2026 NFL Odds: Which Teams Are Favored To Win Their Divisions After Week 9?

Winning the division is the first step toward making a Super Bowl run, and every year, a handful of teams exceed expectations, while others fail to live up to the hype. 

In 2025, the Patriots, Steelers, Jaguars, Broncos, Eagles, Bears, Panthers and Seahawks won their respective divisions. 

Seven of those eight teams were new division winners. Only the Eagles repeated as division champions from the previous year.

So who will repeat in 2026, or will a new group of division champions emerge? Let’s take a look at the odds to win all eight NFL divisions after Week 9 at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Nov. 10.

Bills: -850
Patriots: +600
Jets: +15000
Dolphins: +15000 

Preseason odds: Bills -125, Patriots +120, Jets +1900, Dolphins +4000

What To Know: Either the Patriots or Bills have won the AFC East every year since 2008. Buffalo claimed five straight division titles from 2020 through 2024 before New England took the crown in 2025. Nine weeks into 2026, the Bills are 7-1 in Joe Brady’s first season as head coach, well ahead of the second-place Patriots at 5-4. Buffalo is one of just two teams that opened the season as a division-favorite and currently remains that way. Ironically, New England is 3-0 in the division while Buffalo is 0-1, with that single loss on the year coming at home against the Pats. Go figure. 

Bengals: -230 
Steelers: +240 
Browns: +1600 
Ravens: +3000

Preseason odds: Ravens -115, Bengals +194, Steelers +510, Browns +2100

What To Know: The AFC North division has been closely contested in recent years, with Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Cincinnati having each won it twice in the past six seasons. Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow both missed significant time with injuries in 2025, and now, Jackson is hurt again, which is why the Ravens opened as the favorite but are now last on the board. Cincy and Pittsburgh are both 6-2, and the Steelers own a win over the Bengals, with their second matchup set for Week 10. Both teams have won four in a row.

Jaguars: -1200 
Texans: +700 
Colts: +15000
Titans: +15000 

Preseason odds: Texans +110, Jaguars +245, Colts +380, Titans +800

What To Know: The Jaguars and Texans have each won the AFC South twice in the past four seasons. In 2025, Liam Coen led Jacksonville to a 13-4 record and the division title in his first year with the team. The Jaguars have carried that momentum into 2026, starting 6-2 to take the early division lead, several games ahead of 3-5 Houston, which began the season 0-4 but has won three of its last four.

Broncos: -140 
Chiefs: +120 
Raiders: +4000 
Chargers: +15000

Preseason odds: Chiefs +160, Chargers +190, Broncos +225, Raiders +2000

What To Know: The Chiefs won nine straight AFC West titles from 2016 through 2024 before the Broncos took the division in 2025. Nine weeks into this season, Denver is 7-2 and now favored to repeat as the division winner. The two teams have already split the season series, each winning on their home field, but the Chiefs have lost two of their last three after starting the year 5-0. The Broncos, meanwhile, have won five in a row.

Giants: -220 
Cowboys: +250
Commanders: +900
Eagles: +12000 

Preseason odds: Eagles +115, Cowboys +235, Commanders +460, Giants +600

What To Know: The Eagles have won the NFC East in each of the past two seasons and three of the past four — but it looks like that streak is gonna end. Jalen Hurts is out for the season (blood clots) and Philly has lost seven in a row after beginning the year 2-0. Surprisingly, New York began the year at the bottom of the board and is now atop it, even with starting QB Jaxson Dart out for the year (knee). The Giants (5-2-1) are the only team in the division with a winning record, with Dallas in second (4-5).

Bears: +144 
Lions: +245 
Vikings: +330 
Packers: +510 

Preseason odds: Lions +180, Packers +215, Bears +305, Vikings +510

What To Know: Every NFC North team has won the division at least once in the past five seasons, and all four finished with a winning record last year. Through nine weeks, this is the only division in which every team is above .500, with the 6-3 Packers in last place. Talk about a gauntlet. Chicago is favored to win it, but is the only team that has yet to capture a division win (0-2).

Buccaneers: +154
Panthers: +225 
Falcons: +340 
Saints: +520 

Preseason odds: Buccaneers +164, Saints +265, Panthers +310, Falcons +425

What To Know: The Buccaneers won four straight NFC South titles from 2021 through 2024 before the Panthers took the division in 2025 with an 8-9 record, their first title since 2015. Tampa Bay (3-6) entered 2026 as the division favorite and is the only team besides Buffalo that opened as the favorite and is there after nine weeks. An 0-4 start almost cooked Tampa Bay, but it has won two of its last three and is only one loss behind Carolina and New Orleans. Every team in this division is at least two games below .500.

49ers: -650 
Seahawks: +820
Rams: +900
Cardinals: +15000 

Preseason odds: Rams +100, Seahawks +205, 49ers +305, Cardinals +10000

What To Know: The NFC West sent three 12-win teams into the 2025 playoffs: Seattle, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The Seahawks and Rams went on to meet in the NFC Championship Game. The division has rotated among those three teams since 2016, with the Rams winning four titles and the Seahawks and 49ers winning three apiece. Arizona hasn’t won it since 2015. San Francisco is the heavy favorite after nine weeks, sitting at 7-1 with wins over all three division foes.
