According to BetMGM, the Broncos are being given the third-worst odds of winning the Super Bowl in 2022 at +6600 or a 1.19% win probability. They’re being given the same odds as the Atlanta Falcons (4-12), Washington Football Team (7-9) and New York Giants (6-10) in that respect and are just ahead of the Houston Texans, Detroit Lions, New York Jets and Cincinnati Bengals who are all +8000. Basically, the sportsbooks have pegged the Broncos as among the teams least likely to challenge for a title next season.

One can view that as bad news, the Broncos aren’t expected to do much next season, or as an opportunity. If a fan were to place a $100 wager on the Broncos at the current odds and the team were to go on to win Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles next year, the potential payout would be $6,600. Not a bad payday.
