more interesting. The Seahawks were the sexy pick at the beginning of the season, but after losing Sidney Rice and looking pedestrian in the past couple weeks, things could change on Sunday if they don't pull off a win.
The New Orleans Saints are coming into the game on Sunday night after a bad defeat by the NY Jets and now they will face off against the Dallas Cowboys. The team has a tough schedule in the back stretch and they play a streak of four road games in five weeks starting in a few weeks and that comes after the next two games against the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers. The playoff position for the team likely will be decided with a stretch of the Atlanta Falcons, Seattle Seahawk, Carolina Panthers and Rams before playing the Panthers again starting up in Week 12 and that should put the team on track to the back stretch of the season.
