2015 Super Bowl Odds: Cleveland Browns are 66 to 1

Matthew Emmons-USA TODAY Sports

Vegas must have a thing for the Cleveland Browns -- four teams are projected to have worse odds for next year's Super Bowl.

Despite hiring a new head coach for the second year in a row, the Browns are 66/1 odds for the 2015 Super Bowl. Two years ago, the Browns were 100/1 odds after the Giants beat the Patriots. Last year, the Browns were 66/1 odds after the Ravens beat the 49ers. The odds for the AFC North teams are listed below:

  • Cincinnati Bengals (25/1) - better than last year, when they were 35/1
  • Pittsburgh Steelers (33/1) - worse than last year, when they were 18/1
  • Baltimore Ravens (40/1) - worse than last year, when they were 12/1
  • Cleveland Browns (66/1) - same as last year, when they were 66/1

Does anyone feel like placing bets on the Browns? The odds for the AFC North teams in general are down this year, except for the Bengals. The early favorites for next year's Super Bowl are the Seattle Seahawks (9/2), with the San Francisco 49ers (15/2), Denver Broncos (8/1), and New England Patriots (14/1) to follow.

Related to odds, here are some of the interesting prop bet results from this past Sunday's game, courtesy of Bovada (the outcome of the prop bets can be seen in red):
