AFC/NFC South odds to win Super Bowl XLI

AFC/NFC South odds to win Super Bowl XLI Bet on which division (AFC South and NFC South combined in one wager) the Super Bowl XLI Champion will come from at Bodog.com, the world wide leader in online sports betting, casino gaming and poker action.

The Indianapolis Colts (12-4) clinched the AFC South with a record of 12-4. Peyton Manning did not miss a beat this season even without having Edgerin James to block for him. Manning threw for over 4,000 yards for a record breaking seventh season in a row. The Colts looked unstoppable at the beginning of the the year, there was even talk of going undefeated, however they struggled in the second half dropping 4 games.

The big question mark this year is the defense. Indianapolis was ranked the 3rd worst team in the league, giving up 360 points. Assuming Manning does not choke again, the Colts have a decent shot this year to get the AFC Championship game. The Indianapolis Colts host the Kansas City Chiefs at 4:30 PM EST in the Saturday AFC Wild Card Game.

AFC/NFC South Division Betting Odds +400

The New Orleans Saints (10-6) clinched the NFC South in dominate fashion. Drew Brees threw for over 4,000 yards providing early on that his shoulder rebounded nicely from off season surgery. Brees thrived in the offense along with 2005 Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush. Bush proved his game translated in the NFL by racking up 6 touchdowns in his rookie season.

Deuce McAllister was able to gain over 1,000 yards this season as well. The Saints can go far in the playoffs with this offensive tandem. The defensive unit stepped up its play in the last six games of the season holding opponents to under 17 points in five of them. The only exception was in the season finale verses the Carolina Panthers when they sat most of their starters to prevent injuries. We think Brees and company will go deep in the playoffs. The New Orleans Saints earned a first round bye in the NFL playoffs.

The Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints offer bettors great value at +400 so we recommend taking the AFC/NFC South Division.

With the end of the 2006 NFL regular season and the start of the 2007 playoff season upon us, sports bettors across the globe look for other various types of wagers to bet on in an effort to appease their desire for action.
