NFL Playoff Odds 2024: Super Bowl Lines for AFC, NFC Contenders After Week 17

After updating the standings with Week 17's results, we'll lay out the latest LVIII odds and spotlight a pair of sleepers who could produce a championship run.

Sleepers Who Might Be Worth Your Wager
Cleveland Browns +3500
Injuries decimated this roster, but stingy defense and offensive fireworks from late-season addition Joe Flacco have improbably kept Cleveland in the championship discussion.
The Browns, who punched their playoff ticket with Thursday's triumph over the New York Jets, have now won four games in a row—the last two by 14-plus points. Flacco, a practice squad addition in November, has topped 300 passing yards each of his last four times out, arguably giving this offense more punch than it even had at full-strength.
"This version of the Browns is absolutely a Super Bowl contender," Charles McDonald wrote for Yahoo Sports. "The quarterback is not infallible, but this is the best version of the team that has appeared all season. The defense doesn't have to carry as much of a load, but it's talented enough to do it when it needs to."
Los Angeles Rams +6000
With some prominent holdovers from their Super Bowl LVI roster and a batch of ascending playmakers, Los Angeles is lurking as a team to watch in this championship race.
The Rams picked up their sixth win in seven tries Sunday, and their lone slipup in this stretch was an overtime loss in Baltimore. Matthew Stafford has 16 touchdown passes against four interceptions in these games. Kyren Williams has five scores in his last three games. Cooper Kupp has a touchdown catch in four of his last five outings. Puka Nacua has cleared 100 receiving yards in consecutive contests.
This defense can be vulnerable to big plays, but it can make plenty of its own. Plus, the explosive nature of its offense gives this group some margin for error. Throw in a championship-winning coach in Sean McVay, and it's hard not to be at least intrigued by L.A.'s formula for success.
